About

Buddy Touchinsky, DC, CFMP

Founder and CEO, has been serving the community of Orwigsburg professionally and personally through local leadership roles for 15 years. He is married to Susie, and they have a daughter, Megan. 

Dr. Touchinsky is a chiropractor and functional medicine practitioner with a focus on creative solutions and innovative methods to help people solve their problems and maximize their health. It was in his chiropractic practice that missing links within the full health of an individual became apparent. Many of the patients he treated were dealing with issues caused by poor diet, lack of exercise, inadequate sleep, and other lifestyle-related factors that the traditional healthcare system was not addressing. This led Dr. Touchinsky to study and become certified in functional medicine and to develop a team of like-minded practitioners that are with us today.

About

Allison H. Smith, FNP-BC, IFMCP

Allison H. Smith, FNP, is a double board-certified family nurse practitioner from Mississippi who brings deep expertise in functional medicine to PEAK Integrative Medicine. With a BS in Visual Art and advanced training from the Institute for Functional Medicine, her passion for holistic health was forged through nearly 30 years of personal struggles with gut issues—chronic fatigue, bloating, stomach pain, anxiety, and skin conditions—that defied traditional treatments.

This journey as a mother of three transformed when she embraced functional medicine, uncovering root causes and reclaiming her vitality, energy, and clarity. Now, Allison empowers patients stuck in conventional care, crafting personalized plans to tackle gut health, fatigue, and brain fog, while restoring confidence and balance. A believer in the mind-body connection, she blends physical, mental, and emotional healing, guided by her faith. Outside the clinic, she enjoys reading, exercising, creating art, and making family memories through travel. Her mission is clear: help others break free from health struggles and thrive.
