What is Nutritional Therapy?

 

Nutritional Therapy focuses on using nutrition to support health, performance, and individual care. Urszula Lipińska Nutrition applies this science to help individuals address nutritional imbalances that may affect their health and wellbeing. Nutritional therapy can be helpful for people with chronic conditions, as well as those wanting to improve their overall health and vitality.

How does it work? At Urszula Lipińska Nutrition, each person is treated as unique. A personalized nutrition and lifestyle plan is created based on individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. Urszula identifies nutritional imbalances that might be contributing to symptoms or health concerns and works with clients to restore balance and support the body’s natural ability to maintain health.

Part of Your Healthcare Team Nutritional therapy complements medical care and never replaces it. If any ‘red flag’ symptoms appear, Urszula will refer you to a medical professional and can collaborate with other healthcare providers involved in your care to ensure a well-rounded approach.
