ROUTINE SERVICES
The heart of my practice, since opening 17 years ago, has been Routine Services available as packages and on an hourly basis.
Routine Nutrition Packages
Comprehensive Dietary Package is our basic package for healthy eating, weight management, as well as chronic disease management (type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fatty liver).
Prenatal Nutrition Package provides three versions of a Meal Plan (one for each trimester) for women who are expecting a child.
Healthy Aging Package is for middle-aged and older adults to help them maintain their health as they age, including retaining their muscle and bone mass.
Routine Clinical Packages
Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) Package is for women struggling with the symptoms of PCOS, with a focus on weight loss and lowering insulin resistance.
Menopause Management Package addresses the weight gain, sleep disruption, and varying mood that often accompany peri-menopause and menopause.
Hypothyroid Management Package provides dietary support for Hashimoto’s disease and other types of hypothyroidism with a focus on weight loss and nutrients of importance in the conversion of thyroid hormones.
Hourly Services
Initial Hourly Consultation is a non-clinical appointment to meet, share goals and health background, discuss various service options, and determine if we are a “good fit”. Any remaining time in this appointment can be “banked” for future follow-up services after completing one of the packages.
Clinical Hourly Services is for clinical work on an hourly basis or for individual follow-up appointments.
Specialty Hourly Services are nutrition education sessions available on topics, including reducing constipation and hemorrhoids, functional dyspepsia, gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD) and acid reflux, gout, hiatus hernia, kidney stone diet, and macular degeneration.
Structure of Routine Packages
While each Routine Health package has a different clinical focus, the structure of services in each package is similar.
-
- The first service in all Routine Health packages is an in-depth clinical assessment, which includes a personal and family medical history to assess risk factors, as well as the collection of detailed dietary and lifestyle information.
-
- The second service in all Routine Health packages is the design of your individual Meal Plan, based on your specific goals related to the chosen package, risk factors, food preferences, and any religious, cultural, or ethical food restrictions.
-
- The third service in all Routine Health packages is the Nutrition Education Session, which begins by reviewing any risk factors such as weight, waist circumference, or out-of-range lab test results. This is followed by detailed teaching of your Meal Plan, including serving sizes, number of portions, and how to make substitutions, and an outline of dietary and lifestyle recommendations based on your goals and risk factors. The session concludes by answering questions you may have.
-
- The fourth service varies depending on the specific Routine Health package chosen.
Meal Plan Options
Dietary patterns available include vegetarian, Mediterranean, or low-carb and keto (previously offered through a dedicated low-carb division), and all routine Meal Plans can be designed from an anti-inflammatory perspective, at no extra cost.
