Find a Nutritionist or Dietitian in Oakland

I’m so grateful that I chose The Elevated Method when looking for personal training. Having a background in competition bodybuilding and long distance running I thought I knew how to get the most out of working out but using the techniques I had in the past weren’t working for me. I was stuck and frustrated. When I first talked to Rance, he recommended to stop lifting weights temporarily to avoid injury. He talked about the importance of strengthening the core, stretching for flexibility, and cardio to increase stamina before moving to the weights. So about 4 weeks ago I started training twice a week with Rance and following his recommendations for independent workouts in between. While the workouts have been primarily body weight they are so much different and anything I’ve done before and really challenge and works out all my muscles, particularly the core muscles. The progress has been amazing! Each session I can do more and my stamina has increased significantly. If you want great results without injury, I would highly recommend The Elevated Method! It’s like nothing else I’ve ever done and it is working better than anything I’ve ever done.

Could not recommend Andrea Bailey enough. I was/am dealing with IBS, and Andrea helped get me back to a healthy baseline after years of struggle. She is thorough, patient, informative and an extremely reliable problem solver. If you are ready to start healing your gut I would strongly advice you to meet with Andrea :)

Saskia has been our health partner for over ten years (probably closer to twenty) and the Emeryville Health and Wellness Center is a beautiful and calm place to partner with her with.  She keeps up to date with various health strategies including nutrition and multiple forms of massage.  This is a place to go if you want able assistance to fulfill any health related goals.  There are practioners in many other areas which could be of benefit.

Megan and I met years ago when working for a non-profit organization and even then, she was dedicated to eating organic, local, sustainable foods. I have known Megan throughout her journey to becoming a Nutritional Consultant and I can tell you this really is her passion. She is so good at what she does because she really lives and breathes her motto, and is dedicated to helping others also live their best lives.I started working with Megan as a client about 6 months ago. I had been having several symptoms - debilitating fatigue, constant stomach pain and digestion issues, diarrhea every day for over a year, issues with my complexion and just generally feeling like a shell of myself all the time. I knew I needed to repair my gut health, but after a colonoscopy and endoscopy showed no substantive results, and cutting out foods containing gluten (to my already vegetarian diet) wasn't giving me any relief, I was feeling at a loss for how to help myself. The final straw that sent me running into Megan's arms was when my nails started splitting vertically down to the cuticle and almost falling out completely. I was tired of doctors telling me my blood work and overall health was perfectly fine when clearly I was still experiencing symptoms, so I went to the expert. And let me tell you, Megan really is an expert. Healing my body with food and herbs was exactly what I needed, and I always knew that, but I could never figure out how to actually do that on my own.While my restorative journey is not complete yet, Megan has significantly improved my life. I have so much more energy and can feel my gut slowly healing itself. The most important thing she helps me realize is that this is a journey and it will take time to heal myself, so the fact that I already feel so different is such a testament to her expertise. She is such an amazing resource for those times when you just don't know whether something is actually good for your body or not. From an interpersonal perspective, Megan is the easiest to work with. She not only listens and responds, but she is so kind and fun and cool. Sometimes being healthy and changing your lifestyle and eating habits can seem really daunting, but Megan helps you see that its more than attainable, and actually makes the whole process fun and exciting.If you are having ANY health issues, whether you want to lose a few pounds or have a serious disease, I would highly recommend working with Megan - she is the best!

Val is amazing! I have known many nutritionists in the past, but have never been called to work with one before. One conversation with Val, however, and I knew she could help improve my life. Her approach is extremely thorough and begins with an incredibly detailed questionnaire and evaluation. Then she talks through some changes you can make. Finally, she provides you with a report. It covered some dietary changes and tips, changes to the types of supplements I take, and even some recipes to get me started with a healthier lifestyle.  I love the smoothy recipe she gave me, and now make that every morning instead of the pure fruit (and this high sugar) smoothie I was having. The other recipes she gave me are also wonderful. I have only been working with Val a short time, but she has already gotten me almost completely off sugar and carbs. I have also been working on improving my intestinal bacteria and combating candida overgrowth. So far I'm feeling great with the changes I've been making. Val is of the opinion that for the most part, whatever ails you, if you give the body the right nutrients, it is capable of healing itself. So whether you just want to get off sugar, or you are frustrated with suffering from ailments and symptoms you can't seem to get rid of, Val can make a difference. If you have ever wondered if improving your diet might change your life, go see Val. She will make that a reality.
