The Functional Approach
Nutrition alone often focuses on food. Functional nutrition focuses on the whole person. Not just food, but what our bodies can do with that food. How our bodies can and should be functioning on that food. Nutrition is important but our sleep, our elimination patterns, as well as our lifestyle is equally important. To practice functionally, is to know that everything is connected. Our bodies work as one whole unit. If one area is suffering, the whole body is affected in some way or another. Finding true health and wellness can only come from understanding the function of the entire body, mind and spirit.

Meet Brittani
Hi friends! Welcome to my page. I am so happy you are here! Let me tell you a little bit about myself.
I grew up in small-town Wisconsin, married my middle-school sweetheart and we now have three beautiful little boys.
I received a bachelors degree in psychology but needed something more. I decided to attend nursing school and it was the best decision I ever made. I loved the field of nursing. Every day was challenging, rewarding, busy and full of ups and downs. It was my kind of work. Then the world of healthcare changed. At the same time, my knowledge of health and what it truly meant was growing and evolving. I discovered functional medicine, then functional nutrition. I read everything I could get my hands on. My passion for the functional world grew and I decided to take a leap of faith. With my husband’s support, I received a certification in Functional Nutrition Counseling and started my own practice. Now, here I am, no longer at the bedside of my sick patients but instead hoping to prevent those patients from ever getting to that bed. I have a deep passion for teaching others what it means to truly be well and more importantly, how to get there. I hope you will keep reading to find out if this is the right path for you and I look forward to working with you on your own personal journey and to helping your body function the way God intended.
