Desert Healing Medical Spa
About Us
Shana Clark • Owner/RN
My name is Shana Clark, 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 to health – long before you end up in the hospital.
Inspired by my mother’s battle with cancer and her success with vitamin therapies, I started Desert Healing to make these beneficial 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.
Jaysi King • RN
My name is Jaysi King and I grew up in Kanab. I have been in Cedar City for the last 10 years and am so excited to bring my family back to Kanab.
While in Cedar, I got married to my husband Kaden, and we have two adorable kids Paisley and Trey.
I graduated from SUU with my BSN. I started my nursing career at the Cedar City Hospital and then spent the last 5 years at an outpatient orthopaedic surgery center.
I love doing all things outdoors with my family and also enjoy Disneyland, reading, sports, going for walks, and sweets and treats of all kinds!
Dezi Lathim • RN
My name is Dezi Lathim, I’ve lived in Kanab for 20 years! I’m a boy Mom of 3 and I LOVE being a Mom.
I decided to go back to school after my kids got older and have now been in my Nursing career for 3 years. I’ve been traveling/working at the St.George hospital and I have finally transitioned my career back to Kanab.
I am so excited for this new journey in my career and to officially be apart of the Desert Healing team!
SA (Seldom) McGee • LAc., Dipl. OM, DACM
I’m a San Diego native who earned my undergraduate degree in Nutrition and Kinesiology before raising a family and running a successful marketing and screen-printing business. Later, I returned to school and completed my Master’s of Science in Oriental Medicine in 2018, followed by my Doctorate of Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine from the Pacific College of Health Sciences in San Diego.
After several years practicing concierge acupuncture in San Diego, I felt drawn to small-town life and new beginnings in Kanab, Utah, where I now share my passion for Eastern medicine.
I’ve received additional training in 5 Element Acupuncture, focusing on mental and emotional release, and Sports Medicine Acupuncture (SMAC). My work also includes women’s health, facial acupuncture, and micro-needling.
I view Eastern medicine as “a natural healthcare that encourages the body toward homeostasis by observing and following the natural forces of the universe.”
Outside of the clinic, I love traveling, creating designs and marketing materials, hiking, and laughing with friends. During my favorite season—the winter months—you’ll often find me exploring the outdoors with my two rescue dogs.
Jennifer Underwood • LMT
I’m a Licensed Massage Therapist with more than 15 years of professional experience. My journey in bodywork began at the Utah College of Massage Therapy, where I earned both my Master Bodyworker Certificate and LMT license in 2009. Over the years, I’ve built my practice around an intuitive and holistic approach, creating a calm, intentional space where clients feel safe, seen, and deeply cared for.
My specialties include deep tissue massage, myofascial release, cranial sacral therapy, trigger point work, sports massage, and reflexology. I also incorporate breathwork, aromatherapy, and mindful movement to support each client’s overall well-being and balance.
I believe in the body’s innate wisdom and capacity for self-healing. My goal is to help others reconnect with that wisdom—to release pain, reduce tension, and find greater ease in both body and mind. Each session is an opportunity to listen, respond, and guide the body back toward its natural state of harmony.
Outside of my practice, I’m continually expanding my knowledge through continuing education and personal growth work. I find inspiration in nature, community, and simple moments of mindfulness—all of which fuel my commitment to holistic healing and compassionate care.
Megan Claflin • Yoga
I’m a 200-hour certified yoga instructor through YogaWorks, offering classes that blend precise instruction, mindful alignment, and fluid movement.
Rooted in Vinyasa, my classes range from moderate to vigorous, always emphasizing breath and intentional sequencing. I encourage the use of props and offer modifications to create an accessible, personalized experience for every student.
In addition to Vinyasa, I also teach Yin (Deep Stretch), guiding students toward stillness, release, and a deeper connection between body and mind.
Whether we’re building strength or creating space, my goal is to help students find balance—both on and off the mat.
Heather Sulfaro • Pelvic Health Specialist M.S., M.A., OTR/L
I am a Board-Certified Occupational Therapist trained in Functional Pelvic Health, with over 10 years of experience helping individuals of all ages regain independence after illness or injury.
I began as a travel therapist, working in diverse settings across the country—from rural outpatient clinics and skilled nursing facilities to Level 1 trauma hospitals, schools, and ICUs.
Over time, I became burnt out trying to balance life with two young boys and a full-time role focused heavily on paperwork and billing. I grew tired of the “sick-care” system and the lack of emphasis on prevention, education, and real support—especially for new mothers navigating recovery after vaginal or cesarean birth. I knew I needed more professionally, and I wanted more for women like me.
After facing my own postpartum recovery challenges, I finally advocated for the care I knew I needed. That journey showed me I’m not alone—and neither are you.
Wild Heart Wellness was created to support and empower you in reclaiming balance, strength, and grace as you reconnect with your authentic self on your wellness journey.
I’m curious – how can I help you feel whole again?
Lara Hendrickson • Manager
My name is Lara and I have been in Kanab for over 10 years now. Life is full with 5 teenaged children between my husband and me.
I love trail running with my dog, being outside in the sunshine, trying new recipes, growing things, and finding fun ways to be creative.
I’ve always been into health and human potential. I am thrilled to be a part of a team that is equally passionate about helping others live and feel their best.
I love working behind the scenes to keep Desert Healing running smoothly and to make sure that the world knows we’re here!
After spending 2 years undergoing Immunotherapy for Metastic Melanoma I began to have side effects that included joint pain and inflammation and also fatigue. I can say that it was almost immediate that I felt a difference in my energy level from receiving B12 shots. I was no longer taking naps everyday and I find myself needing less sleep at night also. My inflammations in my knees has decreased also. I was never one that benefitted from taking pills or vitamins but the injections are amazing and work well for me. I have had nothing but positive results from taking these injections weekly.
