Welcome to NUA Wellness Institute
Where integrative psychiatry, functional medicine, and ancestral healing come together to restore balance-
mind, body, spirit.
Choose Your Path
Psychiatry & Mental Health
Comprehensive psychiatric care for children, teens, and adults.
Evidence-based evaluations, medication management, and compassionate support.
Functional & Preventative Medicine
Personalized, whole-body healing that uncovers what’s driving your symptoms and supports long-term wellness from the inside out.
Detox & Wellness Services
Gentle detox services including infrared sauna, colonics, and weight-loss support for a lighter, more balanced you.
At NUA Wellness Institute, we believe the ultimate goal in this life is to arrive at a place where your heart feels as light as a feather.
That level of lightness comes from true alignment — mentally, physically, spiritually, and energetically.
We understand that when your mind is weighed down by anxiety, depression, or patterns that no longer serve you, your quality of life shifts.
And when your body is backed up with inflammation, toxins, hormonal imbalance, or stress, that heaviness becomes even harder to carry.
But heaviness is not your destiny — healing is.
At NUA, we help you lighten your life by nurturing the mind, body, gut, and spirit together. Through detoxification, mental health care, root-cause functional medicine, and emotional-spiritual alignment, we support you in releasing what weighs you down from the inside out.
Because when the mind is clearer, the body is balanced, and the gut is aligned, the spirit finally has space to breathe. And as humans, we feed the spirit through purpose — which becomes easier to access when you feel mentally and physically well.
That’s why NUA meets you exactly where you are.
Through community wellness education, group healing circles, 1:1 coaching, preventative and functional medicine, detox and weight-management programs, and psychiatric care, we support every layer of your healing journey — at your pace, in your season, and in your truth.
If you’re ready to feel lighter — truly lighter —
come heal with us.

Meet the Founder
Ine-Ibiye Saka, FNP-BC, PMHNP-BC
Ine-Ibiye Saka is a double board-certified Nurse Practitioner whose journey began with the creation of Empathy Wellness Center, a practice rooted in compassion, accessibility, and truly seeing the whole person.
Over time, her mission expanded as she naturally found herself treating not just symptoms, but the deeper emotional, metabolic, and spiritual causes beneath them. Long before beginning her formal functional medicine certification, Ine-ibiye’s work was already grounded in root-cause healing — a philosophy that continues to shape every service she offers.
As she advances her training in functional and integrative medicine, her vision has evolved into the NUA Wellness Institute — a sanctuary where the mind, body, gut, and spirit are aligned to help individuals live with clarity, purpose, and a heart that feels light as a feather.
Her purpose is simple:
to walk with you on your healing journey — at your pace, in your season, and in your truth.
