Functional Nutrition Counseling
Are you no longer feeling like yourself? It is important to take a look at all inputs in your life to determine how you can get the most out of your current health status. At Nourish Well, we will take a look at all aspects of your lifestyle to find opportunities to optimize your well-being.
Nutrition counseling begins with an initial consultation where we will work together to identify your goals, explore your habits and beliefs, review your history, and determine your comfort level with change. From there, we will work together to identify and implement changes based on a functional nutrition approach that will work for you. We will use follow-up sessions to build upon and tweak diet, supplement, and lifestyle recommendations until you are living your best life.
In addition to looking at your current lifestyle, we can recommend, order, and interpret functional tests, including stool tests, organic acid tests, and hormone levels.
