Integrative Medicine for a Conscious, Outcome-Driven Future.
Bridging medicine, integrative science, and consciousness to reduce suffering, improve outcomes, and build scalable models of care. Intro / Positioning I translate integrative medicine, sound-based interventions, and consciousness-informed methodologies into practical care, professional training, and prevention models that work within real-world systems. As Founder of You Can Thrive!, I partner with hospitals, clinicians, communities, and mission-aligned investors to restore resilience where it is most needed—at the intersection of medicine, humanity, and innovation. Book a private session, invite me to speak, or explore our research and soundscapes.
Luana DeAngelis is a pioneer in integrative medicine, holistic health, and prevention-based care, with more than twenty years of leadership advancing interdisciplinary models that improve patient outcomes across clinical and community settings. Her work stands at the intersection of medicine, integrative science, and consciousness-based care—a dimension urgently needed in modern healthcare systems, yet still largely absent from institutional and structural models. Luana’s approach brings these elements into alignment, translating subtle methodologies into grounded, ethical, and outcome-driven care.
As the founder of You Can Thrive!, a five-star rated nonprofit organization, Luana designed one of the earliest volunteer-driven, multidisciplinary integrative care models for survivorship and community wellness. Program outcomes were published in collaboration with the Society of Integrative Oncology and expanded through IRB-approved research at NewYork-Presbyterian / Columbia University Irving Medical Center, demonstrating statistically significant improvements in symptoms and quality of life within just four clinical visits. This work positioned integrative and holistic interventions not as adjunct luxuries, but as essential components of patient-centered, prevention-focused healthcare.

TESTIMONIALS
I met Luana at a time in my life where I was physically, emotionally and spiritually depleted. I had tried to get “sober” many times before. In some ways I had been searching to heal from my addictions, my relationships and my way of thinking. I could not get out of my own way. I had tried many modalities of treatment, therapy, rehab, 12 step programs and psychiatrists. I felt as if I kept finding myself feeling sicker for over a decade. I am so grateful for Luana. I can’t recommend Luana’s services more. She has guided me and has helped me overcome my thoughts processes that kept me in same cycles. She coaches me where i can bring the work that she is doing into my daily life . I really can’t put into words what Luana has done. She is the real deal. My favorite gift to give anyone in my life is to put them in contact with Luana. If you are ready to be healed and to let go of what isn’t serving you anymore I know Luana can help you."

Luana DeAngelis is a Reiki Master who has amazing healing powers. I had 7 large and numerous smaller cancerous tumors in my leg due to a very aggressive high-grade spindle sarcoma. During the first four months of being her client, an MRI showed that all the tumors have substantially decreased in size, and the surgeon who talked about amputating my entire leg thinks the tumors are now at least 90% dead.
The oncologist claims that my results are that of two in 100 patients; and that out of those two, I’m the “shining star”—getting amazing results. I attribute much of these remarkable results to Luana’s healing work. After one of my sessions with Luana my leg that had me shaking with pain felt totally normal.
Additionally, Luana is very knowledgable about all types of cancers, and is up on all the most recent scientific study results. She is giving, caring, compassionate, and makes you feel right at home. I highly recommend her."

I had surgical Reiki with Luana during my mastectomy, lymph node bypass and reconstruction. I know that my body went through so much, but I didn’t need one pain pill during my recovery, either in the hospital or when I returned home. I can only attribute that to the Reiki, because after I had knee surgery I was in need of pain pills for months. Thanks so much!"

I met Luana through volunteering at You Can Thrive! I’ve had the opportunity to work with her privately with several reiki / theta / intuitive sessions and found not only the actual sessions, but the residual affects (if you will) in between each session to be an amazing experience! Meaning, I observed visual, emotional, and physical changes in between each session. It was so powerful that when I reported the changes back to Luana, she was able to ground me and explain from a scientific perspective exactly what was happening as a result of her energy work. She has a keen ability to remove any inhibitions and clearly articulate expectations prior to undergoing each session which makes the experience most powerful. Her demeanor was professional throughout the entire process. She was intuitive to my emotions and spiritual well being which added to the effectiveness. Luana truly is altruistic with her gift!
