About
In our nutrition services, first, we work as a team. I have 3 functional nutritionists and 1 registered dietician on staff. We collaborate on client cases to assure that our clients get the best service possible for their situation. We also don't just tell people what to eat and what not to eat. We spend a lot of time helping them integrate a healthy way of eating into their lifestyle. We understand that everyone is busy and they need something that works for their job, family, time, and budget constraints. We also do a lot of the grunt work of telling them where they can find items for the best price. One aspect that we're very proud to offer is that we are always available to them via phone, email, or text. Our coaching program is 24/7 not based on billable hours. If they are out at a new restaurant and don't know for sure what they should choose, we are essentially right there at their side. In our fitness services, attention to detail in every aspect of the process. We start with an assessment process which breaks down the way each body moves to determine where there is movement dysfunction. This is HUGE! If we have movement dysfunction, sooner or later we get hurt and the only thing that can stop a motivated, dedicated fitness routine is injury. Identifying areas of need right off the bat allows us attend to those areas first so as to reduce the risk of injuries. We use the information during the assessment to develop corrective and resistance exercise programs that also target the body's physiology along with the anatomy. Different fitness goals require different ways of training. During exercise sessions, our service becomes just as much an art as it is science. Finding what makes people click and how they respond to different types of communication is how we keep clients motivated and progressive. Also, the relationships we build with my clients are more than just someone we do business with. We look to really get to know our clients and often, over time, become friends. Our goal is not to just lift up people physically. We want those whom we work with to feel lifted up mentally and emotionally after their time with us. Sometimes that means listening and letting people vent about their day and sometimes that means giving advice. We particularly enjoy mentoring our youth athletes. True health and wellness involves this aspect along with the physical and we want our clients feeling good when they leave their time with us.
There are two things that we enjoy about our work more than any other. First, is the complexity and uniqueness of each person's individual situation. We love the challenge of evaluating each person's past history, current situation, and future goals internally and on the surface. By delving deep into the client's situation we can identify the most important issues to attend to. Then we can truly create personalized, efficient exercise and nutrition recommendations specifically for that one person. Secondly, we love the reward of seeing people progress towards and reach their goals. Nothing is more motivating than results. This goes for the client and for us as well. When people see results from their hard work they gain even more momentum to keep moving forward. When we see clients light up because they are meeting and surpassing their goals, it increases our energy and passion for helping them. That cycle is amazing fuel!
