Discovery Vitality
Nutritional Assessment
A Discovery Vitality Nutritional Assessment includes a 30min consult.
In this consult I measure your body stats, look at how you are currently eating and give you dietary advice accordingly to any medical conditions you may have. You will receive 1000 vitality points.
Please Note: A Vitality Nutritional Assessment does NOT include an eating plan. However; if you would like me to include one I would be happy to do so.
Genetic Testing
I am so excited to be now be able to offer genetic testing to my clients in my rooms.
The cost is R4400 which includes 82 different genes. It’s a really quick and easy process (all i need is a saliva swab from you). After 2 weeks you will receive your genetic report which I’ll then go through with you.
Corporate Wellness
I am passionate about corporate wellness.
If you would like the services of a dietitian at your Corporate Wellness days to give dietary advice to employees or would like me to do in-house counseling please give me a shout. Alternatively, if your employees are on Vitality with Discovery I can come and do in-house Vitality Nutritional Assessments.
I also offer talks on Healthy Eating and run ‘Biggest Loser’ competitions within companies. This is a great way of bringing an awareness about health and wellness into your company.
School Shows
Dee Fleuriot (a professional actress) and myself have put together a fun interactive school show on healthy eating that children love.
The show is aimed at Pre-primary and Junior primary scholars. If you would like our show to come to your school, please dont hesitate to contact us and we will email you our price list.
Author
Over the last few years I’ve written a series of Children’s Nutritional Story Books in order to educate children about healthy eating.
