SO MANY BOOKS...

...WHO HAS THE TIME?

We would all love to know what the secret formula is to stay healthy, less fat and less old.  

Challenge is almost every health book worth it's pages, has too many pages.  Would a plumber suffering with chronic heart burn or a mother of three under 5, with chronic fatigue syndrome have the time to invest to not just learn a new healthcare profession and make even some of the recipes in the back of the book?

I've read 90% of all displayed in our spa and even though they all have very specific and specialized areas of expertise they all seem to sum up to the following:-

Lifestyle. Lifestyle. Lifestyle.

Stress from everyday life--over-scheduled, traffic, work.

Stress from poor nutrition--fast or slow food lacking nutrients

Stress from lack of adequate or restful sleep

Stress from too little or too much exercise

Over 75% of all doctors visit is due to stress.  Stress is the cause of most chronic illness, malfunctioning of systems in your body.

Learn ways to better handle everyday unavoidable stress.  Take up meditation or yoga.

Eat nutritious functional foods that keep your gut healthy; organic and whole.

Get enough sleep. 

Find the right balance or type of exercise.

Kick start your health equity building with a sauna session!  You are sure to experience stress reduction, detoxification, a seated cardiovascular workout and even improved sleep. 

What is FDN and how does FDN work?

What is FDN?

Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN) is a type of detective work that seeks to identify and correct the underlying causes and conditions that lead to your clients’ health complaints. FDN health detectives do NOT diagnose or treat any disease,  nor do we practice medicine. Everything we do is science and evidence based.

We use carefully chosen functional lab work and a complete client health and lifestyle history to investigate underlying malfunctions of the adrenal glands, mucosal barrier, detoxification systems, metabolic processes, absorption and assimilation, immune and defense mechanisms and steroid hormone balance to name a few.  When data from these labs are correctly interpreted along with other clues, the healing opportunities are revealed.

FDN protocols are natural. We know that the body wants to return to homeostasis (good health). FDN protocols jump start the body’s ability to return to health and stay there.

How FDN Works

The FDN view of symptoms like joint pain, muscle pain, skin issues, digestive upset and every other health complaint, is that they all have causal factors that need to be investigated. Even in tough cases, FDN protocols can repair & restore organs & systems that are struggling.

Masking symptoms with medication allows underlying conditions to get worse.  Relieving symptoms is important, but your likely going to need additional therapy or stronger medications. 

Educating clients how to get well and stay well is our top task. That means teaching them not to ignore symptoms, but to realize that symptoms are signals from the body that something is wrong. There’s no such thing as a normal headache. All symptoms are clues about what’s really going on internally. Symptoms and lab tests paint a picture about your client’s biology. FDN practitioners are trained to use these clues to hone in on clients’ hidden stressors and develop a customized protocol that will help them leave their symptoms behind and live a naturally healthy life.
