RNC Restorative Health Program

After years of successfully helping people to restore their health, I have developed the RNC Restorative Health Program which takes all the elements and components that I have provided clients success in their journey into a cost-effective 10-week program.

The RNC Restorative Health Program comes from a foundation of many years of nursing and observing patterns of health decline, along with my continuing education from Harvard Medical School and Cornell University. I also use the framework from the Functional Medicine Paradigm which means to treat the upstream cause of disease in contrast to our current western medicine paradigm which is to treat the symptoms of disease). And just as importantly, I use the experience of my own personal health journey as I have personally struggled with my own health issues and am grateful for the opportunity to have learned factual information to guide me through my own amazing health journey that I continue each day. 

Every person is unique in their experience and knowledge and I collaborate with you at your individual starting point. There currently exists a plethora of overwhelming, dogmatic, and conflicting information from a variety of sources.  I simply teach you how our bodies respond and adapt to an internal and external stimulus on a human biological cellular level so that you can understand and make informed choices about your health and implement changes for yourself accordingly. Instead of dogmatic and directive prescriptions, you will understand the biological pathways involved in your body's responses that either result in health or disease. 

Diseases such as dementia, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease, anxiety, depression, erectile dysfunction, PCOS, fibromyalgia do not just show up one day. Conditions such as obesity and chronic pain also do not just "show up" one day.  Rather, these diseases and conditions simmer and grow under the surface for years and decades before our bodies can no longer metabolically compensate and then the symptoms of these diseases and conditions rear their ugly heads. 

Once we learn how to TREAT the upstream cause of diseases we can significantly decrease the risk of ACQUIRING any of these diseases.  Improving health does NOT involve using a scale to measure weight, nor does it involve counting calories; these archaic practices continue to be pushed and result in failure nearly every time.  Rather, The RNC Restorative Health Program successfully empowers and facilitates knowledge to teach "why" our body historically responds the way it does and how to change this response in a sustainable way to restore our health.  Once a consistent pattern of changing the stimuli is developed, fat loss becomes a side effect! Better sleep becomes a side effect! Stronger bodies become a side effect! AND, potential reversal of chronic diseases also becomes a side effect!  After collaborating with my clients, they have consistently reacted by stating: "how has nobody told us this before?"

A couple of examples I would like to share is that we all know people who have ended up in "old folks homes" because they can no longer either think (which is dementia) or nor longer have the ability to move (meaning that they can no longer get out of a chair by themselves). Unfortunately, these people are MY parents and they were unsafe to remain at home because of this. This circumstance is devasting to the people experiencing these conditions and also for the people who love them.  Both Alzheimer's and frailty are highly preventable and the time to start preventing these diseases and conditions is now, instead of when symptoms and deconditioning have already developed. There is no cure or treatment for ALzheimer's. The medications that claim to slow the progression do not work and the messaging around the diagnosis of Alzhiemer's is to: "get your affairs in order and good luck".  This is the reality and I have personally experienced this. 

​

The RNC Restorative Health Program is a 10-week program designed from the best evidence-based quality components from Harvard Medical School, Cornell University, and the Functional Medicine Paradigm.  Based on your goals, health history and assessment findings, unique and collaborative planning is developed with you based on the best quality evidence-based practice to maximize the best health outcomes for you. The design of a ten-week program was strategically developed to support you through sustainability of a new health-driven way of being.

​

The RNC Restorative Health Program includes an extensive and thorough health history intake assessment that provides your important unique baseline information.  I review and consolidate this information prior to commencing the program. The first session is very extensive, filled with personalized 1 : 1 90-minute individualized dialogue and teaching with you. Follow-up sessions are weekly and new foundations are discussed at each subsequent session for implementation according to identified gaps and your goals for restorative health.  You have access to email me for any support of the previous weeks' content and I respond within 48 hours. By the end of week 10, clients consistently and successfully feel fulfilled with factual and adaptable knowledge to make informed choices to restore their health, and are well supported along the way. 

​

The RNC Restorative Health Program cost is $699 for the ten-week program which is equivalent to $9.99 per day over 10 weeks.  Becoming a client of RN Collaborate also enables free access to me for primary health care services, including assessment and treatment of acute infections (such as throat infections, eye infections, ear infections, skin infections, UTIs, STIs, contraception management, and more).

People who are using GLP-1 Agonists (Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy).

These medications are an excellent tool to help people with weight loss but unfortunately they are prescribed without teaching on how to maintain the weight loss.  Numerous research studies are now revealing that people do lose weight from eating less but the weight loss is not sustained. This is because the weight loss is a combination of both fat and muscle.  Loss of muscle is detrimental to both healthy metabolism and functional mobility. People plateau from weight loss because internal metabolism has a new set point (which is now decreased), which prevents further weight loss.  Without proper teaching about optimizing all ways for continued success on GLP-1 Agonists, people are regaining the weight, but replacing the weight in the form of fat only,  and not muscle. This results in a new set point for decreased metabolism resulting in worse health and increased weight compared to when they started on the GLP-1 Agonist.  RN Collaborate is now working with clients who are using GLP-1 agonists to ensure sustainable and healthy weight loss.
