James Precour, NTP | Bioenergetic Practitioner
Nutritional Therapy, Bioenergetics · Holistic Health Practitioner
Hi, I'm James Precour, Bioenergetic and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and currently live in San Ramon, California with my wife and our dog Milo.
The seed for this work was planted in 2010, when my mother began experiencing "autoimmune" symptoms following a medical procedure. What followed was a painful and all-too-familiar story: gaslighting from doctors, zero real answers, and a medical system with no interest in finding the root cause. Watching her struggle throughout my teenage years ignited a fire in me that's never gone out.
As she began to see real improvements through diet and lifestyle changes, I started paying closer attention to my own health and to what was actually possible when you work with the body rather than against it. What followed was years of learning, experimenting, and a few important wrong turns. One misguided detox protocol gave my symptoms a megaphone. Months with alternative practitioners left me tired and frustrated. But it turned out to be the most important wrong turn I ever made. What I didn't realize at the time was that deep within my psyche, I was trying to purify my body because I was at odds with myself.
Everything shifted when I found a practitioner doing something different. Someone who looked at the physical and the energetic, but who also understood that mental and emotional patterns shape what plays out in the body. When she reflected back what she was seeing in those areas, something clicked. The results were unlike anything I'd experienced before, and I knew then that I wanted to do for others what she had done for me.
The truth is, physical symptoms rarely live in the physical layer alone. The emotional patterns we carry, the nervous system's learned responses, and the deeper dimensions of who we are all contribute to both health and disease. I examine these layers because addressing only the surface is like swimming against the current. You can do it for a while, but eventually you burn out and end up right where you started or worse.
If you've tried everything, you're exhausted, and you sense something deeper is at play, you're probably right. The body already knows how to heal. My work is to help it remember by removing the noise and embracing coherence.
