Jennifer Franco started Society of Wellness Nutritional Systems initially because there was such a high demand to learn how to utilize and implement her Functional Assessment System from practices across the country. Then after beginning this journey of teaching hundreds of practices in person how to effectively follow a systematic interview, report of findings, and follow up procedures she recognized there was a gap in online educational content that ultimately capped her ability to make a scalable impact on the health of society nationwide. After a methodical review of her own journey of education and experience she decided to bring many of her own mentors onto the faculty of SOWN to fill that gap.

Now, together with many of the mentors and educators who have fueled and brought Jen to the success she sees in her practice, SOWN is delivering a full offering of comprehensive online programs. This will truly give thousands of practitioners around the world and millions of patients the ability to join the ranks and live in a Society of Wellness!

Dr. Scott Vrzal

DC, DBBP, DMBBP, DMBM, DAAIM

Dr. Scott Vrzal was born in Los Altos, California and graduated from Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in December 1993. Behind faith and family, he is an avid exerciser and has successfully competed in bodybuilding and bike racing. With his already voracious appetite for fitness, coupled with his desire for the pursuit of health, holistic Chiropractic was his uncontested choice in career.

“I’ve chosen to devote my life to the healing arts because I know of no greater joy than to be a part of transforming lives. It’s sad that people are often stifled, hopeless, limited or suffering needlessly. It deeply touches my soul to help them. I am grateful to choose this life because these gifts and life experiences have provided me the opportunity to have a dramatic impact on many wonderful lives with my problem-solving breakthrough system.”
He’s been practicing kinesiology for nearly 30 years and has worked diligently to come up with an approach to patient driven care. In addition to developing the Vrzal Technique, he travels across the U.S. educating practitioners on how to use this method with their patients. Dr. Vrzal integrates bio-mechanical, nutritional, and environmental wellness plus mental/emotional stress reduction techniques – all developed by the greatest minds in these fields.
