Nutritional Therapy Services, LLC offers nutritional counseling to address digestive disorders, blood sugar dysregulation, weight loss, adrenal fatigue, hormonal imbalances, food sensitivities and more. Nutritional Therapist and Certified Holistic Nutritionist, Melissa Gauna, counsels clients on how to use food as medicine and how to transition from the Standard American Diet (SAD) to a nutrient-dense, whole-foods diet. She believes in bio-individuality and believes the body has the innate ability to heal itself, given the right foods.
Melissa teaches group classes, offers corporate wellness programs and also counsels one-on-one. She is very passionate about her work and building strong relationships with her clients. If you have doctor's orders to eat better, Melissa can help bridge the gap between doctor's orders and your efforts at home. Melissa partners with licensed practitioners in the Rio Grande Valley to create true partnerships in health.
ServicesNutritional Therapy Services offers one-on-one nutrition consulting, comprehensive 12-week weight loss program, corporate wellness program and other personalized programs. We facilitate testing when appropriate, such as food sensitivity testing, to further customize a nutrition program for clients. We are also able to review blood chemistry labs to support imbalances in body systems. Nutritional therapy seeks to identify nutritional deficiencies in order to address those deficiencies using foods and targeted nutrients. We start with a Nutritional Assessment, using an online questionnaire as well as a thorough health history and review of a food journal. We look to identify healing opportunities in order to bring the body back to balance so that we can delay or even reverse illness. Our goal is to stop the momentum of disease and support the body to heal itself. Additional ServicesHolistic Nutritionist, Nutritional Consulting, Nutrition Counseling, Nutritional Therapy
