ROOT — 6-Month Transformation
You Have Your Results.
Now Let's Fix What Actually Heals.
Root is a six-month program. Your month-one private coaching visit is a full 60-minute onboarding deep dive built around your history, goals, daily reality, and available test results; new results are integrated as they arrive. Months 2 and 3 each include a 30-minute one-on-one touch-in, and a separate 30-minute graduation call closes the program at the end of month 6. Personalized supplement recommendations run through months 1–3; daily group coaching and your proactive concierge continue for all six months.
The pill was never the point.
For fifty years we've been trained that there's a pill for every ill — so people hunt for the right supplement, and their cabinets become graveyards of bottles that changed nothing. Your body is a self-healing system. It heals when you fix what's actually driving the problem: the food that inflames you, the stress stuck in your nervous system, the sleep you're missing, the terrain in your gut. Root does it in the right order — food, lifestyle, and coaching first — with supplements in their honest, supporting place.
How Healing Actually Works
Four Levers, In the Right Order
🥗
1. Food First — Your Nutrition Is the Medicine
Our licensed nutritionist builds your nutrition from your actual results — the specific foods driving your inflammation, and the ones that rebuild you. This is the biggest lever there is, and it's where we start.
🧘
2. Your Nervous System & Lifestyle
Stress, sleep, breath, and the daily Urban Monk practices that pull your body out of survival mode. This is where the deep, lasting healing happens — the part no bottle can do for you.
🤝
3. Coaching That Changes What You Do
An assigned coach who owns your case, daily live group coaching, and a proactive concierge — because knowing isn't doing, and you were never meant to do this alone. The relationship lives in the room, every week.
💊
4. Supplements — In Their Right Place
Personalized supplement recommendations run through months 1–3 and are informed by your history and test results, with clinical review for safety. While you are actively enrolled in Root, recommended supplements are passed through at our cost with no markup, and you buy them yourself.
Physician-Ordered Testing

Common Questions
Why aren't supplements included in the price?
Personalized supplement recommendations are provided during months 1–3 and informed by your health history and test results. When supplements are useful, a licensed registered nurse and the concierge medical team review system-generated recommendations for safety considerations, potential interactions, and appropriate follow-up. While you are actively enrolled in Root, supplements and physician-ordered labs are passed through at our cost with no markup. Standalone lab services outside an Urban Monk membership or program are separate and may include a modest service margin.
Is this medical care?
No — Root is health coaching, nutrition, and education. Your testing is physician-ordered and our clinical team reviews for safety, but we don't diagnose, treat, or prescribe, and we don't replace your physician. Keep your own doctor — Root supports your body's own capacity to heal through food, lifestyle, and coaching.
How is Root different from Restore?
Root is six months total: a 60-minute onboarding in month 1, 30-minute touch-ins in months 2 and 3, and a separate 30-minute graduation call at the end of month 6. Restore is twelve months total: a 60-minute onboarding in month 1, 30-minute touch-ins in months 2–6, and a separate 30-minute graduation call at the end of month 12. Root includes supplement recommendations through month 3; Restore includes them through month 6. Everything you invest in Root credits toward Restore.
Business Ethics: your care team should sit on your side of the table. When the person recommending another test or bottle also profits from that purchase, the incentive can quietly favor more consumption. We remove that conflict for active members and clients enrolled in our programs: physician-ordered labs and any recommended supplements are passed through at our cost, so our financial interest stays aligned with yours. We are paid for the team, judgment, coaching, and follow-through—not for increasing what you spend. Standalone lab services outside an Urban Monk membership or program are separate and may include a modest service margin.
A wellness and functional-health program — education, nutrition, and coaching that support the body's own capacity. Physician-ordered testing is an input; you always keep your own physician. Individual results vary; not a promise to diagnose, treat, or cure any condition.
