Initial Nutrition Assessment- Includes a 30min-1 1/2 hour nutrition assessment. Length is dependent on clients needs. Most consultations last 1 hour 15 min. The assessment involves looking at your medical history, diet practices, and lifestyle habits. Stacie's extensive approach is to give her a thorough idea of all the elements that can impact your nutrition. After the assessment we will work on developing goals and the best nutrition care plan that will work for you to meet your goals.
Follow Ups- Each follow up exam is 30-60 min depending on your current nutrition needs. There are many layers to nutrition, and it is impossible to cover everything in one appointment. It takes time to make new dietary lifestyle habits; therefore it is highly recommended that clients schedule follow up appointments in order to gain the most benefit from their nutritional services. Dietitians can act as an accountability partner and help guide you on your way. Research shows that individuals who sees their dietitian at least 1x per month for 6 months are more likely to maintain their dietary changes, than individuals who go fewer times.
Packages available for multiple sessions.
