*"When I first started this program, I was miserable. I had constant nausea, stomach pain, and nothing sounded good to eat. On top of that, I’d gained a lot of weight and my anxiety was through the roof.

Fast forward just 2.5 months, and I feel like a completely different person! I’ve lost 50 pounds, my nausea and stomach pain are completely gone, and food finally sounds good again. The biggest surprise? My anxiety is 95% better. I didn’t realize how connected everything was until now.

This program didn’t just help my gut — it gave me my life back."* Melissa T.

We Help Get to the Root Cause of Weight Loss Resistance and Gut Issues through testing, lifestyle changes, supplementation, and a nutritional plan.

When nothing works and you start to blame yourself...
But it’s not you—it’s your biology. Eating less. Exercising more. Cutting out foods. Adding supplements. Still bloated. Still inflamed. Still gaining. Gut imbalances, hormone shifts, and toxic overload can sabotage your results no matter how “clean” you eat. We have to look below the surface. I help uncover the hidden imbalances that block progress, this call is the first step.

This will be your time to let Darci know your health concerns and together we can decide if we are a good fit for you.

What We Offer

Functional Medicine Approach

Comprehensive

Expert Guidance

We focus on the root cause, not just symptoms.

Addressing internal and external factors.

Promote long term sustainable lifestyle changes to delay disease for as long as possible.

We’ve helped countless individuals over the past 20 years overcome stubborn weight loss resistance, improve digestion, and feel like themselves again. From severe anxiety and immune challenges to chronic pain, bloating, and bathroom struggles—our personalized approach using functional nutrition, targeted supplementation, and realistic lifestyle strategies has helped people reclaim their energy, confidence, and freedom. It’s about lasting results, rooted in uncovering and addressing the real root causes.

Why It Matters

The phrase “garbage in, garbage out” guides our mission. Toxins from chemicals, pesticides, candida, parasites, and mold in our diet or environment fuel inflammation—the root of disease and weight gain.

Our Approach

Referencing cutting-edge nutritional research and proven methods we address root causes while crafting your nutrition plan for lasting wellness.

Nourishing Ways Center Three Step Process to Personalized Wellness

DISCOVER

It all starts with a friendly Discovery Call. This is where you get to share your story, your goals, and what you’ve been feeling. I’ll listen closely and start to connect the dots — so we can begin to understand what your body is trying to tell us.

UNCOVER

Next, we move into your Functional Medicine Assessment and, if needed, advanced lab testing. This is where we dig a little deeper to uncover what’s really going on beneath the surface — things like inflammation, nutrient imbalances, or stress patterns that may be affecting your health.

NOURISH

Once your results are in, we’ll meet for your Lab Findings Visit. Together, we’ll go over your results, create a personalized nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle plan that truly fits your life. You’ll leave with clear steps to help you feel your best. We will be peeling back the onion layers throughout this process.
