    I completed Lindsay's 6 week program and wow! I can truly say that it was a life changing…read moreexperience!! In the past 4 years, I had gained 40+ lbs due to some special medicine I was taking (and probably some overeating of hamburgers too haha). I tried EVERYTHING to get rid of it. Juice cleanses, special diets, pills, multiple private trainers, you name it and I had done it. Unfortunately, nothing stuck. Knowing my wedding was just around the corner, I had to do something to get the weight off for good. I wanted to feel confident on my wedding day! I found Lindsay through a quick yelp search and was intrigued. Let's get this straight. This is not a special fad diet or some strict eating plan, its a way of life! Lindsay gives you the tools, skills, and mindset to make a long lasting change in your lifestyle. During the course of the 6 weeks, I lost 8+ lbs and now (more than 3 months later) I'm still continuing to lose weight by following what she taught me. I plan to be at my goal weight in the next 3 months (in time for my wedding!) And most importantly, I feel fantastic!!!!! I feel like a whole new person. Yes, it's a monetary investment but it was worth every penny :) do it!!!

    I'm very happy I decided to use Lindsay! I just completed her 6-week program. As someone who has…read morealways been fixated on the latest diet and exercise trend, I feel like this time I actually learned how to have a healthy lifestyle versus temporary fixes. What I appreciated the most was her accessibility. She would review menus of restaurants I was eating at or provide me with customized recommendations. When I was frustrated with results or what the scale said, she was non-judgmental and offered helpful advice for how to overcome cravings or emotional reactions. In fact, I was surprised (in a good way) by how much of the program was centered around mindfulness and balance. Even though the program only includes 4 sessions, I felt like I was in constant communication with Lindsay and she genuinely cared about my progress. She frequently sent email updates and checked in, and when I had questions, she was never more than a text away. I am excited to see continued progress. I would recommend Lindsay to anyone!

    If you don't ever have to change an appointment or there are no issues with your prescription it's…read morefine. Their front staff are horrible. No one ever picks up the phone. You can leave messages for days with no response. Even if you do manage to talk to someone if you need to talk to the provider or nutritionist, messages never get to them or your problem never gets resolved. My provider who I've had for the past year just up and left. No one told me no one notified me. I only found out the day of my appointment where they told me she was no longer there.

    I was referred to the Center for Metabolic Health to learn how to check my blood sugar levels at…read morehome to see if I was at risk of gestational diabetes or not. I had originally refused the glucola test for personal reasons so this was the best choice for me plus it came with nutritional counseling so I thought it would be a great learning experience overall. Here's the good: + I don't have gestational diabetes! + I learned a lot about myself and the way that I consume food on a daily basis. Plus picked up some nice tricks on how to lower your blood sugar level. Here's the bad: + They made a mistake in scheduling so I totally skipped the personalized initial consultation which was fine because I got a lot information in the group class. That being said during our follow up meeting, the counselor had NO IDEA about my past history which made me feel like I was just a number in their book. + The counselor gave me the wrong blood sugar goal numbers so there was some initial confusion when I reported the numbers to my OB-GYN. + Group nutritional counseling seemed a bit outdated and focused on eating a ton of carbs. I wish there was more of a focus on eating real, whole foods instead. I am glad to have received the information and support that I received but I think this place needs a lot of internal improvement to truly help others.

    I've been going to integrative/holistic medicine practitioners for years. However, I've been unable…read moreto find the right balance of western medicine practices (blood work, hormone awareness, allergy testing) mixed with eastern medicine practices (acupuncture, herbs, supplements). I can now confidently say after a couple months of coming to Nava, they hit all of those targets. I've been doing vitamin shots per my blood work results and have been feeling my natural energy returning. Today, I had my first acupuncture appointment with Julie, the doctor of Chinese medicine. She was so knowledgeable, gentle, and caring in her approach. I left feeling at ease, rested, and understood. I'm also in the midst of a gut health restore program at the clinic and I'm looking forward to seeing how my health continues to improve as I take supplements and probiotics to help my gut permeability issues. I also love that my insurance covers a lot of the medical visits and I can use my membership credits for holistic and self care appointments every month. Very grateful I found this clinic when I did!

    NAVA does not operate like a healthcare provider -- it operates like a billing system. I completed…read moremy required blood work and was told my prescription would be sent in. After two weeks of repeated confirmations, I was suddenly told I was "missing labs" -- with no proactive communication and no urgency. I then requested a temporary emergency refill to ensure my health and hormone levels did not drop while they sorted out their internal issue. They refused. No doctor review. No patient-care escalation. No concern for continuity of care. Just a denial. Healthcare, especially hormone and wellness care, is not something you can pause without real physical consequences. A legitimate medical practice understands this. NAVA does not. If you are looking for a clinic that treats you like a person rather than an account number, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere. This experience was expensive, stressful, and completely avoidable.

This company is so knowledgeable and performance driven as it relates to diverse understanding and suitability for ensuring your needs with training is tailored to your age, performance, correct posture and stance while working out and most of all; the need to make sure all questions are answered with efficiency and proficiency. I have traveled all over the world and have engaged a plethora of trainers and coaches and I have not met a corporation who speaks and walks to the same rhythm; meaning many members but one body who's business practices yield exceptional customer service across the board, with yielding great results and a peace of mind for measurable outcomes. So please understand; if your not serious about commitment and working hard to obtain your goals, this company isn't for you but if you want results with trainers like Richard and Elin, this is the absolute best decision and investment for you health, wealth and peace of mind. I love these guys and I am trully grateful to God and to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for positioning me to find this company. THIER TIRELESS, UNYIELDING, SELFLESS AND EXEMPLARY PROFESSIONAL EFFORTS ARE GENUINELY APPRECIATED TO THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND HEALTH AND WELLNESS, SO THANKS ELIN AND RICHARD FOR A JOB WELL DONE WITH ME Best Regards Stone

He is committed to positive encouragement and takes great pleasure in seeing his clients progress. Elin is an exceptional listener - he takes time to understand each client's fitness goals and keeps detailed notes. He customizes a program that fits each client's needs and abilities. I am not a fitness fanatic and have rarely spent time in a gym, but Elin makes it all seem accessible. He is also a wonderful communicator - he stays in touch and nudges me back to the gym when needed, without being pushy. Most significantly, I have seen good results with Elin's help - I have lost 25 pounds and counting, and I am gaining strength and muscle definition. Elin is always in a good mood and cares about his clients. He accommodates my often-challenging work schedule. I appreciate Elin's excellence, professionalism and expertise, and I am pleased to give Elin Fitness Redefined my highest recommendation.
