About The Pretty Hot Mess, LLC
The Pretty Hot Mess is a wellness boutique located in Glens Falls, NY.  It was founded in 2018 by local resident and former Nurse Practitioner, Angel Isaac.  Its purpose is to share the ancient wisdom of how to help maximize your health through the utilization of Essential Oils and other natural supplements. PHM does not offer medical consultations but we will discuss all the customers’ needs on an individual basis. We provide education, information and assistance with ancient remedies and spiritual practices in our retail shop.

My Philosophy
I have long held a global belief that the human body possesses the innate ability to heal itself, mind, body and spirit. I also believe that in today’s world of fast paced, high stress lifestyles, sometimes those inherent reparative mechanisms inherent in each of us needs some support. At PHM, I work with ancient remedies, crystals, and spiritual practices to help maximize the health of each individual customer. Natural healers don’t isolate body parts or diseases. We see the interconnections in the human body and work to gently nudge all pieces back into balance. My goal at PHM is to help bring the natural healing mechanisms within each and every one of us back into balance in a way that is gentle and natural by uniting modern science with long-established traditions and ancient healing practices.


Confidentiality, Code of Ethics, and Practice Information
All information discussed with myself or PHM staff is completely confidential and will be treated with the utmost respect and care. Due to HIPPA privacy regulations, information shared with PHM will not be discussed or disclosed with any other person without the written consent of the signed individual. Myself nor my staff are not medical doctors.  We do not diagnose, treat, prevent, or cure any diseases.  At PHM, we believe that ordinary people, by ordinary means, can have access to healthy living. You can be empowered to maximize your own health  with plants, crystals, energy, and spiritual means found in nature. We are here for educational purposes only and to assist you in finding natural alternatives to add to your daily routine. We strongly encourage you to discuss all of your medical needs with a licensed medical provider.

Disclosure
Natural oils and CBD are generally safe. At PHM, I prefer to work with plants and oils that are generally recognized as safe. However, there are some cases where special care and consideration must be taken. It is your responsibility to fully disclose any medical conditions and any medications or supplements currently in use. I also recommend that you inform your doctor of all herbal and nutritional supplements you are taking. In the event of an adverse reaction, immediately discontinue use and call your doctor.

Essential oils and CBD should not be used in pregnancy or lactation without expert advice. If you become pregnant, I recommend you immediately stop using any natural products and call to schedule an appointment with your health care provider.
