A WHOLE BODY APPROACH TO WELLNESS
Read more about Dr. Nathan's story and Dr. Rebecca's story.Â
As leading functional wellness practitioners, Drs. Nathan and Rebecca specialize in taking a personalized, whole body approach to health and healing. They understand that optimal wellness goes beyond simply managing symptoms—it requires identifying and addressing the root causes of health challenges. By viewing the body as an interconnected system, they create customized wellness plans designed to remove stressors, restore balance, and empower the body’s natural ability to heal itself.
It’s important to note that Drs. Nathan and Rebecca do not treat you or heal you. Instead, their role is to identify and remove the stressors and interferences that may be hindering your body’s natural healing process and allow to the body to do what it’s created to do: HEAL. They focus on supporting you every step of the way, providing guidance and resources tailored to your unique needs. This partnership empowers you to take control of your health and achieve long-lasting results.
What they do is called coaching because meaningful, life-changing wellness takes time and they are committed to supporting each one of their clients by walking alongside them on their journey to better health. They believe that lasting change happens through education, guidance, and support, empowering you to make informed decisions and build sustainable habits for a healthier life.
Every plan that they put together is different, because what you need to heal will be dependent on your own body. The doctors do not merely treat or mask symptoms; because of this, not everyone is ready for this approach. But if you are committed to the time and educational process required, they know they can get you well.
THE COMPONENTS OF FUNCTIONAL WELLNESS COACHING
When the doctors are determining what you need to be well, their recommendations will span some or all of the components below. The goal is to provide you with the specific next steps to focus on so that you are equipped, not overwhelmed; reclaiming your health is a journey.
Functional Nutrition
Everything you eat is either moving your body one step toward or one step back from your health goals.
From beginners to advanced, we meet clients where they are and move them one step in the right direction toward better nutrition. The goal is to equip each individual with lifetime behavioral changes at a pace that is sustainable.
Clients accustomed to the standard American diet may start off with Paleo, while other clients may be coached through how to use ketosis as a powerful healing tool. We utilize advanced nutrition strategies based on specific health issues.
Due to the important role of nutrition in cellular healing, clients submit a one-week food diary prior to each functional wellness consultation.
Fasting Strategies
Just as proper nutrition is critical for providing the body with the fuel that it needs to heal, giving the body a rest from digestion is also a powerful tool. There are several benefits to water fasting, such as:
-
Autophagy, where the body rids itself of damaged cells
-
Stem cell generation
-
DNA repair
-
Hormone optimization
-
Resetting of your gut microbiome
-
Increased insulin sensitivity
We coach clients through daily intermittent fasting, regular 24-hour fasts, and also when and how to complete an extended block fast. Learn more about fasting on our beginner, intermediate, and advanced blog posts.
Lab Work and Testing
The goal of functional wellness is to identify and address the root cause of the client's symptoms. We do not treat or cover up symptoms; instead, we equip the body with the tools it needs to heal. For this reason, we often utilize blood work and testing to help identify the underlying cause. While our shop page lists our most popular tests, we have a number of testing options to utilize based on our clients' specific needs. Tests broadly fall into the categories of:
-
Hormone imbalances
-
Gut health
-
Heavy metal toxicity
-
Mycotoxins
-
Tickborne diseases
-
Food allergy and micronutrient deficiency
View our most popular tests here, but speak to a member of our team for additional testing options.
Supplement Protocols
Each client follows a supplement protocol recommendation customized to their health goals. This protocol may be as basic as addressing deficiencies on blood work, to an advanced plan to address underlying issues found on test results. Advanced protocols may address:
-
Thyroid disorders and hormonal imbalances
-
Cellular Detoxification
-
Systemic infections
-
Intestinal pathogens, parasites, or digestive issues
-
Metabolic disorders
-
Spectrum and neurological disorders
-
Infertility
Please note we do not prescribe medications; we utilize the highest quality natural supplements that support your body's natural healing process. For some clients who do need medications, we work alongside your primary care practitioner's recommendations.
Lifestyle Recommendations
Because we take a holistic approach to wellness, we also identify and discuss two additional things with our clients.
First, we go over areas in their lives that may be holding them back from achieving their health goals. We understand that one's health is personal, and implementing changes can be an emotional process. We encourage and coach clients through the importance of having the right mindset during this process.
Second, we discuss tools and biohacks clients can incorporate into their routine to support their healing process. Following each consult, we will send our clients resources on specific biohacks we identified as being advantageous to them.
