This 50-minute comprehensive consultation includes an in-depth review of your health history, current symptoms, dietary intake, lifestyle factors, and wellness goals. Together, we establish a personalized, root-cause–focused foundation to guide your care.

Functional Lab Ordering & Analysis (as needed)

When appropriate, functional lab testing is used to gain deeper insight into your unique physiology and what may be driving symptoms beneath the surface. Lab testing is always optional and will be discussed in detail during your Initial Consultation to determine relevance and next steps

Medical-Grade Body Composition Scans

Each session includes a body composition analysis using multi-frequency impedance technology. These scans assess skeletal muscle mass, body fat, mineral status, hydration levels, and basal metabolic rate (BMR) to provide objective insights that guide personalized nutrition and lifestyle recommendations. In-office only.

Using a combination of clinical assessment, body composition data, and lab results (when applicable), you’ll receive a fully personalized, science-backed action plan. Recommendations may include therapeutic nutrition, targeted supplements, botanicals, and lifestyle strategies tailored to your body’s specific needs.

Sustainable health is built through consistent, intentional changes over time. These 30-minute monthly follow-up sessions focus on progress review, habit refinement, and strategic adjustments to ensure continued momentum and long-term results.

You’ll receive direct access to our secure client portal for messaging Chelsea between sessions, ensuring continued support, clarification, and guidance as questions arise.

Our functional nutrition consulting may be right for you if…

You feel “off.”
You know your body better than anyone. If something doesn’t feel right—and persistent symptoms have left you frustrated or searching for answers—we help uncover what’s happening beneath the surface so you can feel like yourself again.

You feel stuck.
What once worked no longer does, and no matter how hard you try, it feels like your body is pushing back. We help identify hidden roadblocks, fill in the gaps, and guide you forward with a clear, personalized path toward your goals.

You’re done with quick fixes.
You’re ready to step away from food trends and fad diets and focus on what your body actually needs. Our root-cause, individualized approach is designed for sustainable, long-term results—not temporary solutions.

Common conditions we work with include IBS, IBD, GERD/Reflux, candida, PCOS, estrogen dominance, insomnia, adrenal fatigue, hypothyroidism, acne, eczema, amenorrhea, Rheumatoid arthritis, fatigue, and anxiety, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, and insulin resistance to name a few. Many clients come to us with a mixture of symptoms but no clear answer to what’s causing them. We help them find that answer so we can honor the root cause accordingly. However, we also frequently work with clients who feel well and want to optimize their overall health, athletic performance, and longevity.

Everybody and every body is different, but the most common feedback we hear from our clients is:

• Increased energy

• Sharpened mental clarity

• Sounder sleep / waking more rested

• Improved digestion and reduced GI distress/bloat

• Reduced cravings for sugar, caffeine, and fats

• Reduced inflammation, aches, and pains

• Stronger immunity/less frequency of illness

• Clearer skin

• Feeling more balanced, regulated, and aware

• A stronger understanding and confidence of personal wellness
