Beth Smith, is a York County native and comes from a family of community thinkers and business developers.  It was seemingly natural for Beth's first call to service be in the United States Air Force. It was there that she served her country for 10 years as an air traffic controller in a radar facility.  This career exposed her to many stressful days at work and the true understanding of the word coordination.

​

Deciding to learn the true meaning of doing a 180, Beth left Air Traffic Control to explore the "less stressful" world of Massage Therapy. She earned her license and after moving back to York, she joined a large, local nonprofit hospital and developed their alternative therapy department in York and Adams Counties. Beth was a awarded a grant and developed a class for people suffering from chronic pain in which they were taught alternative therapies. This class developed a direct link between neurology, pain management, physiatry, physical therapy and her own department of alternative therapies.

​

Beth also worked with hospital management and local businesses to develop health fairs for employees to learn alternative therapies for stress reduction and pain management.

Beth looks forward to helping York and the surrounding areas with the same compassion that leads her heart, through education and growth for a community in need.
