I have been seeing Laureen for a couple of months now. She is absolutely fantastic to work with…read more Her positive energy and encouragement are always appreciated. She is completely non judgmental. I don't feel any shame sharing my setbacks, she just helps me work through them. I have just completed her 21 day purification cleanse. I had never done a cleanse before, so this was important. The process was well organized and taught me new recipes along the way. Unfortunately I waited to see Laureen after I got my gallbladder removed. I feel that with her help I could have avoided a costly surgery brought on by my poor eating habits in the past. Laureen is a wealth of knowledge and fun to work with. Nutrition is not something you can put off. I learned the hard way (& expensive way). Take the time to invest in yourself. You're worth it. I highly recommend Laureen to my friends and family.

My doctor wanted to refer me to a nutritionist but I decided to go out on my own. Through another website and a friend, I discovered Ruben (and others) with Fit To Be In Your Kitchen. Ruben tailored a meal plan and work out to my specific needs. I actually lost some weight and very slowly gained after that. My doctor was very impressed with my progress. I was never hungry and never felt deprived of foods I wanted (because I wasn't). Ruben's approach is not about food elimination to get you to your goal but about portion sizes and eating foods with the macronutrients your body needs when you need it. My workouts were fabulous too! I was lifting weights in the gym and doing cardio up until 2 days before my baby was born. I don't feel like I lost any muscle or conditioning at all. Thanks to Ruben I had a very healthy pregnancy and am continuing those new habits into motherhood.

I'm writing this after the first month, but so impressed I decided to share the review. I've already lost ~ 15 pounds, which was above my expectations. Her approach helped me to achieve this with outstanding balance and satiation. Her methodology is hands-on. She provided a customized written itinerary and meal plan for me with ongoing education, meal plans, and lessons where I learned how to balance my diet to fit my short and long-term goals - creating a bridge to self-sufficiency and sustained results. She meets the client with communication and approaches with voice recordings, text messages, email - and/or all of the above approach depending on the client's preferences. Her program is immersive and again focused on education and continued success. Her package provided tremendous value. The Program went above and beyond expectations. I won't view my eating habits, diet, and food the same way again. I recommend Melody's Macronazi Nutrition Coaching without reservation!

I wanted an alternative so I decided to seek out a medical dietitian. I found Lisa Dawes who was in my area. I have been with Lisa for ten weeks now. First, she went over my blood tests. She made suggestions on my food program as well as vitamins and supplements. I took her suggestions and applied them. Along the way she listens and takes the time to understand my lifestyle and tailors her advice to my needs. I feel more confident on my food choices now. Lisa doesn't say you should not eat this or that. She creates space for you to make the decision for you to choose if you want to eat a cookie or a slice of cake or whatever. What I learned is that it's important to be in the moment so you can make the choice. Lisa provides not only dietary advice but also emotional support during my journey. Lisa's advice was stop weighing yourself as your body will take care of itself by being on the program. This is so true. After 3 weeks, I saw a difference in my clothes and feeling so much better about myself. I also have better sleeping. Seeking out help was a present to myself. And my husband saw her once to get his plan too which was very helpful to him. This is a lifestyle change with mindful eating. I can't thank Lisa enough. She has made a positive impact on my health journey. I hope this review gives a spark to others to seek out a medical dietitian like Lisa Dawes.

I travel for work and have been to quite a few med spas around the country, and I can honestly say this was by far the best one I've ever been to. My wife gets extremely nervous about IVs because her veins tend to roll, and she's always worried that no one will be able to get the IV on the first try. Kristie got her on the first try! My wife couldn't stop talking about how happy she was afterward. That alone made the experience worth it, but the entire visit was exceptional. The atmosphere is beautiful, relaxing, and comfortable. Kristie asked enough questions to make sure she understood exactly what we needed while also giving us plenty of privacy and space to relax. Everything felt personal without ever feeling rushed. From the moment we walked in until the moment we walked out, we felt taken care of. I would recommend Med Spa SLO 100%! If you're looking for a place where you're treated like a person, not just another customer, this is absolutely the place to go. We will definitely be back!

I found Stephanie after being utterly let down by western medicine practitioners after trying to…read moreget relief for some digestive issues I had struggled with for over a year. After seeing numerous doctors through my insurance who made me feel both insulted (one doctor said that my bloating was either menstrual or due to eating an abundance of nuts- neither were the case in the slightest) and not taken seriously with what i'd been experiencing, I was growing depressed and in fear whenever I ate anything. I even went so far as to have a colonoscopy/endoscopy at age 27! The results were that I had some inflammation in my esophagus and I was put on an over the counter acid reducer, which only made my symptoms of bloating, fatigue and rashes even worse! It was so bad that if I ate certain things I would fall asleep in the middle of the day due to my body just shutting down, very scary for me as a busy and generally healthy person in my mid twenties. After speaking with my Husband and parents, they agreed with me that seeking out a nutritionist/holistic practitioner was the only way to progress in having any hope of finding a diagnosis. I found Sound Body Nutrition and called immediately out of sheer desperation and I believe I scheduled a free consultation for either that day or the next day! From that very first conversation, I could tell immediately that Stephanie cared about my plight and even told me that something similar had happened to her with misdiagnosis, which made me feel so much more at ease to know that she had true empathy for my situation. She was flexible with me about accepting a payment plan, and I felt so incredibly supported as I went through the testing and awaited results. It was life changing to get the results back and see that not only had I been eating healthy foods that were causing inflammation in my system (garbanzo beans were one for me, so just goes to show that triggers can be anything!), but I had an overgrowth of H.Pylori which explained all of my symptoms! In addition to that, the H.pylori had actually lowered my stomach acid, thus making it harder to digest reasonable foods (I am a trained chef and we already ate all organic and gluten free as my Husband has Crohn's Disease and is Celiac). The acid reducer that the Gastroenterologist had put me on was the opposite treatment to what my body actually needed, no wonder I felt worse! After over a year of being convinced that nothing major was wrong, or made to feel by doctors that the symptoms were all in my head because they could not figure out what was wrong, I was finally validated. Over the course of the next months, (I began treatment about one month before our wedding!) I was put on a supplement protocol and by the time of the wedding I was already feeling much better than I had been! Now, about 5 months later I am able to eat freely, feel better than I have in years, and am not in constant fear of having symptoms any time I eat. I was aided so much through the program that my Husband, who has a long history of digestive issues, went through her program as well, and we are both now feeling better than we have since our health issues began. If you are on the fence, or intimidated by the cost, I can say that it may seem like a lot, but how much I value my sanity and physical health is really priceless, and Stephanie really and truly saved our lives. I was barely able to get out of bed, and now we live on a farm and work all day with energy to spare! I hope that anyone who needs help, or has lost faith in a majority of western medicine finds Sound Body Nutrition. It has been absolutely life changing for us both. Thank you, Stephanie, you were/are a pleasure to work with. You are such a kind, genuine, compassionate and knowledgeable human being, and we are so glad we found you!
