Hormone Optimization & Bioidentical Hormone Support

If you’ve been feeling off — tired but wired, inflamed, anxious, gaining weight, moody, not sleeping well, or “not yourself” — your hormones may be part of the picture.

At Root + Restore, we offer thoughtful, integrative hormone optimization that looks beyond symptoms to understand why your hormones are struggling — and how to support your body safely and sustainably.

We offer Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy & holistic wellness support in Asheville NC.

Our Approach

Hormones don’t exist in isolation.

They are deeply influenced by:

  • Stress and nervous system regulation

  • Blood sugar and metabolic health

  • Mineral status and nutrient availability

  • Detoxification and liver function

  • Sleep, inflammation, and lifestyle patterns

Our Hormone optimization and hormone imbalance approach blends medical oversight with functional and holistic support, so we’re not just replacing hormones — we’re helping your body work better as a whole.

Hello, I’m Tracy Hawse, Your Integrative Nurse Practitioner

As an integrative Nurse Practitioner, I have a deep respect for the body’s intelligence and its ability to heal when given the right support.

My hope is to walk alongside you on your journey — helping you better understand what your body is communicating and creating a plan that supports hormone balance in a way that feels safe, personalized, and sustainable.

Our hormone optimization programs draw on evidence-based medicine, advanced hormone testing, and an integrative, root-cause lens. Rather than chasing symptoms or relying on one-size-fits-all protocols, we take the time to look at the full picture — including stress, metabolism, sleep, nutrient status, and lifestyle factors that directly influence hormone health.

I work collaboratively with our wellness coach, Caitlin Watson, to ensure we’re also supporting the daily habits and lifestyle changes that truly impact hormones — such as nervous system regulation, nutrition, stress resilience, and foundational wellness.

Together, our goal is not just hormone replacement, but whole-body support — helping you feel more balanced, resilient, and at home in your body again.

If you’re navigating fertility challenges, perimenopause or menopause, low libido, brain fog, mood changes, or unexplained weight struggles, you’re not alone.

We’re here to help identify hormone imbalances and support you with a personalized, integrative plan of care designed to restore balance, clarity, and vitality.

Hormone optimization may be helpful if you’re experiencing:

  • Fatigue or burnout

  • Weight gain or difficulty losing weight

  • Anxiety, irritability, or mood swings

  • Poor sleep or insomnia

  • Low libido or vaginal dryness

  • Brain fog or memory issues

  • PMS, perimenopause, or menopause symptoms

  • Irregular cycles

  • Thyroid-related symptoms

  • “Normal labs” but ongoing symptoms
