With over two decades of experience in both nursing and massage therapy, I bring a clinical yet holistic perspective to the intersection of cannabis, wellness, and skincare. I've been immersed in the cannabis industry since 2010 and began teaching in 2017, committed to educating others on safe, effective, and evidence-informed practices. As a nurse of 24 years and a licensed massage therapist for 19 years, my teaching is grounded in both science and compassion.

In 2014, I founded Primal Therapeutics, one of the first mobile cannabis massage businesses in the country, dedicated to bringing plant medicine directly to clients in a personalized and therapeutic setting. Building on that mission, I launched Primal Healing in 2019, a line of organic hemp-based skincare products that reflect my commitment to quality, integrity, and the healing power of nature. Since creating both businesses, I have been featured in many publications.

I have been providing education at the largest spa conferences in the nation since 2017. My courses focus on cannabis massage, integrative wellness, and topical skincare applications, offering students real-world insights from the front lines of both healthcare and plant medicine. I believe in empowering practitioners to elevate their skills and their self-care, and I bring a deep respect for the healing potential of the human touch and the cannabis plant.

My teaching philosophy is simple: never stop learning. I’m honored to share what I’ve learned—and continue to learn—with others dedicated to growth, healing, and professional excellence.

Dr. Teresa Owens Gardner Tyson, DNP, MSN, FNP-BC, FAANP, is a preeminent figure in rural healthcare. She currently leads St. Mary’s Health Wagon as its President and CEO. Born into the modest surroundings of a coal miner's family in Appalachia, her upbringing was steeped in firsthand experiences of the healthcare challenges that pervade rural communities. These formative years laid the groundwork for her unwavering dedication to advancing medical care in underserved areas.

Under Dr. Tyson's visionary leadership, the Health Wagon has flourished, evolving from a mobile clinic into a comprehensive healthcare network. This network now proudly includes two stationary clinics, several mobile units, a pharmacy, and a dental clinic, serving as a lifeline for thousands of Appalachian residents. The effectiveness of this expansion was highlighted in 2024 when the organization managed nearly 29,000 patient interactions, demonstrating its critical role in the community.

Dr. Tyson has been instrumental in integrating innovative technologies to enhance healthcare delivery. Her pioneering efforts in telehealth have dramatically increased access to specialist care for isolated communities, mitigating the need for long-distance travel, which many residents cannot afford. Additionally, she introduced the first FAA-approved drone delivery system for pharmaceuticals in the U.S., revolutionizing how essential medications are distributed in remote areas.

The Move Mountains Medical Mission, spearheaded annually by Dr. Tyson, is a cornerstone of her healthcare philosophy. This event provides comprehensive, free healthcare services to thousands, addressing acute medical needs while emphasizing the importance of preventative care. Her belief that healthcare is a fundamental human right is manifest in her commitment to these extensive outreach efforts, which aim to elevate overall community health standards.

Dr. Tyson’s initiatives have not only reshaped healthcare delivery in Appalachian, Virginia, but have also captured the attention of a broader audience. Her work has earned her spots in national and international discussions, where she advocates for rural health issues at platforms such as the United Nations and the World Health Organization. Her innovative approaches and tangible results have garnered her numerous accolades and have made her a respected voice in global health conversations.

In addition to her leadership and operational roles, Dr. Tyson is passionate about education and mentorship. She has recognized the need for sustained medical services in rural areas and has established educational collaborations with over 50 institutions. These programs immerse students in the realities of rural healthcare, preparing them to continue the mission of the Health Wagon and ensure its longevity and impact.

Looking forward, Dr. Tyson is dedicated to further expanding the capabilities of the Health Wagon. Her plans include enhancing diagnostic services, increasing the availability of specialist care, and incorporating advanced medical technologies. These initiatives are designed to provide holistic and continuous healthcare to Appalachia, ensuring that the region’s residents receive the best possible care.

Teresa Tyson’s personal story is deeply woven into her professional endeavors; as a mother and grandmother, her family-centric values profoundly influence her approach to healthcare. Her work transcends the provision of medical services, fostering a legacy of health equity and compassionate care that will impact Appalachia for generations to come. Through her leadership, she ensures that no resident in her beloved mountains is left behind in pursuing health and well-being.
