Dr. Jessyca Franco-Chavez

Dr. Jessyca Franco-Chavez is a Naturopathic Medical Doctor specializing in primary care, regenerative aesthetics, and root-cause medicine. Her work bridges the art of healing with disciplined, evidence-based practice, integrating naturopathic, functional, and integrative medicine to support longevity, vitality, and refined aesthetic outcomes. With over a decade in the wellness industry and more than twenty-four years of hospital-based experience, Dr. Franco-Chavez brings depth and clinical precision to the treatment of chronic disease and whole-body restoration. Her philosophy centers on addressing the root cause—supporting the body’s innate capacity to heal while enhancing natural beauty from within. At the core of her practice is a commitment to individualized, relationship-based care. She develops tailored treatment plans that consider the full spectrum of health—from emotional and mental wellbeing to organ system function and metabolic balance. Her approach is both introspective and results-driven, guiding patients toward sustainable vitality and what she describes as a true “inside-out glow.” Dr. Franco-Chavez blends advanced Western diagnostics and therapies with botanical medicine, physician-grade supplementation, and targeted interventions including IV and IM nutrient therapies, regenerative injections, and minimally invasive procedures. Her clinical offerings extend to PRP, microneedling, pain management therapies such as dry needling and cupping, and in-office minor surgery. She also incorporates emerging technologies, including FDA-cleared coherence and biofield support systems, to optimize nervous system regulation and whole-body healing. Through Desert Ritual | House of Medicine, she leads a distinct aesthetic medicine experience—Aesthetics Alchemy—where clinical precision meets ritualized care. Supported by a licensed aesthetician, this arm of the practice delivers advanced, evidence-based treatments using state-of-the-art technologies including HydraFacial, Morpheus8 RF microneedling, Lumecca IPL, Diolaze laser hair removal, and EvolveX body contouring. Each protocol is thoughtfully designed to harmonize internal health with external expression, creating refined, natural results. Dr. Franco-Chavez currently serves as the Primary Care Practitioner and Chief Medical Officer of Desert Ritual | House of Medicine. She is also the co-founder and operator of Casitas de Corrales, a retreat and hospitality concept rooted in the New Mexico landscape, and the Executive Director of The Healing House Concepts, a nonprofit initiative focused on lifestyle, nutritional, and community-based medicine. In addition to her clinical work, she is actively engaged in state and federal health policy, contributing to legislative efforts and professional advocacy as a member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians and consultant to healthcare organizations nationwide. Her personal passions reflect the ethos of her work: traveling to Washington, D.C. for advocacy, exploring food as medicine within her community, and studying the intersection of quantum science, sacred geometry, and human physiology. At home, she is a curator of environment and experience—designing spaces that embody warmth, beauty, and intentional living. Dr. Franco-Chavez welcomes each patient into a setting that feels both elevated and deeply personal—a place where medicine is practiced with precision, rhythm, and soul.
