WHAT WE DO
At Optimal Health and Nutrition, we are committed to bringing a patient-centered approach to optimize your health. We focus on sustainable lifestyle changes rather than dieting and counting carbs because not only is this not realistic, but our health is so much more dynamic. We recognize the importance of utilizing a functional perspective. This means we look at the whole body and treat the root cause of our client’s health issues rather than treat the signs and symptoms.

Functional Testing
At Optimal Health and Nutrition, we utilize functional lab tests. The purpose of functional lab tests is to identify the underlying root cause of health issues by providing a deeper look into a patients biochemical imbalances. This allows healthcare practitioners to create personalized treatment plans based on individual needs, rather than just treating symptoms. It helps to "dig deeper" to understand a patient's health beyond standard lab tests by examining various metabolic and nutritional factors.
Sports Performance
As a previous D1 collegiate indoor and beach volleyball athlete with professional beach volleyball experience, my job was to perform at my highest ability consistently. The importance of an athlete’s ability to perform at one’s highest level every day is what truly makes the best player. How can I perform consistently every day? Discover how our personalized approach can make a difference in performance.
