Happy Body Now Clinic

Hello and Welcome!

I’m Dr. Karen Hurley and I’m a Naturopathic Doctor, practitioner of functional medicine, great-aunt, hand drummer and plant lover!

My Story



I grew up in Chicago where I worked for the City, volunteered for nonprofits and was a medic in the Illinois Army National Guard...



  • Student

    I left to train at a 4 year accredited doctoral program where I married my deep desire to help people feel happier and more vital in their bodies with my call to immerse myself in the intense challenging study of medicine. I practice within a unique framework that integrates science and nature facilitating innovative, effective, powerful activations of physical healing in my patients. I am so appreciative to be able to collaborate with you on your healing journey.
  • Teacher/Mentor

    I graduated from Bastyr University with a Doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine in 2007 then completed a year long primary care residency. I hold adjunct faculty appointments at the teaching clinic of Bastyr Center for Natural Health and Bastyr University. I attended patients in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake and returned in 2013 to finish the medical mission.
  • Physician

    I love practicing as an ND delivering high quality primary and functional medicine-based health care with a clinical focus in women’s health, functional endocrinology and menopause. I also treat common conditions through sensible use of conventional and natural approaches.
  • Expert

    I integrate innovative natural medicine technologies with conventional evidence-based treatments that revitalize the menopausal woman into expressing a happier menopause body. I have appeared on radio and podcasts teaching on topics related to menopause. Click here to listen or watch Dr. Hurley talk about menopause.

    Human Touch

    The menopause journey took me through my own set of health challenges. I tested (and balanced) my hormones, I looked at (and corrected) my nutritional imbalances and I tweaked my diet and lifestyle (more exercise ;-) to ease my transition.
