Nutritional Therapy Services

Are you ready to get back to thriving?

As a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I’m passionate about helping busy women meet their health goals by nourishing their bodies with nutrient dense food, long-term wellness practices, and holistically addressing their symptoms.

I spent years having my symptoms brushed off and feeling overwhelmed with what to do, chasing diet after diet. I wanted to get rid of my gut issues, get my energy back and thrive in motherhood and I knew there had to be another way! I found the benefits of nourishing my body with nutrient dense foods and getting to the root cause of my symptoms and got my life back!

I don’t ever want someone feeling as overwhelmed, frustrated and hopeless as I did and that’s why I love helping women feel their best through holistic nutrition and wellness practices! Food is a powerful healing tool and eating healthy doesn’t have to be complicated, bland or boring!

Are You Dealing with Symptoms Such As

  • Bloating
  • Fatigue
  • Burnout/ Adrenal issues
  • Mood swings
  • Headaches
  • Reflux
  • Constipation (having less than 1 bowel movement a day)
  • Diarrhea or Loose stools
  • Sibo or IBS (these are symptoms not root causes!)
  • Being “hangry”
  • Shakiness
  • Afternoon energy dips
  • Anxiety
  • PMS
  • Painful or irregular periods
  • Sleep issues
  • Feeling overwhelmed
  • Sluggish thyroid

Symptoms are your body’s way of communicating that something is unbalanced and needs your attention! These symptoms are common but that does not mean they are normal and just something you have to accept dealing with. By addressing your body’s needs at the root cause and meeting those needs with a holistic solution that addresses all the foundations of your health we can set you up to thrive again!

HTMA Single Session

Minerals act as the body’s spark plugs and are key to good health as they serve important roles in so many essential functions in the body. Imbalances can lead to a host of unwanted symptoms. Looking at a Hair Mineral Test can give us insight into mineral levels and balances, your stage of stress, metabolic type, heavy metals and even insight into adrenal function, thyroid function and blood sugar tendencies. Minerals are a great starting point in any health journey to help ensure success!

You can learn more about HTMA here.

Includes:

  • 1 HTMA test and explanation of the results
  • (1) 60 minute video call session to go over results
  • A Personalized Mineral Protocol based on your HTMA results
  • Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire and Analysis
  • Handouts and Resources
  • Access to therapeutic grade supplements at 25 percent discount

GI Map Stool Test – this test gives us insight into your gut health which is essential to whole body wellness! You can only benefit from all the great nutrients you are putting in your body if you are able to properly absorb them! The GI Map is a functional stool test that can be done from your home and sent to the lab.

Some insights we receive from the test include:

  • the presence of pathogens or parasites
  • the presence of H. Pylori
  • levels of bad bacteria
  • beneficial flora lacking in the gut
  • opportunistic yeasts in the gut
  • indications of dysbiosis or overgrowths
  • indications of poor stomach acid production
  • immune health markers
  • fat digestion
  • enzyme production
  • gut inflammation

This test helps to get to the root cause of your IBS, bloating, reflux, stomach aches, constipation, fatigue, or loose stools! An explanation of results is included as well as your personalized gut health protocol. This test can be added on to the 3 Month Package for $350.

*Gut health protocols take at least 8-12 weeks, sometimes extending the program from 3 months is necessary. Supplements are not included in pricing and should be budgeted for separately.

One on one coaching 4 month program for those looking to focus on addressing gut health! This package includes functional gut health testing (worth $350) with a gut health protocol based on your results. We start with addressing dietary and lifestyle supports as well as foundational digestive health habits based on your intake paperwork and food journals. Once we receive your GI Map results we have our review call and you receive your customized protocol based on your results. Gut health protocols take around 8-12 weeks, so follow ups are scheduled throughout the protocol to check in and at the end to determine maintenance gut support.

Includes:

  • 1 (60 min) Initial consult call
  • 1 GI Map Test
  • 1 (60 min) Results review call
  • Personalized Gut Health Protocol based on results
  • 3 (45 min) Follow Up calls spread out over the next 3 months
  • Food and Mood Journal review
  • Nutrition, lifestyle and supplement recommendations
  • Support via a secure chat
  • Therapeutic grade supplements at a 25 percent discount

Option for payment plan of $450 for the first month and $135 monthly for the next 3 months

Note: this package is best fit for those wanting to dig a little deeper into their gut health. If major foundational changes are warranted, the 3 month program may be a better fit to start with as it offers more regular support. For some clients, working on foundational dietary changes, wellness habits and proper digestive function first is appropriate to determine if there is even a need for a deeper dive with a GI Map. A GI Map can also be added onto the 3 month program if needed. Please schedule a discovery call to determine your best fit!

What Past Clients are Saying…

“Gave Me My Life Back”

I have seen such a dramatic improvement in my overall energy and eating habits since trusting Shannon with my health! She acknowledged not only my chronic fatigue and hair loss, but also my stress levels and random waves of anxiety. Shannon taught me how to make my well being, inside and out, a top priority. Her remedies have been so simple to implement into my life! She makes eating nutritional food quick and delicious and focuses on using natural, non-invasive, ways to nurture the body and mind! And now, I have consistent energy to do the basic tasks that once exhausted me! I have the mental assurance to trust my memory and my decisions! And, for the first time, I have control of my life and my health! Shannon is a practitioner, a mentor, and mostly, a friend! She gave me my life back and I will forever be grateful for that!

“The Investment Is Well Worth It”

Shannon is an excellent health and nutrition coach! I came to her with some health concerns that had been causing significant life disruptions. She took the time to hear about what was going on and identify what potential causes could be. We made some lifestyle and diet changes and I began to notice changes over time helping me be more holistically well. The journey is not over, but there has been far more progress than I could have gotten on my own.

If you’re dealing with any sort of chronic health condition, or just want to improve your health generally, I highly recommend working with her. She’s highly knowledgeable and is very understanding about the difficulties that come from health struggles and how we can improve our diet to overcome them. 

As a professional myself, I know that the only thing more expensive than a professional is an amateur. Shannon is a professional and will help get you progress where there was stagnation and frustration. Don’t hesitate. Reach out to her today. The investment is well worth it!

Frequently Asked Questions

Nutritional Therapy is a bio-individual approach to whole body health that uses nutrition, lifestyle changes and targeted nutrients to address imbalances in the body. It is not a quick fix, fad diet or magic pill, but rather addresses the root cause of symptoms. We uncover imbalances in the body using a nutritional symptom questionnaire and address those imbalances to reduce symptoms and bring whole body wellness. Nutritional therapy addresses your health at a foundational level, and uses a food first approach to nourish your body with what it needs to function properly again.
Nutritional Therapy builds health at a foundational level by addressing:
  •  A Nutrient Dense Diet
  •  Digestion
  • Blood Sugar Regulation
  •  Mineral Balance
  • Healthy Fats
  •  Hydration
  •  Sleep, Stress and Movement
This might be for you if...
  • You want to have enough energy to keep up with the demands of life.
  • You want to feel better but don't have much time or don't know where to start.
  •  You need to nourish yourself and your family, but need healthy meals that actually taste good and don't take much time.
  • You'd like to go through a day without feeling so bloated.
  •  You're a mom who doesn't have time to not feel good and needs to be operating at your best to be there for your family.
  • You're burnt out and want to feel less anxiety and frustration and feel more balanced.
  •  You're tired of being at the mercy of your hormones and want easier periods.
