Who We Are
The national Guiding Star Project was born out of the conviction that women deserve far more than the current standard for mainstream women’s medical care.
Guiding Star Marshalltown is part of a national movement to create a wholistic, truly empowering healthcare alternative.
We believe there’s a problem with today’s feminine medical care
The looping message from the mainstream medical community teaches women their natural bodily state is not enough. They teach women they must change the natural, normal functions of their bodies to squeeze into societal molds. Standard medical protocols today aren’t concerned with what’s best for a whole woman’s health, and women and babies are the ones who suffer.
The modern mainstream healthcare culture makes women feel alone and uncomfortable with their bodies. Many practitioners are too preoccupied to take time to connect women to the resources they need and empower each woman with the message that she has the strength to be the hero of her story.
Guiding Star Marshalltown’s solution: Wholistic women’s healthcare
We serve women with a whole-life approach that honors their bodies and hearts. We believe each woman who comes to our center is much greater than a number or a problem to be solved. She is a natural wonder who deserves care that actually addresses her whole body needs.
Guiding Star Marshalltown believes that we should honor women by helping them understand their natural design and teaching them healthy Fertility Awareness-Based Methods.
We empower women to learn about, embrace, and love their natural bodies. We greet women on various stages along their individual journeys and welcome them into the Guiding Star Project community.
