When I discovered I was pregnant a few months ago, I made an appointment with Karen because I…read morewanted to go over the nutrition that would be needed during my pregnancy as a vegetarian. Prior to meeting her, she asked me to keep a food log for three days which she used to prepare a very detailed diet analysis which we went over during our meeting; I was impressed with how in depth the analysis was and what I learned from it. In addition to that, we went over the supplements that I was taking... she understands and knows how to use nutrition fact labels and I ended up switching prenatal vitamins based on her review of what I was taking at the time to what she suggested as a better alternative. I was hoping that she would advise more on what I should eat and have some recommended meal plans but that was not included in her scope of services... perhaps I need to see a dietician for that? Nonetheless, I was pleased that she was able to confirm my diet was more than enough to provide my developing baby with the nutrients and such that he needed and felt good about having met with her.

Karen will give you information that your doctor won't. She is amazing. When your doctor looks…read moreat your blood work they most likely just look to see if you are in the "standard range" or close. If so, they tell you all is good. What if your blood work comes back all in the standard range but you still don't feel great? You know you can feel better. That is what Karen can help with. What to do to get this level up, this level down... how to achieve optimal health. I highly recommend Karen.

Andrea is an incredible nutritionist. She is knowledgeable and passionate about what she does,…read morewhich makes meeting with her exciting! I had never been to a nutritionist before and I learned so much. I had several things I wanted to tackle and she helped break it down for me so it felt achievable. One of the best things about Andrea's practice is she takes a truly individualized approach to everything and doesn't try to slap a generic nutrition and exercise plan on everyone. I would 100% recommend her to anyone thinking about seeing a nutritionist.

I started seeing Andrea in June 2016 and have seen consistent weight loss, totaling 20lbs so far…read more But that's almost beside the point (although a good one!) My goals included weight loss while building athletic strength for my sport. It's more than possible and Andrea has been an amazing guide. I follow her plan for me (adjusted for what's happening) and BAM, like magic (or science), what she says happens :) Andrea is always accessible when I need her, continues to be my cheerleader and is also my support for the times when I struggle. THOSE are the moments that mean the most. She listens and understands the roadblocks I may face and always responds with positive energy in how to come back even stronger with nutrition protocols that are tailored to me. I continue to learn and am creating a healthy relationship with food, and heck, even with myself! This is all about long term health and I'm so grateful to have Andrea as a guide!

My wife encouraged me to work with a nutritionist and at first I was resistant. However, working…read morewith Jessica has taught me more about nutrition in my six months with her than I've learned my whole life- and I thought I knew a lot! I have been working out hard before and during covid but once on her plan, my fitness reached a whole new level. I made weight and body fat goals that I've been trying to reach for years. She also gave me really helpful diet and supplement tips to help keep my metabolism and immunity strong during the covid craze. Working with Vital Root Wellness is probably the best investment I've made this year.... It kept me strong, fit, happy, energized and feeling good which we all know has been tough to do recently.

I'm a 69-year-old woman who has always taken my doctor's word as gospel...they have the answers but…read morenot always were their answers beneficial. A few years ago, I was experiencing horrible leg cramps during the day and especially at night which was extremely disruptive to my sleep. My doctor said "you should stretch more and take electrolytes"....well I was stretching every day and taking a LOT of electrolytes with no results. Jessica listened and suggested trying some nutrients which apparently had been missing in my diet which would enhance absorption of electrolytes into my muscle cells to relieve the cramping...I cannot begin to tell you what a difference that has made...those recommended nutrients have basically relieved me from all cramping and my sleep is now quite good. I was taking Ativan to help with sleep and no more! I recently had surgery for a complete knee replacement. My doctor said I cannot take anti-inflammatory drugs since I am on blood thinners and have elevated blood pressure. Jessica suggested some diet modifications and a few supplements for pain relief and a speedier recovery. I am so thankful for her help...I notice relief almost immediately. My blood pressure has improved a lot. And not to mention that my hair and skin also improved tremendously... all the meds from surgery and the anesthesia really took a toll on my hair and skin. She also recommended a natural alternative to my prescription anxiety medication which I was very skeptical about at first but has turned out to be a huge help. One less medication to take makes me very happy!

Gracie and I have been working together for about 2 months now and my goals were to educate myself…read more on going plant based after considering it for some time as well as how to make it easy to stick with my new diet given my busy schedule. She helped me to dispel some of the myths behind the questions of nutrients, proteins and health risks of switching to a vegan or plant based diet. There was no judgement to the fact that I still consume the occasional animal product. She just wanted to help me get all of the information I needed to make my own decision and to be there to help and support with any struggles or questions I had. I can't recommend her enough given the approach she takes, the breadth of knowledge she has to share and her ability to make my new diet choices work within a life that is considerably busy. Thanks a million Gracie!

After 25 years of being a vegetarian, I decided to make some big changes by transitioning to a…read moreplant-based diet and exercising. I researched extensively as I would with any provider, and felt that Grace's knowledge, expertise, and humor would make her the perfect provider for me. She helped me identify and incorporate more plant-based proteins, iron, vitamin c, calcium, zinc, and probiotics into my diet. After our sesh, I gave my pantry a total makeover with lots of oxo containers and labels because #typeAproblems. I make her hemp seed ranch and strawberry chia jam every single week. I was purchasing strawberry jam from Donna Jean but my husband says Grace's recipe is better and I have to agree! She was also incredibly flexible accommodating my busy schedule which was greatly appreciated. Thank you, Grace!

Sam helped me change my life. Prior to meeting Sam, I had been stuck in a rut. I was postpartum…read morealmost two years, and I hadn't lost the weight I had gained despite working out consistently and eating relatively healthy. It wasn't until I started working with Sam that I realized my idea of healthy, really didn't take into consideration some fundamental truths about nutrition. I quickly learned in my 1:1 sessions how I needed to pivot, and Sam helped me overcome some fears and unfounded food beliefs I had been carrying around. While I believe what Sam is doing should be provided to everyone and especially to school ages children, I am just lucky enough to have gone on Yelp, taken a chance with her, and had the absolute best 6 months of my life. Not only did Sam help me reinvent some of my eating habits, but she changed the trajectory of my health and I believe supported my fertility and conception of baby#2. I highly recommend Sam as a nutritionist, she really invests in you as a person and your healthy future. Thanks Sam!

My life is better in so many ways since meeting Sam! Sam has helped me focus on ME! While my…read moreinitial goal was weight loss, Sam opened my eyes to so much more besides blaming it on food. She showed me how to view food differently. She showed me the how, the why, and everything in between from becoming a better eater but being a better person to myself! I have more clarity on how food affects my body, more knowledgeable about different foods, how to cook them to taste delicious, and it's ok to have a bad moment, there is no judgment. I recognize now how important sleep is and how stress builds on negative outcomes. I am mentally stronger when it comes to food that I actually read the ingredients on every label that enters my home. I am more mindful of my eating habits and eating slowly. Sam taught me to see food as medicine and that changed how I view food. Don't get me wrong, I'll have a cheat meal here and there, but I stay mindful with no judgement, and I can't thank Sam enough for instilling positive vibes and energy into my life! Sam helped me overcome, not only how to become a better eater for me, but for my family. I was also going through one of the hardest times in my life, and I could not have gotten through it without her. I HIGHLY recommend Sam!

I was greeted right away with all questions/concerns answered to my satisfaction, and then they gladly offered me the Groupon rate in house. My husband and I are very pleased with our experience. The two girls are very sweet, and they give shots like a pro. I'm not much for needles, so I was pleasantly surprised when I barely felt my injections. Overall, we are very happy and wish we lived closer to take more advantage of our package. If you're looking to jump start your lifestyle or wanting to lose a few lbs for an event, this your place.

I've always been yo-yo…read moredieting and for the last three years I've been on and off the keto diet which is the worst possible thing I could've done for my health. Starting with Sandy, I had PTSD about eating any kind of carbs and she was able to help me mindfully eat everything I wanted to without over eating and without having to restrain myself too hard. While working with her, I did lose 10 pounds but I actually gained more in knowledge, and understanding of how to eat, when to eat, what to eat, and everything in between. Losing weight is not easy but you really have to know yourself and Sandy takes the time to get to know her clients and I felt like she really knew my lifestyle and was able to come up with something for me that worked well with my lifestyle and I could maintain not only as a diet or a program but as a lifestyle for the rest of my life.
