Agape Healing Arts is a sanctuary in the heart of Jupiter founded by Drs. Keith and Bella Cini, a couple whose individual paths led them to a shared mission of empowering others through holistic healing.

‘You’re broken; we will fix you.’ No. We empower you to heal,” Bella says.

The journey of Agape Healing Arts was born out of a deep commitment to helping people heal, not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually, with love as the foundation of their work.

Dr. Keith’s journey into healing started in an unexpected place. Before he became a healer, he worked in the world of VIP security, guarding high-profile clients like Madonna, Prince, and Dolce & Gabbana. Though he had a front-row seat to the world of fame and fortune, something always felt off. After the traumatic events of 9/11, he had an epiphany about the need for healing and transformation in his life. This realization led him to leave his career in security behind and transition into the world of holistic healing. Dr. Keith’s exploration of healing modalities took him deep into the study of Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, and Native American healing traditions. He eventually combined these influences to create a life centered on helping others heal. In 2013, Dr. Keith and Dr. Bella opened Agape Healing Arts, a clinic built on the principle of unconditional love, Agape, in Greek, and grounded in the belief that true wellness comes from healing with faith, not fear.

In addition to his passion for holistic medicine, Dr. Keith’s athletic background also played an important role in his journey. He was a defensive middle guard for Hillsdale College’s National Championship football team and a three-time All-State wrestler. After suffering multiple concussions and injuries, Dr. Keith became interested in supporting athletes through recovery and injury rehabilitation. His work with Ricky Williams, the 1998 Heisman Trophy winner, through the Upledged Concussion Program, was a pivotal moment in his healing journey. Today, Dr. Keith brings his expertise in sports medicine, Chinese Medicine, and holistic healing together to support individuals in their recovery, helping them overcome physical pain and trauma.

Dr. Bella’s path into the world of holistic healing began in 1997 when she discovered midwifery and immediately felt a deep connection to the work. “I found midwifery and knew this was my calling,” she says. “Supporting women through one of the most transformative experiences of their life, childbirth, was something I felt deep in my heart.”

She pursued certification as a midwife and, by 2000, was not only a licensed midwife in Florida but also a licensed massage therapist. Becoming a massage therapist was a natural extension of her desire to support pregnant women through their journeys, using bodywork as a tool for comfort and healing.

In 2002, while raising a young family, Dr. Bella enrolled in acupuncture school at the Atlantic Institute of Oriental Medicine in Fort Lauderdale. She went on to complete her acupuncture training and became a licensed Doctor of Oriental Medicine in 2007. Throughout her studies, Dr. Bella continued to raise children and worked at various doctors’ offices in Jupiter, expanding her understanding of holistic health and deepening her commitment to supporting women through all stages of life.

Her entire career has been devoted to helping women not only physically, but emotionally and spiritually, empowering them to reclaim their health, vitality, and sense of self.

Together, Dr. Keith and Dr. Bella have created a space where they offer comprehensive and integrative care. Their approach combines many different healing modalities, including acupuncture, lymphatic therapy, Mayan abdominal therapy, craniosacral therapy, herbal medicine, and colon hydrotherapy.

Their clinic also offers diagnostic services such as the DUTCH test and thermography, supporting clients with holistic assessments of their health. “We don’t just treat symptoms,” says Dr. Bella. “We get to the root cause of imbalance, and we empower our clients to heal themselves.”

A key part of their approach is their belief in empowerment over dependency. “Our philosophy is not, ‘You’re broken; we will fi x you.’ No. We empower you to heal,” Dr. Bella explains. Their treatment sessions are designed to not only address physical ailments but to create space for emotional and Bella and Keith Cini in their studio where they hold workshops. spiritual growth, ensuring that clients feel more aligned and connected with their body’s flow and vitality after each session. In addition to the therapies, Drs. Bella and Keith customize three-month wellness protocols for their clients, teaching them self-care techniques and offering support along the way.

Beyond their healing work, Dr. Keith and Dr. Bella are deeply committed to their community. They have opened their studio to the public, hosting workshops that include sound healing, transformational breath-work, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and meditation. These offerings reflect their belief that wellness is a holistic journey that encompasses mind, body, and spirit. At Agape Healing Arts, the focus is not only on individual healing but on creating a community of support, education, and empowerment. Every treatment is infused with love, and the goal is to help each person who walks through their door experience true wellness and holistic health.
