Who benefits from Nutritional Therapy services?

​

Are you someone who is sick and tired of being sick and tired?  You may have a new diagnosis or an old one.  Young and old can benefit from finding out what your foundational and root cause issues may be.  Instead of just treating symptoms, we will explore together why those symptoms are there in the first place.

​

What are examples of diseases that can be supported?

​

Some of the things we have run across in our practice include but are not limited to: autism, ADHD, mast cell activation, mastocytosis, Hashimoto's, anxiety, arthritis, asthma, psoriasis, eczema, lupus, SIBO, ulcerative colitis, diabetes, gallbladder support, non-alcoholic fatty liver, ascites, Raynaud's, degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis, migraine, urticaria, MTHFR gene SNP, eosinophilia, and cancer.  

​

What IS a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP)?  

 

NTPs are trained to evaluate your nutritional needs and imbalances.  They can help you re-balance using nutritional foundations and support you to achieve optimal wellness through dietary changes.  These dietary changes come from a nutrient-dense, seasonal, locally sourced, minimally processed standpoint.  My philosophy comes from a bioregulatory medicine premise.  

 

What is Bioregulatory Medicine?

 

Bioregulatory medicine is a comprehensive, holistic, root-cause approach to health that advocates using natural healing methods to support and restore the body's intrinsic self-regulating and self-healing mechanisms, instead of simply treating symptoms with integrative therapies.

​

What can you expect before your first visit? 

 

Of course, I want to get to know you!  There will be some detailed paperwork, but these nutritional analysis tools make it more efficient to work with you.  I will be able to see the whole picture in your foundational health and better support you on your journey.  I want the best for you!

​

What way of eating do we subscribe to?

 

Every one of us is a special individual with bio-individual needs.  That said, we can all agree that the food system is not what it used to be.  The quality of the food you eat is essential.  Therefore, I will always suggest nutrient-dense, seasonal, locally sourced, and minimally processed changes. My hope is to bring you closer to your food and the community in which you live that produces it. I will help you do that within your budget, skills, schedule, and area of your living.  Those things are important to you, and they are important to me!

​

To sum it all up …

 

“Though the journey looks different for everyone, the destination most of us strive to reach is a place of total wellness: a clear, sharp mind; a strong, capable body; energy to follow our passions; and time to spend with the people we love. More than anything, we want to feel good in our own skin and enjoy each moment to the fullest.”

 

This brings us back to our original quote by Lao Tau: ”The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." Let's take those first steps together.
