Groton Wellness was founded by Dr. Bob Evans and his wife, Jean Nordin-Evans, as a dental practice which believes that a person’s teeth are integral to the health of the entire body. This underlying principle is practiced in adult and pediatric dentistry as well as in the orthodontic department. The vision grew to include medical treatments, a therapeutic spa and a wellness café that serves nutritious, whole-food dishes in which many of the ingredients are purchased from local farms. Groton Wellness is the first holistic center of its kind in the United States with professionals in preventative and functional medicine and dental care. It has had enormous success treating chronic health issues such as Lyme disease, hormonal imbalance and internal toxicity.
