Let's work together

You don’t have to live with GI issues

Using the GI-MAP™ test and a tailored protocol, together we can heal your gut. A healthy gut leads to better sleep, more energy, balanced hormones, better nutrient absorption, and will help you look, feel, and perform your best.

What is a GI-MAP™?

The GI Microbial Assay Plus (or GI-MAP™) test is a DNA-based stool test that provides a detailed analysis of your gut microbiome. This test analyzes the levels of both good and bad bacteria, parasites, viruses, worms, and fungi, as well as immune and digestive markers in your gut. This “map” allows us to tailor a program that will help restore balance to the biome of your gut improving your digestion, mood, immunity, and overall body function.

There is so much hope and relief in store for you as you pursue healing through the GI Map test and our customized protocols. When root cause issues are addressed, symptoms disappear and your health improves from the inside out! Let’s get you feeling good!

You’re in the right place if ...

  • ✓ You have persistent symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, gas, bloating, food sensitivities, headaches ...
  • ✓ You have a pantry full of supplements, but have no idea if they are actually working for you.
  • ✓ You’ve been searching for solutions on your own or with your doctor, but nothing seems to work.
  • ✓ You’ve tried everything from diets to detoxes, to try to look and feel your best, but you’re not there yet.
Do any of those sound like you?

Working Together

You get a team!

I partner with a fantastic team of healthcare providers, and together we create your healing protocol based on your GI MAP results. While you have a team creating your protocol, I will go over your results, explain your protocol, and support you during your gut healing process - all done virtually, of course!

Courtney Bell

Registered Nurse
I know what it’s like to not feel good day in and day out, to struggle with chronic fatigue and poor quality sleep. I know how it feels to battle mood swings and have skin issues. I also know the pain of years of infertility. These were all things I fought every single day for far too long. GI Mapping helped me heal and optimize my gut, which in turn helped to balance my hormones, improve my digestion, increase absorption of critical nutrients, made my skin glow, gave me more energy, and ultimately played a part in helping me have a successful pregnancy and healthy baby girl!

Having worked in the ICU as a nurse for the last decade, I found myself frustrated and feeling like I wasn't helping people get healthier. We were treating symptoms, not root causes. Now I help people heal from the inside out and there's no going back for me!

Instead of just managing your symptoms, we use the GI-MAP™ test to find and address the root-cause.

symptoms that can be addressed ...
bloating, gas, constipation
fatigue,  brain fog
weight management, diabetes
anxiety, depression, mood
food sensitivities
auto immune disorders
skin problems, like acne and psoriasis
digestive complaints, diarrhea or constipation
IBS/IBD
hormonal imbalances
chronic illness
hair loss

Once we establish the root cause of your symptoms we can work to re-establish your gut health naturally.

Diet & Lifestyle Changes

Considering your unique stressors, we create a plan to rebalance your diet & lifestyle.

Creating your Custom Protocol

Here’s how we’ll heal your gut ...

Remove

Remove any pathogens

We work with natural herbs and oils to remove any symptom-causing pathogen. We also remove any foods or medications that may be disrupting gut health (this is always done in conjunction with your physician)⁠.

Replace

replacing missing elements

We support proper digestion during the protocol by replacing levels of enzymes or bacteria that may be missing⁠. This also typically includes replacing with supplements that support healing, reduction of inflammation and boost immunity.

Reinoculate

probiotics & prebiotics

We repopulate the gut with healthy bacteria by using the appropriate probiotics and prebiotics to make the gut health flourish and improve digestion. ⁠

Repair

long-term gut healing

At this stage, we want to create an environment that supports gut-healing and long-term relief. Often times we have to repair the gut lining and the intestinal wall by using special tools. This means cellular repair within the gut wall and introducing key nutrients that improve the immune system of the gut.

Rebalance

manage stress, rest, sleep, exercise

A huge part of my protocols includes diet, stress management, sleep, and exercise suggestions to help the body heal as a whole. We know that gut health is affected intensely by stress alone. The personalized protocol I create for you takes your unique stressors into account and we create a plan to rebalance your lifestyle so you can prevent further GI dysfunction. ⁠

FAQ

Common Questions

What to expect

I

Complete a Questionnaire

To be the most effective, I want to learn a little more about your health history and current lifestyle. I also want to know about your wellness goals so they can be addressed as I put together your 90-day protocol. The questionnaire will be emailed to you after you have purchased your package.

2

Complete Your GI-MAP™ Test

Once you purchase your package, your collection kit will be mailed to you from Diagnostic Solutions. The test will be sent to you along with very clear instructions on how to collect your stool sample and send it back to the lab for testing.

Once you mail the test back to the lab it will take 2-3 weeks to get the results and for me to formulate your protocol.

3

Consultation

During the consultation, we will go over your test results in detail and I will explain your custom protocol based on my assessment. Your plan may include diet recommendations, probiotics, herbal supplements, and essential oils to correct the imbalances highlighted by your GI-MAP™.

4

Protocol

The protocol specifically addresses the imbalances in your gut by removing the bad pathogens, replacing them with good ones, and alleviating any inflammation or digestive problems. Many people get a 90-day recommended protocol, but depending on results, some need a 120-day protocol.

5

90-day Ongoing Support

During your 90-day protocol we will communicate by email as needed to assess your progress, address any symptoms that may arise, and make any necessary adjustments.

6

Post 90-day Protocol

I recommend re-testing after you complete your protocol to see how your test results have changed. Once I analyze the results of your second test, I can recommend a maintenance protocol. Many clients find it beneficial to complete annual or bi-annual GI mapping to stay on top of their gut health.

7

How Will You Know It’s Working?

You can expect an improvement in symptoms that you are having. Some happen faster than others. Gut healing is slow and can take up to one year to have full improvement. Most people see drastic improvement before the end of the protocol.

Does the GI-MAP™ test cover food allergies or intolerances?

The short answer is no. But, once you heal the gut, food sensitivities tend to improve.

If you know or suspect you have food sensitivities, I I can help you to get a comprehensive food sensitivity test. Knowing what food to avoid while on protocol is very supportive of gut healing.

Food Allergy & Intolerance Testing

There are several food sensitivity options (MRT, LEAP, etc) so it would be best to discuss history and symptoms together and come up with a plan that is most appropriate for you.

How Will You Know It's Working?

You can expect an improvement in symptoms that you are having. Some happen faster than others. Gut healing is slow and can take up to one year to have full improvement. Most people see drastic improvement before the end of the protocol.

Does the GI-MAP™ test cover food allergies or intolerances?

The short answer is no. But, once you heal the gut, food sensitivities tend to improve.

If after your protocol you are still experiencing symptoms, I can help you to get a comprehensive food sensitivity test through LEAP.

Food Allergy & Intolerance Testing

If at the beginning of our work together, the symptoms you're experiencing seem to be clearly related to certain foods, I can help you to acquire a comprehensive blood test to inform your protocol.
