About us.
Pathway to Light Wellness Initiative, known affectionately as PTL Wellness Organization, was founded with a vision to bridge the gap between conventional medicine and complementary therapies. Our journey began when our founder, moved by personal experiences with holistic health practices, recognized the profound benefits these therapies could offer—especially for those unable to afford such care. Determined to make a difference, we established PTL Wellness to offer a range of therapies from aromatherapy to energy center balancing, ensuring they are accessible to all, regardless of financial barriers.
