Nutritional Counselling, Health & Wellness Practices. Feel Better!
About Me
Yes, my name really is Romaine... just like the lettuce! It's made for some fun teasing over my lifetime, but here I am, a Holistic Nutritionist with a namesake veggie! Joking aside, my inspiration comes from all those who are making changes to improve their health and wellbeing, through nutrition and effective wellness practices! I love to talk about reducing inflammation, gut health, women's health and stress management. You can do it! What I advocate for are simple, effective and sustainable holistic solutions. Having grown up with amazing holistic influences and helping myself through a serious health crisis, I just thought we all knew how to do this! When I began helping others navigate the world of nutrition and wellness over 12 years ago, I came to realize that there is a lot of confusion about the information available to us. Sometimes we need a little help sorting it all out and sometimes we just need to start somewhere. This is where I can help! Let's discover the unique keys to your health and wellbeing, in order to support a healthy, joyous and vibrant life!
Inflammation
At the root of most health issues is inflammation...chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation can contribute to some of the following symptoms:
- fatigue
- headache & brain fog
- digestive disturbance
- psoriasis, eczema, acne
- joint pain, swelling
- disturbed sleep
- hormonal imbalance
- anxiety & depression
- chronic illness
Gut Health
Digestive health is absolutely critical in addressing good health and wellbeing. Your unique microbiome drives "the ship" so to speak, affecting every system in the body, including mental
health. Common symptoms of gut imbalance include:
- heartburn
- gas & bloating
- irritable bowel syndrome
- constipation or diarrhea
- sleep issues
- skin rashes, eczema, psoriasis, acne
- allergies & food sensitivities
- sugar cravings
- hormonal imbalance
- mood imbalance, including anxiety & depression
Women's Health
Navigating hormonal and menopausal health symptom free is ideal, however many of us experience some of the following common symptoms:
- changes in mood
- hot flashes & night sweats
- weight gain
- disturbed sleep
- skin issues
- feelings of loss of self
- anxiety & depression
- hair loss
Stress Management
Stress is a reality of life! It becomes a problem when we can no longer manage the chronic stressors in our life in effective and productive ways. Symptoms of
chronic stress include:
- mood changes
- disturbed sleep
- weight gain around the middle
- skin issues
- digestive upset
- anxiety & depression
- hair loss
- brain changes
- lack of energy & focus
- adrenal fatigue

Kind Words...
"My gut issues have disappeared, thanks to you!" J.D
"Romaine has helped me with various health concerns over the years, and I have taken her suggestions and used them, with success. Romaine has the unique ability to listen, observe, and, using her research and desire to help, make suggestions. She takes the time to explain why the body is doing what it is doing, how to change it and then stop it from reoccurring. This comes from her passion for living a healthy lifestyle and for helping others to do the same. Romaine has gone to the extent of drawing up a meal plan (I knew I needed to eliminate some foods, but didn't know where to begin) and she included recipes for each of the items on the plan. She is always available for consultations and stays updated on how I am improving. I was a runner for 15 years; I didn't need help... I thought I was in great health. Now I turn to Romaine for advice, I trust what she tells me, she has never let me down. Thank you, Romaine." Ellen E.
"Through listening to my challenges, Romaine was able to help me reduce inflammation in my body. I started to feel better and sleep better! She gave me suggestions and a plan to make good choices for my health. I go to her when I have any questions and she always offers great advice that works." Susan K.
