Our Story
Healing Starts Before the Hospital
“My name is Shana Clark, and I’m the owner and founder of Desert Healing Medical Spa here in Kanab. I’ve been in Southern Utah since 2019 raising a beautiful family.
After 20 years in emergency medicine, I’ve seen firsthand that true health and healing starts with prevention and a proactive approach, long before you end up in the hospital.
Inspired by my mother’s journey and her success with vitamin therapies, I started Desert Healing to make these treatments accessible to others. My mission is to help our community thrive by providing the tools, care and education needed to live and enjoy the very best lives we can.”
