I sought out help because I felt like my regular doctor wanted me to take medicine to fix my ailments. I knew I needed help to figure out what was causing me to have my symptoms. I have liked the notes and instructions given after each session. It has been helpful to print out and review. I like that I had a food plan and a supplement plan. Those were two things I had struggled to implement myself. I have lost several pounds, but I have also felt better. My stomach no longer bloats after eating at the end of the day. I used to have to take tums every night because I had so much acid reflux. I have more energy to exercise. I’d recommend anyone looking for answers without medication. I think you have a passion for what you are doing and you live the lifestyle that you are promoting.

My biggest hesitation was that the experience would be like what I had tried previously. I am so glad that I chose VivaWise because they actually addressed the root of my symptoms and communicated with me regularly. I had a detailed and organized plan for my nutrition, supplements and overall wellness to address my goals. With VivaWise, I didn’t feel like I had to be strict in order to be healthy. I feel much more knowledgeable on how to plan meals with certain ingredients and what to look for in products. I was provided with a maintenance plan going forward and I feel more independent and in control of my gut. My symptoms questionnaire that I filled out at the beginning improved from 72 points to 23 points at the end of our sessions. I have significantly less bloating, more energy, and more restful sleep. I used to take Ibuprofen regularly for headaches, but now, I only need medication occasionally. People who have struggled with gut and allergy issues their whole life will benefit greatly from VivaWise.

I was worried about scheduling issues and concerned that I wouldn’t be able to stick to major life changes. Fortunately, I didn’t feel ashamed at all if I wasn’t perfectly sticking to the plan. The handouts and visit notes are easy to reference between sessions. I also like using the lab work to reinforce how my health has improved with the lifestyle changes. My mindset is definitely more positive. I am able to handle challenges better. I am more engaged with my family because I am more mentally present. My energy levels are MUCH better. I feel like a new person. No doctor would have been able to give me the improvements that I’ve had from working with you guys or would have even batted an eye at my bloodwork. Allopathic medicine is meant to treat illness, not optimize health.

Working with Katie helped me to see there is more than one way to look at health and wellness. Katie is kind-hearted and so in-tune with how her plan can help others. She genuinely wants to help you reach your health goals. I have more energy and less allergies after having worked with Katie. She understands health and can create a plan for anyone.

I liked how she was very thorough with the things we needed to do and at the follow-up she asked a lot of questions to see what was working and what wasn’t. I also liked how we had access to a lot of articles and information on all the things we talked about. My daughter’s hair is growing back and she is also learning about the right way to eat and what works for her health. She has learned that it is important to pay attention to how she’s eating and also how to manage stress.

I had already been to 15 other doctors and medical professionals only to have found some pieces of the puzzle. So, I had my doubts that anyone would be able to help me. Lauren was amazing and wasn’t pushy. Prior to working with Lauren, I was made to believe it was all or nothing and it had to be very strict. Yet she knew exactly what to do for me and was very patient with me. I like the holistic approach that is backed by scientific research. My gut health and anxiety have significantly improved. I am able to do more now than I have in years. My brain fog is almost gone, I can actually think clearly and form a sentence without getting frustrated. My mood is so much better. My thyroid antibodies have also significantly improved and my inflammation continues to get lower each month.

She helped me understand certain foods and food combinations that give health benefits! My anxiety has lessened tremendously! Once I was eating certain foods and taking supplements I noticed a change. My anxiety doesn’t come as often. I’ve lost weight which was my main goal. I feel better in my skin. My blood results 3 months later had improved my cholesterol, omega 3, etc. Believe in the process because it works!

I thought it was just going to be a lot of the same advice that’s flooding the internet. Lauren ‘s knowledge was way beyond all of that. I felt like I was getting the help I needed the very first session. My weight is down. I have more energy. My A1C is at 5.7 instead of 7.2. I feel like I’m getting healthier. Anyone that is type 2 diabetic or struggles with metabolic syndrome should see her, or anyone that cannot figure out what the underlying root cause is for their bad health.

I felt like my issue was “small” and didn’t really warrant an overall health assessment. However, the changes we discussed positively impacted other things I wasn’t necessarily looking at like my sleep and energy levels. Immediately I noticed improved stomach pains based on quick identification of the issue and supplements/diet change.

I was worried that the experience would be more new age or that it would involve strange, unconventional practices. But you all are super down to earth and helpful. I’ve been searching for an answer to my stomach issues for years and years. Who knew the fix was so simple and I don’t have to be on medication my whole life! I am amazed by how helpful you have been and a little ashamed that I was so hesitant. My whole life has changed for the better. I no longer suffer from chronic pain, bloating, tiredness, and generally feeling horrible all the time. I sleep so well, I don’t have to stress about food, it’s relatively simple to lose weight for the first time in my life. My mood is always great, my energy is the best it’s ever been, and I am just so thankful! I definitely recommend anyone suffering from inflammation of any kind to see you all.
