Approach
Most chronic degenerative illnesses are on the rise. Current interventions target easing the pain and suffering but have little to offer in addressing underlying causes. Meanwhile study-after-study confirms that our day-to-day nutrition and lifestyle choices are often at the root of these conditions. Alison believes that the best approach to take for helping people improve their health is through coaching and education. This allows Alison to work individually with people, and to combine her nutrition knowledge with skills that she has learned through her education and coaching experience. Alison builds her program around a foundational understanding of nutrition, the single most important ingredient of a long term, sustainable health program. She emphasizes the importance of Nutrition Education with her clients. Learning how food effects your body and health is the key to living a healthy lifestyle. Alison also undertands the importance of proper nutrition for optimal performance. Whether you want to prevent future health issues, feel better, or reach an athletic goal, Alison will design a plan that meets your individual goals and needs.
