Move to Heal - Services

Nutrition

How it benefits you:

Proper nutrition is a foundation of good health, which is why we offer free nutritional counseling. Nutrition can be especially important during recovery to help keep blood sugars stable and reduce cravings, to improve and stabilize mood, and to replenish nutritional deficiencies that may have occurred during substance use.
‍
Our mission is to help individuals recognize the importance of nutrition during recovery, develop and maintain a healthy relationship with food, and to feel empowered with the skills and knowledge to make positive nutrition choices.

HOW WE WORK

WE TAKE YOU STEP BY STEP

We offer 1:1 nutrition coaching with our nutrition coach in order to address individual concerns regarding food or nutrition.

For those that like to cook, we have carefully curated recipes that nourish and fuel your body properly.
