Nutrition Consulting: what to expect

Not sure what to expect from nutritional therapy consulting?

Nutritional therapy consulting (a.k.a nutrition consulting) is a foundational approach to assessing your health and nutrition status so that you can take action to improve your health where it matters. It is designed to help you understand the symptoms you are experiencing so that you can make a plan to help you optimize your health. Nutrition consulting sessions educate and empower you to address underlying nutritional deficiencies and health concerns with the foundational approach of nutritional therapy. Whether you are looking for more energy, guidance on making healthy food choices, want to lose weight, or struggling with chronic health issues such as digestive, hormonal or autoimmune- you must start with the foundations and the beginning.

STEP 1 The first step is to figure out where you are and where you want to go.

Nutrition consulting starts with an initial assessment. In this first step your consultant uses a combination of interviewing and assessment tools to investigate and identify imbalances to help you get clear on how you can reach your goals. This helps you get clear your next steps, establish goals and guides in developing your personalized wellness plan.

An Initial Assessment includes some of or all the below depending on your needs as determined by you and your consultant:

The Interview is a series of questions that helps to get to know you and gathers information needed to understand your desires, reasons and goals so that we can find the right path for you.

The Nutri Q is an online nutritional assessment questionnaire. It is based on foundational principles of nutritional therapy. It links signs and symptoms to underlying imbalances and nutritional deficiencies helping to find priority areas where you need to take action to improve your health. The Consultation allows us to dig in and get clear. Using a combination of interviewing and assessment tools to identify and prioritize areas of concerns, establish goals and guide in developing your personalized wellness plan.
Additional objective assessment tools (optional):

 Bio Resonance Scan: The ETA-Scan device is a computerized bio-energetic assessment with detailed graphic visualizations, that can detect the energetic conditions of the body’s physiology. With this assessment method, we can detect and evaluate imbalance and dysfunction in the body. This allows the practitioner to target the therapy to the most appropriate areas and visually chart the improvement and track direction of health. Functional Testing: Dig deeper with functional laboratory testing such as mineral or stool testing to bring objective perspective that allows us to target underlying imbalances contributing to DIS-ease.

STEP 2 Outline a clear path to help you reach your goals

Your personalized wellness plan
Based on our time together, your comprehensive health assessment and goal setting session, your personalized wellness plan will be tailored to your specific bio-individual needs. It will include recommendations for lifestyle and diet change ranging from sleep, exercise, when and what to eat.  It may also include supplementation as needed (indicated in the assessment).

STEP 3 Build sustainable diet and lifestyle change.

The Food Journal and Meal Planning assessment gathers information on current dietary habits and allows the NT Consultant to make individualized dietary suggestions including recipe collections an/or a custom meal plan depending on your package.
