Achieve a Healthier Mind & Body

Learn your body, foods best for you!

A busy, on-the-go lifestyle is not always conducive to nutritious eating—but thanks to Foskaris Wellness, achieving a healthier mind and body is well within reach.   

Business owner Penny Foskaris wears many health-inspired hats. She serves as the CEO, Nutritionist, Life coach, and Health Coach at Foskaris Wellness, just to name a few.

Penny is a firm believer in the idea that being truly healthy from the inside out means much more than worrying about the number on the scale.

She is committed to helping her clients really understand how their body uses certain foods to become stronger, healthier, and happier—a goal that doesn’t require loads of extra time, which, in today’s fast-paced world, is often scarce.  

“I provide my clients with deliciously simple recipes to create, so they are not spending hours in the kitchen. I also teach them how to pick the best choices for them at a restaurant. No food is off-limits. Moderation is the key,” she says.

At Foskaris Wellness, clients benefit from customized plans that are designed to meet their specific needs and goals, which are assessed during a free initial consultation.

“In my center, I focus on BMR [Basal Metabolic Rate], and body composition. Most places focus on BMI [Body Mass Index] and the scale. I have created a foolproof method for fat loss—every plan is created from scratch. [My plans] cover nutritional guidelines, delicious recipes, stress reduction, and accountability,” she says.

Since opening the doors of her Anaheim Hills location in 2019, Penny has taken her innovative ideas to the digital landscape to connect with more clients.   

With more and more people working from home—thanks to the pandemic—Penny quickly saw a need for easily prepared, health-conscious, flavor-packed recipes.

This year, she began sharing recipes online for clients to access and recreate with ease while adjusting to a “new normal” outside of the traditional office environment.

Penny understands that habits can be hard to break, and she assures those seeking her services that getting healthy doesn’t require denying or depriving yourself of your favorite foods.

Whether clients are prepping for an upcoming milestone or occasion or wanting to shake up their less-than-nutritious daily regime, Penny takes a realistic approach to revamp clients’ relationships with food.

“When people understand how their body uses different macronutrients (protein, carbs & fats), they can make better choices for their body and have more energy. Eating foods we enjoy usually makes us happier. With a little education on how our body uses different foods, we can enjoy every meal and become healthier and happier,” says Penny.

Penny steers clients toward healthier versions of the tastes and dishes they already enjoy, instilling lifelong healthy habits that are more attainable and sustainable.

In addition to educating her clients about nutrition, Foskaris Wellness offers an array of services designed to promote overall health and well-being.

Clients struggling with weight loss can have their excess fat melted away rapidly through non-surgical RedLight Sculpting solutions.

Feeling tense? Shed unhealthy stress with Infrared Sauna sessions, or try PSiO Relaxation Therapy for visual and auditory stimulation that promotes instant relaxation.

Foskaris Wellness also offers tools like Food Sensitivities Scans, Nutritional Genetic Testing, and Body Composition Analysis for enhanced individual insight.

Those looking to boost their confidence while on their wellness journey can indulge in Face Tightening technology that naturally rejuvenates, tones, and tightens the skin. 

Although she has already transformed countless clients’ lives through a combination of inventive ideas and a no-nonsense approach to nutritional science, Penny isn’t slowing down anytime soon.

She plans to continue to grow Foskaris Wellness’s online presence by teaching her proprietary process for fat loss to other wellness centers.

Penny Foskaris is clearly a woman on a mission—and that mission is clear. “I am on a mission to end the obesity epidemic. With a little education and support, it can happen…and it will happen!”
