Saffron & Sage Turns 7: 7 Facts about our Founder

As Saffron & Sage celebrates its seventh anniversary, we take pride in highlighting the journey and achievements of our founder, Cristin. Her vision and resilience have shaped our holistic healthcare practice into what it is today.

Here are seven facts about Cristin that illustrate her remarkable influence and dedication to wellness.

1. Overcoming Health Challenges

Cristin’s path to founding Saffron & Sage was profoundly impacted by her personal health crisis. Diagnosed with four tumors in her neck and thyroid, Cristin’s life would take an unexpected turn altering the trajectory of her life and work. Instead of succumbing to adversity, Cristin used her experience to fuel her vision for holistic healthcare. This pivotal experience gave birth to Saffron & Sage, which serves as a blueprint for a new era of comprehensive healthcare, integrating root-cause diagnostic techniques, spirituality, and subconscious reprogramming to cater to each individual's unique needs.

2. Recognized Leadership

Cristin’s innovative approach to holistic healthcare has earned her a spot among the Top 17 Most Influential Leaders in San Diego. This recognition underscores her commitment to advancing wellness practices and her impact on the community. Her leadership is characterized by a dedication to promoting bio-individuality, ensuring that each treatment plan is tailored to the unique needs of every patient.

3. Patient-Centric Clinic Design

Saffron & Sage stands out as the first clinic designed by a patient for patients. Cristin’s vision was to create a space that reflects the needs and experiences of both patients and leaders. The clinic's design is not only functional but also fosters an environment conducive to healing and personal growth. This approach highlights her commitment to integrating holistic healthcare principles into the very fabric of the clinic’s operation.

4. Youngest Leader in Healthcare

Cristin’s entrepreneurial spirit and leadership are evident in her role as one of the youngest leaders in the healthcare industry. Her ability to blend youthful energy with seasoned expertise allows her to drive innovation in holistic health practices. This unique position enables her to advocate for a more integrative approach to wellness, one that addresses both physical and emotional aspects of health.

5. Personal Journey Reflected in Clinic Treatments

Every treatment offered at Saffron & Sage is a reflection of Cristin’s personal holistic health journey. Her firsthand experiences with various therapies have informed the services provided at the clinic. This personal touch ensures that the treatments are not only effective but also deeply rooted in an understanding of individual wellness needs.

6. Early Aspirations of Holistic Skincare

Long before founding Saffron & Sage, Cristin harbored a vision of opening a spa focused on treating skincare from within. Her struggle with cystic acne led her to explore the connection between gut health and skin elimination. This early aspiration laid the groundwork for her holistic approach, which now encompasses a broad range of treatments designed to address internal health issues that impact overall wellness and has lead to the formulation of the Saffron & Sage skincare collection.

7. Harper: The Resident Therapy Dog

Cristin’s pup, Harper, is more than just a pet; she is an integral part of the Saffron & Sage team. As the clinic's resident therapy dog, Harper plays a role in various wellness sessions, including breathwork and spiritual direction. Her presence adds a comforting and supportive element to the clinic, enhancing the overall patient experience.
