Nutritional Support & Supplements

“It is the choice of foods by each individual person today, that will determine their physical condition tomorrow”
- Dr.Royal Lee - Founder of Standard Process

In the clinic we care about the food you eat because of the way it affects your tissue. A diet which is high in processed flour and sugar; and lacks fresh vegetables and protein will result in skin that feels thickened and hard. The fascia sticks to itself, to bones, to the tendons and the muscles and creates a condition where the body lacks movement from the inside out. When there is a lack of movement, injuries occur. People also eat many foods that are not constitutionally good for them. This can create blood stagnation in Chinese medicine and inflammation in Western medicine. Both result in mechanical issues of the stomach, intestines and the colon. Problems with these organs result in overall toxicity. Chronic malnutrition, inflammation, blood stagnation and toxicity result in conditions such as cancer, auto immune disease, chronic pain, frequent colds and flu and even conditions such as depression and anxiety.

Supplementation

I work exclusively with Standard Process. These are medical grade nutrition with high quality ingredients grown on the SP organic farm in Wisconsin. The goal of supplementation  is to provide added nutrients for the body that are as close as possible to how they are found in nature. These nutrients are easily digested and utilized by the body unlike supplements produced in a lab which often take more energy to digest than they provide to the body. 

Standard Process Company places great pride in providing ongoing training for their practitioners. I routinely participate in classes which allows me to bring the highest quality diagnostic tools to the table.

Nutrition

The Nutritional therapy we practice is based on eating whole foods blended with the principles of traditional Chinese medicine and blood type. Nutrition plays a vital part in treating and healing both chronic and acute orthopedic conditions and internal disorders. Certain foods such as wheat, dairy, white sugar, corn, and nightshades may inflame soft tissue. When the body is inflamed, its as if you are creating a distraction and misdirecting energy the body needs to heal the condition. I recommend a non inflammatory diet especially during your treatment so that you will see optimal result in the shortest amount of time.
