Nutrition and lifestyle play a big part of the underlying causes of hair loss and scalp issues. Research has shown how nutrient deficiencies and or toxic levels of certain nutrients, such as vitamins A & D, omegas, and proteins, can compromise the structure and growth of the hair. Research now has also acknowledged the importance of gut health and its connection to the immune system, brain, nervous system, and immune system. Inflammation, whether it be in our joints, scalp, or hair follicle, stems from our gut health as well. Would you believe pityriasis (dandruff), psoriasis, and seborrheic dermatitis are also connected to gut health? Research has also shown this to be true. It is my belief that in addition to external factors lifestyle, diet, nutrient intake, and gut health needs to be addressed as well in order to achieve the best hair regrowth results possible.
I have a BS in Natural Health and a Certificate in Nutritional Coaching from Kingdom College of Natural Health. I am able to work with my clients to improve their lifestyle and diet, to correct nutrient deficiencies and create optimal levels, and customize a homeopathic program to improve and strengthen whole body health, which will lead to improved hair health.

UCARI Human Intolerance Test Kit $119 (Available at my clinic)
UCARI’s intolerance tests are carried out using bioresonance technology and is categorized under Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAMs). A machine captures the electromagnetic signals present in your hair sample and compares them against an extensive database of stored frequencies for over 1,500 items you may eat, breathe, or come in contact with. When outside frequencies interrupt the body’s natural communication system, the result can show up as intolerance symptoms – digestive discomfort, skin reactions, fatigue, headaches, brain fog, and more.
