Help Launch Mountainside Integrative Retreat

& Restoration Center

A faith-centered mountain retreat created to help people facing chronic illness restore hope, strength, and health.

Mountainside Integrative Retreat & Restoration Center grows out of the work already being done through Mountainside Holistic Clinic & Wellness Center.

Dr. Jessica Zummo and Samantha Amos, NP have spent years supporting individuals and families facing chronic illness, autoimmune disease, and complex health challenges. Through their work at Mountainside Holistic Clinic, they have witnessed countless people searching for answers, encouragement, and a place where they can truly rest and begin rebuilding their health.

Again and again, patients have shared the same longing:

“I just wish there was a place where I could focus completely on healing.”

Over time it became clear that something was missing — a peaceful environment where people could devote time to restoring their health, their hope, and their faith.

That realization led to the vision for Mountainside Integrative Retreat & Restoration Center.

Located in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, this faith-centered, veteran-owned retreat will provide a setting designed for rest, encouragement, and renewal.

Why This Retreat Is Personal to Us

Dr. Jessica spent many years battling lupus and endometriosis while searching for hope through traditional medical pathways. After experiencing profound improvements through holistic approaches and faith, she became passionate about helping others find the same hope and restoration.

Samantha’s path to this mission was shaped through her service in the military and her work in nursing. During that time she saw firsthand the limitations many patients face within conventional care.

Through her faith, Samantha felt called to a more complete approach to healing — one that restores the body, mind, and spirit.

Together, Jessica and Samantha have helped many people through Mountainside Holistic Clinic, yet they continually heard the same need expressed by patients — a place where individuals could dedicate time and space to restoring their health.

Mountainside Integrative Retreat & Restoration Center is their answer to that need.

A Calling That Led to This Mission

This vision did not come lightly. Through seasons of prayer, reflection, and fasting, Jessica and Samantha both felt a deep calling from the Lord to expand the work they had already begun through Mountainside Holistic Clinic.

As practitioners, they believe healing ultimately comes from God, and they simply serve as vessels using the knowledge and gifts He has provided.

For years they watched patients come through the clinic searching not only for answers, but for a place where they could truly focus on rebuilding their health.

Again and again they heard the same request — a peaceful environment where individuals facing serious health challenges could dedicate time to restoring their strength, their hope, and their faith.

Over time it became clear that creating such a place was the next step in the mission.

Mountainside is not simply a project.

It is a mission.

With your support, we can begin preparing the property, building the retreat spaces, and welcoming the first guests who are searching for hope and renewal.

Some Stories of Restoration

Over the years at Mountainside Holistic Clinic, we have witnessed incredible stories of hope and healing. These experiences helped inspire the vision for Mountainside Integrative Re•Treat & Restoration Center.

20 Years Without Answers

For nearly two decades, Caryn was told nothing was wrong while she endured debilitating crashes, weakness, and constant illness. At Mountainside, Dr. Jess identified the root cause—Reactive Hypoglycemia—and created a program that restored her health.

"After two decades of suffering, I finally got my life back."

— Caryn Tindal

Our Daughter Is Seizure-Free

When five-year-old Cora began having seizures, doctors could only offer medications that changed her personality. After comprehensive testing at Mountainside revealed hidden infections and illness, a personalized program helped restore her health.

Today she is seizure-free and back to being a joyful little girl.

— Spencer & Caroline Phelps

Stage 4 Cancer Turnaround

Bob was diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic prostate cancer with a PSA of 174. After beginning a personalized program at Mountainside and making key lifestyle changes, his PSA dropped dramatically.

"Within six months my PSA fell to 0.1, and my strength and health returned."

— Bob Boyd

Dementia Reversed

Missionary Jerry Williams was diagnosed with dementia and could no longer preach, teach, or read. After beginning a personalized program at Mountainside, his mind and memory returned.

Today he is teaching Sunday school again and living fully.

"God truly gave me my mind back."

— Jerry Williams

How Funds Will Be Used

Funds raised will help us:

• prepare and renovate the retreat property

• create guest accommodations

• build therapy and consultation spaces

• develop gardens and outdoor restoration areas

• establish the kitchen for nourishing organic meals

• acquire wellness equipment and furnishings

The Bill Grayson Memorial Fund

A portion of the funds raised will also support the Bill Grayson Memorial Fund, created in honor of a very special friend of the Mountainside Holistic Clinic family.

This memorial fund will provide financial assistance so individuals who need the Mountainside retreat the most, can receive care regardless of their financial situation.

In this way, Bill’s legacy will continue — helping bring hope, healing, and encouragement to others for years to come.
