A little about me and my company…
Hi and welcome to my site! I am so happy you’re here:)
My name’s Alexa Kuphal I’m an NTP (nutritional therapy practitioner) & LMT (licensed massage therapist). I love God, I love moving my body, I love good food, and I love people.
And I’m deeply passionate about the work I do — for a very personal reason.
When I was young, my mom became really sick. Every doctor told her it was “just food poisoning.” For years, her symptoms were dismissed and brushed aside, even though she kept telling them something deeper was wrong. She advocated for herself over and over, but no one truly listened.
Eventually, after being hospitalized, she was finally diagnosed with celiac disease. After changing her diet, she felt good for a bit, but then even more autoimmune diagnoses came — Sjögren’s, Hashimoto’s, and others. Yet still, no one could tell her why this was happening or what could be done to stop more autoimmune issues from popping up.
All she was ever told was:
“Take this. Your symptoms will go away.”
And sometimes they did… temporarily.
But prescriptions in cases like this are basically putting black tape over a warning light on your dashboard. Sure, you can cover it or ignore it maybe even pretend the engine underneath isn’t struggling— but eventually the underlying issue resurfaces, louder and more unignorable than before. That cycle often leads to emergency surgeries, stronger medications, and more nutrient deficiencies and complications within the body.
Thankfully, my mom eventually found a homeopathic clinician who helped her avoid high medication doses and major organ-removal surgeries. She reclaimed her health — fully — and later went to school for health and wellness coaching, following the same path as the practitioner who helped her heal.
She is the heart behind why I do what I do.
Watching her struggle, fight for answers, and refuse to settle for surface-level care lit a fire in me at a young age.
That is my why.
She showed me real healing doesn’t come from quick fixes or prescriptions — it comes from getting to the root, supporting the body with real foods and God-given tools, and never giving up.
My Mom’s story is what led me to nutrition. I wanted to learn how food truly fuels the body and how making small, consistent changes can transform lives. From there, Lex Lives Real was born — starting with nutrition, then handmade tallow skincare. Working for my brother’s concrete company, my hands — and everyone else’s — were constantly exposed to harsh chemicals that wrecked our skin barrier. No matter what we tried, nothing truly healed it.
So I started experimenting with ingredients that were as real, clean, and nourishing as the nutrition work I was doing. That’s how I discovered tallow — a nutrient-dense, bioavailable fat that actually supports the skin the way it was designed to be supported. It was the first thing that healed my hands, my family’s hands, and the clients who tested early batches for me.
That’s when Lex Lives Real skincare came into the works — simple, high-quality, intentional ingredients that actually work with your skin, not against it. Everything I make is crafted by hand, in small batches, using the same products I personally use every day.
Massage became the next natural piece of my work, especially after years of doing physical labor in the concrete business. I know exactly what it feels like to carry tension, overuse certain muscles, work long days in the cold or heat, and push your body until it screams for relief.
hat experience shaped the kind of therapist I am today.
I’m also an athlete. I love Brazilian jiu-jitsu, hiking, being outside, hunting, and just moving my body — those are my passions! And through all of this, I saw how much our ability to move, heal, and feel strong impacts our quality of life.
Massage, for me, isn’t just relaxation — it’s functional, intentional, and deeply supportive. I focus on helping people move better, release chronic tension patterns, understand what their body is trying to communicate, and feel strong again. Whether it’s neuromuscular therapy, sports work, cupping, or general deep tissue, my goal is always the same:
to help your body do what it was designed to do — heal, adapt, and thrive.
Everything I offer — nutrition, skincare, massage — ties back to the same philosophy:
It’s about helping people get back to living at their fullest potential. To feel strong again. To move freely. To do the things they love without being held back by pain or limitation. And to get back to Livin’ Real! - Lex 🤍🤍

What I do …
At Lex Lives Real, I bring all the pieces of my journey together:
It’s not just about the services…
My vision for my business isn’t just about services — it’s about creating a community. A place where people get the support they need and empowerment ot take charge of their health with real tools, real food, and real care.
Until then, Lex Lives Real is my foundation — one client, one massage, one nutrition consult, and one handmade product at a time. Step by step, I’m building toward that greater vision of a space where healing isn’t a luxury… it’s a way of life.
My Mission
Lex Lives Real is my way of sharing what I’ve learned: that healing is possible, that small businesses can make a big impact, and that sometimes the best medicine is the simplest. My dream is to grow into a wellness space that offers not just massage and nutrition, but will one day be a true wellness sanctuary. A place where people can come to rest, restore, and rebuild their health from every angle.
I dream of creating a space where you can:
Move Your Body in yoga, stretch, pilates, etc.
Refuel Naturally with high-quality, mold-and heavy-fetal-free coffee, metabolic health supporting carnivore inspired meals that honor our ancestral roots.
Shop Consciously for local, all-natural meats, animal products, and safe, handcrafted cosmetics and at-home health care items.
Experience Integrative Therapies like BEMER, sauna, halotheraopy, cold plunge, safe UVB tanning in the off season for vitamin D, red light therapy, and so much more!
