Gut Health & Support
True healing begins in the gut
Why prioritize gut health?
When we aren’t digesting properly, we aren’t absorbing properly. So you may be eating a well balanced diet, but if something is out of whack with your digestive function, then you may be missing out on all of the beneficial nutrients from the healthy foods you are consuming.
Many of the frustrating symptoms that we experience stem from dysfunction in the gut. Other than daily frustrations of gas, bloating, and inconsistent bowel movements, these symptoms can also include acne and other skin issues, brain fog, inflammation, allergies, anxiety, and even stubborn weight loss.
When we improve and support our GI health, we optimize digestive function, balance the microbiome, and strengthen the gut immune system.
Tools to take a closer look
The GI-MAP and MRT test results are used to give us insight to put together more pieces of the puzzle as to what is going on in the body- rather than guessing.
When we work together, we will put together the pieces of your current diet, lifestyle, test results, and goals to help you feel and function your best.
Testing is used as a tool to identify imbalances and blocking factors so that we can support the body in functioning optimally and feeling WELL.
-
The GI-MAP test is one of the most accurate stool tests. It is used to address imbalances and potential pathogens and to get a clearer picture as to what is going on in the gut at a deeper level. From this information, we can develop personalized protocols and know how to best support optimal GI function.
-
The MRT test is a blood test that tests 170 food and chemical reactions to determine sensitivities. This allows us to see what foods could be contributing to inflammation in the body and what could be blocking further gut healing. When we see the levels of food sensitivities, we can further remove irritating factors that could be hindering the healing process.
What does starting this journey look like?
1- Initial consultation
I want to get to know you and where you would like to be with your health and wellness!
During a 60 minute virtual consultation we will go over your current diet and lifestyle habits, 7-day food journal, symptom presentation, and wellness goals.
2- Plan development
After the initial consultation, you will get an idea of what it may look like to work together for 3-6 months.
This will include initial wellness steps to start taking, and learning more about the insights that the GI-MAP and MRT tests can provide for potential digestive dysfunction and inflammation.
3- Monthly meetings & support
We will have 1-3 sessions per month on an individual basis.
You will receive personalized dietary suggestions and supplement recommendations, meal planning guidance, exercise and lifestyle recommendations, and holistic wellness education.
