discover, empower, sustain

Functional Nutrition aims to look at the reasons for your symptoms and then uses targeted nutrients and lifestyle modifications to facilitate resolution of the root causes and  to promote wellness.   Functional Nutrition is not a quick fix or a one-size-fits-all solution.    Root-Cause resolution takes time, dedication and most of all support, which NFHW aims to provide to you.   We are in this together, and if you absorb and apply what you learn consistently and sustainably,  it is possible for you to feel better.  

The starting point for everyone is NOURISH - Discover:  $295 (includes 2 visits)

• Comprehensive Health History Review & Assessment
• Functional Nutrition Matrix / Timeline Mapping
• Functional Nutritional Status Evaluation*

The initial client intake process starts with you filling out a comprehensive health history, symptom questionnaire and 3-day dietary recall.   Once this is uploaded to your online client portal, you will be able to schedule your first in-person visit.  During the first visit, we will record basic anthropomorphic data (height, weight, body measurements, blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation), and  will assess some of your physical attributes through a nutritional lens. Together, we will then review your intake forms and fill in any gaps.

We then begin creating your functional nutrition matrix/symptom timeline.   This will help us better define antecedents, triggers and mediators to the conditions you are experiencing.    In other words, we will not only define what and how you are feeling, we will peel back the layers to understand WHY.   This is an iterative process that will be continued at the second visit.   At the end of the first visit,  we will define any critical lab work* that needs to be done or reviewed to further assess nutrient status, and you will be given some follow-up instructions to track relevant dietary and lifestyle factors for the following 7 days.

At the second visit, we will review your lab work,  and discuss my assessment of your health history and functional nutrition matrix/symptom timeline.   You will then decide if you would like to move on to NOURISH - Empower where are you will receive tools and interventions to help you feel better.   If you decide not to move forward, you will still receive 2-3 helpful dietary and lifestyle recommendations based on the history you provided and the assessment that was made.

*Labs done by your current physician within the last six months may be used.    Any additional laboratory testing/bloodwork may be ordered by NFHW via Evexia Diagnostics, if not available through your physician.   All laboratory tests are billed directly to the client by Evexia Diagnostics and may be submitted to insurance by the client.

When a client decides to enter this phase, the real work and progress toward healing begins.  The most important aspect of this phase is the client - practitioner relationship.   While the clinician may have and share expertise, your story and your experience are at the center of our work together.   The trust we build and our willingness to have open/honest 2 way communication are key in achieving the best outcomes.

Taking everything we learned during the discovery process, a unique NOURISH Nutrition and Lifestyle  Protocol is created.  We work together to systematically define, implement and evaluate nutrition and lifestyle interventions that support your specific health priorities.     You will receive a personalized plan that includes nutrition recommendations, lifestyle interventions and supplement priorities that are unique to you.   You will also receive personalized packet of  recipes, customized to your preferences -  including the most healing foods for your specific conditions.   We also provide a wellness journal and a clinic-connected, provider-monitored account in Cronometer, a best in class nutrient tracking app.

In functional nutrition, we do not introduce all interventions at the same time. We will often introduce 2 to 3 things for you to implement, along with the justification for each intervention.  We then conduct follow up visits in person or via zoom at regular intervals, adding additional interventions or changing course as needed. A customized number of visits/zoom follow ups are included. If you need support in between these touch points, you will have unlimited access to your provider via the HIPAA compliant online portal. You can expect a response within 48 business hours.

If we can't sustain our health, nothing we do to get it on track really matters.   Clients that have been through the NOURISH Discovery and  NOURISH Empower programs have the option to continue getting support on a monthly basis with our NOURISH Sustain program.  You may schedule a follow up call once per month to discuss any new health concerns or for coaching/accountability.  You also have free access to further optimization of the protocol created during the NOURISH Empower program.   Your nutrient tracking app access will continue, along with monthly monitoring and feedback from your provider.    While more supplement and health product information will be available on our website in the future, currently you will get discounts for supplements available through our office.   Finally, you'll have free access to any courses or seminars we promote or provide, throughout your participation in the program.
