Paula Vetter


Paula Vetter is a Board Certified Family Nurse Practitioner with more than 30 years of experience in Traditional and Holistic Medicine. She was a critical care instructor at the Cleveland Clinic for more than a decade, taught nursing at two Ohio colleges, and practiced primary care in a busy family practice in NE Ohio for 18 years.

In 2003, Paula opened her Integrative Medicine Practice, Profound Wellness. She is dedicated to understanding and treating the whole person and focuses on getting to the root cause of health challenges rather than merely suppressing symptoms with drugs. She is also a Certified Herbalist, EFT Practitioner and Reiki Master/Teacher.

Paula moved to Paso Robles, CA with her husband in 2010, to be near their daughter (and to escape those memorable NE Ohio snow storms!) She brought her clinical skills to Templeton, CA, practicing natural allergy elimination, energy medicine and integrative wellness coaching. One of her patients introduced her to the world of CIRS and within the next year, several of her patients encouraged her to pursue certification in the internationally acclaimed Shoemaker Protocol.

Paula’s goal is to educate, inspire and empower individuals and families to take charge of their health and transform their lives. The Shoemaker Protocol is a perfect vehicle to implement that philosophy.

Profound Wellness utilizes an innovative Team Approach to CIRS. Our skilled professionals provide the medical, environmental, educational and emotional support that are so critical to individuals and families. We will help you chart your path to Optimal Health based on Dr. Shoemaker’s experience with more than 10,000 patients. An evidence-based protocol, with proven success in thousands of patients, will guide your personalized, compassionate, results focused care.

Paula is working with Laurie Rossi RN, who is a CIRS survivor herself. Laurie provides case management, patient education, and ongoing support groups for CIRS clients.
