Company mission
To build the most trusted and simple practice management platform, designed for the unique needs of Health & Wellness practitioners around the world so that they have the tools they need to do the work they love.
Our take
Professionals in the health and wellness sector often find themselves burning out when trying to build a practice. Practice Better was launched in 2014 by nutrition professional Nathalie Garcia, who experiences the same problem as overwhelming administrative work was preventing her from being able to treat clients as best she could.
The company is comprised of a cloud-based practice management platform that allows health and nutrition professionals to better control their workflows, from scheduling and invoicing, to health programs and telehealth. Growth since then has been slow, steady and fairly organic, and Practice Better is now used by independent practitioners on all continents.
However, Practice Better recently raised its first significant round of funding, which will be used to expand its team, further its platform and increase partnerships. It will be interesting to see this impact capital can have on this already growing business.
