The mind and body are tethered. That means some of the barriers to mental wellness exist physically within yourself, which is why we take a whole-body approach.
Your mental health and wellness depend on much more than what’s above your shoulders. In fact, more and more research continues to prove that mental health and physical health are fundamentally tied together.
With that fact in mind, we take a holistic, humanistic approach to mental wellness, which includes helping to address physical conditions that are known to negatively impact your mental health.
Nutrition and optimal brain function go hand in hand. Examining diet and nutritional predispositions, and creating a plan for improvement accordingly, are vital to improving mental health and physical wellbeing.

From high blood pressure to hypertension, cardiovascular conditions are closely tied to mental health concerns; particularly anxiety. By understanding the mental to physical connections, we can develop holistic plans that help patients achieve greater mental wellness.
Obesity, poor nutrition, and lack of physical activity are routinely connected with mental health concerns like anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders while also being the precursor to many more serious physical conditions. Addressing obesity is a key step in addressing mental health challenges patients may be facing.
Just like mental wellness, physical fitness requires ongoing maintenance. We consult with patients to develop plans that address the body and mind, ultimately working in pursuit of positive mental health outcomes.
