Dr. Witty’s journey into the world of non-invasive therapeutics began when she faced her own health challenges with HPV and Cervical Cancer. Frustrated by the limitations of modern Western medicine, she sought alternatives rooted in her Garifuna Culture. By healing herself through non-conventional methods, she was inspired to help others on their healing journeys. This led to the development of Nuaceutical products, blending indigenous healing principles with scientific disciplines.
