What is a Holistic Nutritionist and who am I?
A Holistic Nutritionist looks at the whole person including their diet, lifestyle, environment, emotions and all other aspects that affect the persons life. Holistic Nutritionists believe that good quality food is essential for the maintenance of optimal health and that the body has a tremendous ability to heal itself if it is provided with proper nutrition. A Holistic Nutritionist will work with you to help identify and correct the nutritional cause of a condition or disease by looking at the clients symptoms. Information is gathered and assessed in order to provide the proper tools for you to work towards better health. Everyone is unique and that is the way the Holistic Nutritionist views each individual person!
I am a Registered Holistic Nutritionist (RHN) with a passion for helping people achieve optimal health! Although I have always leaned towards a holistic lifestyle, my true journey began the first time I walked into a naturopaths office 14 years ago. Shortly after going on antibiotics for the first time in my life I began to develop Eczema. My naturopath put me on a restrictive diet consisting of whole foods and eliminated known allergens. I was absolutely shocked at not only the results but also how good I felt after changing my diet. That was the beginning of my true knowledge of the connection between food and its effects on the body. But... my education doesn't stop there as I am constantly attending and participating in training sessions and am learning more each time I work with a client.
In good Health!
