Integrative Nutrition Overview
Nutrition tailored for you
Integrative nutrition is a functional-medical therapy personalized to prevent and treat chronic disease.
Our Programs:
Our team focuses on the whole person in an attempt to reaffirm the importance of the therapeutic relationship. Just as each person is completely unique, so should their care and treatment plan. Through a complete nutrition consultation, our counseling team will identify many surface factors that may be affecting a person's health, including diet, exercise, environment, sleep and relationships.
From there they determine symptoms and possible allergens, intolerances, toxins and pathogens. Delving deeper, the patient's genetics and medical history are evaluated. Our team will then determine the best nutrition care plan that will be most beneficial for each individual to put them on the road to recovery.
