What is Nutritional Therapy?

Nutrient sufficiency - attained through a properly prepared, nutrient-dense, whole food diet - provides essential building blocks for the body to balance itself!  Through carefully designed bio-individual dietary, lifestyle and supplement recommendations, along with sensible advice for adequate hydration, rest, and stress management, Nutritional Therapy promotes optimal health - effectively balancing body chemistry and reducing, or even eliminating dysfunction.                                                                                                                           

How does Nutritional Therapy work?

The concept behind Nutritional Therapy is not a new one.  Our bodies are amazingly capable of restoring balance, given the right fuel!  * The great nutritional pioneers like Weston A. Price, DDS, Dr. Francis Pottenger, MD, Royal Lee, DDS, and Melvin Page, DDS, provided us with supporting scientific evidence that consuming a properly prepared, nutrient-dense diet along with short-term use of targeted, high quality supplements (used therapeutically), health can be completely restored at the cellular level.  Gathering information from confidential health questionnaires combined with a hands-on Functional Evaluation, a Nutritional Therapist is able to clearly answer three BIG questions for each client:

1)  Are nutrient deficiencies present? 

2)  What particular nutrient(s) will work to restore and balance the client?

3)  When is the client sufficient? 

By using a variety of evaluation methods and techniques including a complete review a client's health and diet history, a 3-Day Food Diary, as well as tapping into an individual's innate intelligence utilizing the hands-on Functional Evaluation, these three BIG questions can be easily and effectively answered.  No other nutritionist or dietician uses this comprehensive, individual approach to nutrition. 

Most traditional nutritionist today hold little - if any at all -respect for the importance of bio-chemical individuality.  Conversely, a Nutritional Therapist recognizes that there is no "one fits all" diet and focuses on the unique needs of each client to provide a finely tuned nutritional protocol.
