Nutritional Counseling

Holistic Nutrition is the combination of food and nutrients to help individuals achieve optimal mental, physical and behavioral health. It can be used as a preventative health approach for the average person without any ailments, as a modality for healing or symptom management for people living with chronic illness or other medical conditions. The focus is on eating foods that provide your body with the highest levels of nutritional value and supplementing the diet with vitamins, minerals, amino acids, essential fatty acids etc. when necessary.

Prior to your first visit with our Nutritionst, you will be asked to complete a 7-day Food/Exercise Diary. At your first visit, you will bring the completed food diary for the Nutritionist to review and she will create the right plan that is specific to you. She will take into account a person's overall medical and physical health, as well as the issues that he or she is trying to improve or heal. She also will consider the underlying issues that are going on with your health as well as how ill a person is and even how aggressive they want to be with obtaining the results that they want to achieve. Different illnesses, conditions or diseases have different nutritional requirements and each responds to diet and nutrition uniquely. It usually takes a minimum of two visits with the nutritionist to begin to build the foundation for a healthier lifestyle.
