Personalized Nutrition & Wellness

BY JOLENE BURCH, MOT. OTR/L, CNS candidate


I believe that wellness is an ever-changing and evolving state of one’s being that presents dynamically based on personal values, goals, health variables, influences, and life experiences. I strive to be as intentional, individualized, and client-centered with my consulting approach as possible. Having a background as a healthcare provider (OT), I have seen and experienced several gaps in care, and understand the importance of quality over quantity of services, client education, and informed choice with evidence-based research as the backbone. Not all diets, medications, supplements, and approaches are created equal, nor do individuals respond the same way to them. Underlying causes for symptoms should be further explored, not ignored or "band-aided." Symptoms are an innate, intelligent form of communication within the human body. A more comprehensive approach is needed, and I believe that starts with personalized nutrition. I hope to support you on your unique journey toward your vision of wellness.
Take care,
Jolene Burch

New Client Special
The initial cost for new clients is only $9 for your first 15 minute consult. After booking a virtual appointment, you will receive a few questionnaires to fill out (approx. 30 minutes of your time) that will help us pin point specific areas to prioritize our discussion together. If you decide to pursue personalized nutrition services with me, a non-refundable $20 deposit will be required to receive a specific plan with actionable next steps including any recommended labs to obtain.
See Labs & Research or FAQ section for more details.

FAQ's

What is Personalized nutrition?
It is “a holistic approach to develop individualized, actionable dietary recommendations for what, when, why, and how to eat to optimize health and quality of life.” - Dr. Christopher Lynch. It incorporates a combination of "omics" (i.e., genomics, metabolomics) to thoroughly assess how environmental factors and nutrients interact with a person's unique DNA, microbiome, and body biochemistry.

How are labs ordered and kept affordable without a referring PCP or insurance?
There are several ways that people can request their own lab tests online and pay privately, however these approaches are typically very costly and can be confusing or misinterpreted without proper analysis and guidance. I consult with a licensed medical doctor whom signs off on all labs and analyzes them before providing me with a detailed report to share with you. All information discussed and shared occurs via secure portals that are completely confidential and HIPAA compliant.
What labs do you require and what are my options?
The minimum bloodwork needed is $99 including $7 blood draw and 3% merchant processing fees (charged by the lab); you can use a FSA/HSA card if desired. Any additional specialty tests are optional but may be highly recommended to obtain more data to make more personalized recommendations. See labs & research section for more information. Many find this cost to be comparable to their contracted coinsurance or deductible rates via insurance, or even less. I provide you with the CPT codes so you can check your responsibility with your insurance company if you want to proceed with that route through your primary healthcare provider. Certainly, I want you to choose the most cost effective option for you. Please be aware that healthcare providers will bill insurance for an encounter visit (i.e., copay) in addition to the lab billing separately for tests performed. Also, you may have to wait weeks or even months to get a well visit or annual exam appointment with your provider, where as I can request lab work following our initial virtual consultation.

How does the lab process work?
Once you pay for the labs, you will receive a signed test requisition form to bring to your local LabCorp blood draw center. It is recommended that you make an appointment ahead of time with LabCorp on their website to avoid long wait times. Once labs are fully processed, you will receive an email notification to book your follow-up consult appointment with me which is when lab reports will be shared with you. Some tests occur in the form of a test kit which will be shipped to you along with detailed collection instructions. In the event that blood needs to be drawn, a list of local phlebotomists can be provided to you. Most kits require blood spot (via finger prick), saliva, urine, or stool, which is easy to do at home without another professional.

How do I obtain and provide you with a DNA file for analysis?
You may order a basic test kit from 23andme or ancestry.com. Once you receive your results, there is a process to download your raw DNA file. If you already have completed a DNA test, please inquire within and I can guide you appropriately on how to obtain your file. Your raw data file is never shared with anyone but is analyzed using a secure software called Opmus23 Pro designed by Dr. Peter D'Adamo, a naturopathic physician. In 1996, Dr. D'Adamo wrote the NY Times Bestseller 'Eat Right For Your Type'. In 2001, Dr. D'Adamo founded the Institute for Human Individuality (IfHI).

Will you collaborate with my healthcare providers?
If clients make this request and sign a release with permission to communicate, I am more than happy to connect with any specified healthcare provider. Nutrition should be complementary and is best utilized alongside both allopathic and alternative medicine approaches. Most common interactions with healthcare providers are between 5-15 minutes and are billed at a flat rate of $20. Interactions 16+ minutes are billed at $1.25 per minute and can be capped at a maximum duration per a client's request; interactions under 5 minutes, such as providing a visit note summary on letterhead or sending an email, leaving a voicemail, and/or forwarding reports/labs are included in subscription plans, or are $7 per interaction for non-members.

What does your wellness support include?
This is personalized based on your unique Wellness Wheel. This is a strength-based model to build on your current daily habits and routines while shaping new ones. Together, we will identify which domain(s) of wellness you'd like to prioritize: emotional, intellectual, physical, financial, spiritual, social, occupational and environmental. I support you by identifying resources that can help you reach your set goals. This may include lifestyle/diet modifications such as a meal plan, recipes, and/or targeted nutrition recommendations; a suggested list of materials or tools to improve identified wellness domain; accountability support; and specific research or referrals when requested.

What discount will I receive on your dispensary portal as a subscribed member?
Plant- every order placed receives a 15% discount, or $15 savings for every $100 spent! You only get access to products recommended to you and those showcased on my store front page.
Sprout: every order placed receives a 20% discount, or $20 savings for every $100 spent! You get access to all products available on Fullscript.
