Welcome
to the Nutrition and Lifestyle Consulting
component of our clinic! If you’re on
this website, then you’ve taken the first step in
realizing that the state of your health is up to
YOU! You’ve likely also realized that
sound nutrition is at the core of a healthy
lifestyle, that without providing each of your
cells with the right nutrients, they will not be
able to do the very thing they were designed to
do… that is to keep you healthy!
You’ve
admitted to yourself that you could benefit from a
nutritional counseling session in order to get the
most out of your health. So whether you
need a few tweaks to your existing diet, or a
total nutritional overhaul, working with a
holistic nutritionist will give you a totally new
perspective on food and eating.
When
you book a consultation with one of our
consultants, expect to be put to
work! This is a hands on and very
interactive approach to your health, and there
will be no success without your total commitment
and involvement in all aspects and stages of the
program design. The minute you book
your initial consultation, you will be sent a
comprehensive and detailed health history form
(completely confidential) in order to give us some
insight into your life. From there, the
sky is the limit and we begin working together on
the NEW YOU!
And
the most important lesson you will come to learn
with us is that you hold all the power of healing
within yourself! Within you lies the
ability to totally recreate yourself into someone
with an abundance of energy, who feels in harmony
with the earth, the environment and
others. In this day and age it is more
difficult to eat well than to buy into all of the
convenience foods that are out
there. But the work is worth
it. The payoff is
tremendous. Once you rid your body of
all the toxins you have ingested, it will amaze
you with shapes and functions you’ve never dreamed
of. Instead of burdening your body with
foods that slow down your digestive system and
cause you nothing but grief and discomfort, let us
show you how to free up some energy so that you
can start enjoying your life. So come
and join us. Have a look through the
site. And take the next step… we’re
ready whenever you are!

Please
note: RHNs and RNCPs are not
dieticians. Dieticians have a very
different approach to nutrition. If you
are interested in hiring a dietician please go to
the Dieticians of Alberta website to learn more
about this profession. Also, if you
have a specific medical condition that needs to be
diagnosed, please see your family
doctor. Nutritional Consultants are not
trained to diagnose or treat diseases, but rather
to design nutritional programs that allow your
body to perform at optimal levels of
health.
