Care Approach
Who is this for?
Anyone who is pregnancy or planning on becoming pregnant who:
Wants nutritional/nutrient counselling during the childbearing year for general knowledge and to lower their risk for complications. Or even those who want to know how to potentially help their labours.
Has chronic or autoimmune conditions and desires to know more about their condition and how to decrease symptoms using nutrition and lifestyle. Beyond wanting to treat their condition, they may be curious about what triggered it in the first place (e.g. includes Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, rheumatoid arthritis, IBS, gestational diabetes, metabolic syndrome, poor nutritional status, obesity).
Is interested in extra nutritional and lifestyle support for common pregnancy concerns including but not limited to gestational diabetes, anemia, and nausea.
Is eligible for ASA in pregnancy and are interested in how they can (in conjunction with taking ASA) use nutrition and lifestyle to decrease inflammation.
Is suffering from depression or anxiety and would like to explore the nutritional and lifestyle supports that improve, exacerbate and trigger their symptoms.
What does the process look like?
Artemis will provide…
Initial consultation online or in person to assess your unique physiological needs.
We do a thorough intake to discover what makes you unique.
Physiological marker analysis via blood work
Reference ranges on blood work results are designed to show when there is overt disease. In functional medicine, we use reference ranges that help determine when there may be underlying imbalances or inflammation. In this way we can help prevent overt disease.
Nutritional, nutrient and lifestyle recommendations
Recommendations will be personalised based on your individual needs
