Taylor Smeenk

Taylor Smeenk is the CEO and Founder of Empact Wellness. Educated as a chiropractor and advanced as a Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, her career sits at the intersection of root‑cause medicine, systems thinking, and whole‑body care.

Her path was forged through personal experience: after suffering five concussions in a two‑year period, she developed and then healed herself from cervical cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, PMDD, chronic pain, eczema, and acne. When she and her own family fell through the gaps in the conventional healthcare system, she realized the world needed a different kind of clinic — one where mental, physical, and integrative health are understood as one connected whole.

That realization became Empact Wellness: a collective approach to whole‑body health. Built from one team, one roof, and one clear plan. What began as a commitment to her local Burlington community has grown into a model designed to help people move beyond symptom management worldwide – to empower people with an understanding of the underlying drivers of chronic, complex disease and build proactive, long‑term strategies without endless referrals, fragmented care, or the frustration of the broken system.
