Sandy is a Functional Nutritional Therapist, trained through the Nutritional Therapy Association. As a Holistic Nutritionist she believes that a myriad of health problems plaguing modern society result from dysfunction in the body’s physiological foundations brought on by poor nutrition and very often includes poor digestion.  Her holistic approach follows the guidelines of the Weston A. Price Foundation, focusing on the importance of a properly prepared, nutrient dense, whole foods diet. She realizes the importance of our ability to break down food to use the vitamins and nutrients that our body depends on. 

"We see so many people that have problems with their digestion and how it has impacted their physical and mental health. Often times we work on digestion and other problems get resolved".

Sandy will assess nutritional status and check for inflammation in the body. She can tell where the body's priorities are based on reviewing bloodwork, exam, testing, symptoms and client history. She works with your body's innate intelligence for the best solution. She uses food and supplements as tools for healing and guide you in an individualized way.
