What is functional nutritional therapy?
Functional Nutritional Therapy is a holistic approach to nutrition. A FNTP (Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner) uses a combination of diet, lifestyle, and supplementation to address the root cause, deficiencies, and imbalances in the body instead of masking symptoms. Nutritional therapy is not a quick fix magic pill or diet. We will tune into what your body needs so that you can reclaim your wellness and life.
Functional Nutritional Therapy Is bio-individual, meaning it is unique to you and your journey. There is no one size fits all diet.
Nutritional Therapy is based off of
Nutrient dense
Properly prepared
Whole food
It also relies on five foundations
DIGESTION - good digestion is essential to absorb the nutrients you eat.
BLOOD SUGAR - Stable blood sugar provides stable energy and less stress on your body.
FATTY ACID BALANCE - Helps to balance energy and hormones, and is essential for brain health.
MINERAL BALANCE - Minerals are key to many of the body’s processes.
HYDRATION - Water is your body’s most important nutrient.
Testimonials
“Karen was so kind and easy to work with. She carefully explained not only what I needed to do to improve my health, but also told me about the body systems and reasons behind why I was having issues. She showed me how symptoms that I thought were random were actually connected, and things that I thought I would just have to live with forever could be improved. She worked with me to make changes that were sustainable with my lifestyle, and gave me different options so I wasn’t overwhelmed. Karen is very knowledgeable, holistically minded, and I would highly recommend her if you are looking to find the real causes behind health problems you can’t seem to get rid of.” Victoria H.
“It has been such a great experience working with Karen. She is extremely knowledgeable and I have learned a lot about drainage, foundations, etc during our time working together. She is a great listener and always answers my questions thoughtfully and gracefully. In our current day, it has become almost impossible to find a great practitioner, but I am so happy that I found Karen.” Laura H.

+ What is the Functional Clinical Assessment?
The FCA is an assessment that is done at in person appointments. It tests different reflex points and oragans to see what your body's unique stress points are. The FCA also includes lingual-neuro testing (LNT). LNT tests specific foods and supplements on those points to see which ones would be most beneficial to support and address your symptoms. I am currently not seeing clients in person at this time.
+ Do you do any functional testing?
I use HTMA testing to evaluate clients mineral balance/imbalances. I like it because it is non-invasive, afforadable compared to other labs, and gives valuable health information to help clients concerns.
+ What does HTMA stand for?
HTMA stands for Hair Tissue Meneral Analysis.
