Fertility
Here to help you thrive during pregnancy.
The journey to a healthy pregnancy can be a roller coaster of emotions. You might feel frustrated, confused, have information overload and feel burnt out from trying to do all the right things to be left disappointed month after month.
The truth is, there is so much conflicting and overwhelming information out there and you don’t need to sort through it all on your own. What you need is support from someone who understands the science, can look at your unique situation and help create a roadmap to get you where you want to be - vibrant, calm and supporting a healthy pregnancy.
Through functional testing, nutritional therapy, targeted supplements and lifestyle recommendations I’m here to give you a clear plan of action to not only heal your hormones, support your fertility but give you lasting results.

Osteoporosis
Your path to better bone density, fear free movement and reduced fracture risk.
An osteoporosis diagnosis comes with a host of concerns, you might feel worried about being able to stay active or maintaining your independence. Maybe you’re just down right confused about what can help bone density and what’s effective and what’s safe?
Here’s what we know - strength training is one of the best ways to not only improve bone density, but to also increase muscle and support independence through practicing functional movements and maintaining mobility.
The key piece is that you need to strength train in a way that is safe and effective for osteoporosis. This means avoiding certain movements, honing in on mastering others, loading the bones in the right way and improving posture and balance.
I’ve helped over a hundred women in supporting their bone health through safe and effective practices and can help you do the same. And, if you’re looking for extra support from a nutrition stand point - I can help there too! Create a comprehensive bone health strategy with 1:1 nutrition support that includes functional testing, nutritional therapy, targeted supplements and lifestyle recommendations.
