About Us

WELCOME TO EARTH REMEDIES

David and Shelly Goodson are the owners of Earth Remedies of Florida. More than just another luxury MedSpa, Earth Remedies is a wellness retreat that focuses on self-care and overall well-being.

David has always been passionate about healthcare and wellness. He graduated from Ball State University with a degree in Exercise Science focusing on Kinesiology and Ergonomics. He has owned Whitewater Valley Rehabilitation for over 25 years. Shelly graduated from Miami University of Ohio with a degree in accounting. She co-owns Fayette Tool and Engineering, which was founded in 1970 by her father. Together they own several successful businesses.

Plagued with chronic back pain for years, David became interested in seeking alternative ways to find relief. That led to the discovery of the benefits of CBD. Through the research process, the concept of incorporating CBD with spa services like massage was born. The mission further evolved into “look good, feel good” by utilizing modern technologies accompanied by natural remedies.

David and Shelly are excited to offer something special to the community and share their passion and knowledge to help create a one-of-a-kind experience that encompasses relaxation, rejuvenation and healing.
