Portrait of Julia Schramek

My story

Hi, I’m

I’m the founder of BlüMethod, and I’m so glad you’re here.

My whole life has been about caring for others. My career in healthcare began as a neuro ICU nurse in my native Germany. After a gap year that took me around the world, I settled in the United States, where I became a Labor and Delivery nurse. For nearly 25 years, I worked throughout California and Hawaii, welcoming new life into the world and supporting families through some of their most important moments.

Along the way, I saw how often people with chronic symptoms fall through the cracks. They’re told their labs look normal, yet they still don’t feel like themselves.

And then, during the pandemic, it was my turn. I found myself facing long COVID and perimenopause at the same time while working as a frontline healthcare worker. For a while, it felt as if my life had come to a standstill, and nobody seemed to have the answers.

So I went looking for them. Piece by piece, functional health helped me understand what my body truly needed, and how deeply stress affects healing, whether it’s hormones, an illness or an injury. I’ve lived all three. That understanding led me to become a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition® Practitioner and to create BlüMethod.

BlüMethod is the support I wish I’d had, and now I get to share it with you.

Today, I bring together everything I’ve learned, both in my career and through my own personal experience: compassion, emotional wellness coaching and evidence-based tools like functional lab insights, brain retraining and nervous system reset exercises, and holistic protocols tailored to each person.

My own journey taught me that every part of us is connected and nothing happens in isolation. It also showed me how much of our health truly is in our own hands, shaped by the everyday choices we make: how we eat, move, rest and handle stress. That’s why I see my role as listening, educating, empowering and walking beside each of my clients, every step of the way.

I’m so glad I get to make a difference in your life.

In health and joy,
