total gut health restoration

your nervous system + your gut are always in conversation.

When that connection is disrupted, it can show up as bloating, fatigue, brain fog, or even anxiety and mood changes. Stress hormones feed gut imbalances, creating a cycle that leaves both body and mind struggling. The good news is that your gut has the ability to heal, and with the right support, balance can be restored.

your body is sending signals.
let’s find out what they mean.

Your gut and brain are deeply connected through your nervous system. That’s why stress often shows up in your stomach, and why an imbalanced gut can fuel anxiety or mood changes. When harmful bacteria or pathogens overgrow, they thrive on stress hormones and create further imbalance (dysbiosis). Healing your gut helps regulate this cycle, supporting not only digestion, but also mood, energy, and hormone balance.

By combining testing, lifestyle adjustments, and coping tools, we’ll help your body return to and restore a rest-and-digest state, allowing true healing to begin.

food sensitivity

The GI-MAP is a functional lab test that uses a simple, at-home stool sample to measure microbial balance, immune health, and digestive markers. It’s designed to detect microbes and imbalances that can contribute to inflammation, poor absorption, and immune dysfunction. With its advanced accuracy, the GI-MAP helps us identify the root cause of your digestive issues so we can create a plan that truly restores balance.

Alongside GI-MAP testing, we can assess your food sensitivities, which often impact both gut and mental health. Research shows food sensitivities may contribute to anxiety, depression, and even ADHD symptoms. By identifying which foods are triggering your system, we can temporarily eliminate them, focus on repairing your gut, and then slowly reintroduce foods to build a personalized, sustainable plan that supports long-term wellness.
