Nikki Ostrower

Nikki Ostrower is an integrative nutritionist, wellness lifestyle expert, and the founder of NAO Wellness — a company that coaches individuals and teams toward transformative, lasting health. After overcoming a years-long battle with a debilitating eating disorder, Nikki devoted her life to helping others find balance, peace, and empowerment around their health. What began in 2008 as a one-woman nutrition business culminated in the creation of the NAO Wellness Center — a stunning boutique mind-body-spirit haven in the heart of NYC that fused modern science, cutting-edge wellness offerings, and expert nutritional counseling. 

While this successful venture thrived as a safe space for busy New Yorkers to indulge wellness services due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the center has since closed, and NAO Wellness’ offerings are now available virtually, making Nikki’s holistic approach accessible worldwide. What makes Nikki’s approach work is a unique combination of science-based nutritional counseling, structured support and accountability, and personalization.  Knowing that every client is different, she considers physical biomarkers, lifestyle, behavioral habits, and long-term goals before customizing their plan. It’s this whole-person approach that drives lasting change. 

Nikki’s corporate wellness program has helped companies like Hitachi, American Express, Salesforce, Robin Hood Foundation, JPMorgan, Nike, Lion Tree, TJX and more to achieve marked improvements in workplace wellness — and ultimately, bottom line productivity. She has been featured in Vogue, Vanity Fair, SHAPE, Well + Good, Forbes, InStyle, and more.
