Nutritional Services Offered
Comprehensive Nutritional Assessment
Nutrition influences numerous aspects of our health. That’s why we use a comprehensive nutritional assessment to help you better understand what’s causing your problems and how to heal them.
Customized Nutrition Recommendations
Once a comprehensive nutritional assessment is completed, we offer customized nutrition recommendations. These are designed specifically for each patient in response to the nutrients their body needs.
Nutraceutical Supplements
Nutraceutical supplements are products made from foods. These supplements are designed to provide additional health and nutritional benefits. We provide individual recommendations and help our patients find the supplements that work best for them.
Dietician and Lifestyle Education
Our one-on-one dietary counseling and lifestyle education is designed to offer our patients professional help in devising the lifestyle and diet plan that works best to meet their specific needs.
We have partnered with a holistic nutritionist, Annie McRae, to give our patients the best possible nutritional counseling.
