Urbana business opening: Thrive Hydration and Wellness

The business was founded “out of a passion for disease prevention and health promotion,” Sothard said.

“After several years of hospital-based treatment, it is evident that more needs to be done in the community to educate and promote overall wellness to aid in the prevention of disease. Not all diseases are preventable, but if your body is operating optimally, it is better prepared to fight disease,” she said.

Sothard said when bodies have insufficient levels of essential nutrients, symptoms of depression, anxiety, chronic fatigue and inflammation can arise. She also said studies show that optimizing nutrient levels can decrease the risk of chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease, neurological diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s, prevention of certain cancers, and can benefit vitality, reduce signs of aging and improve skin, hair, and nails .

Sothard is excited and chose to open in Urbana because she said Champaign County is her home. She was born and raised there, and she continues to live there.

“Opening a business is exhilarating and overwhelming. I have always been quite driven and had a desire to give back to my community. Now it is finally happening,” she said. “… What better way to give back than to give people their health?”

The business is independently owned and operated by Sothard, but she hopes with future growth she will have a few staff members by the end of the year.
