D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success
Most women who land on my doorstep aren’t new to wellness.
They’ve tried Whole30, Keto, intermittent fasting, upping protein, clean eating, maybe even celery juice. They’ve got a cabinet full of supplements, and at some point, they did feel better, but they seem to end up circling back and tell me that they “just feel stuck”.
That’s because symptom-chasing isn’t the answer. We need a framework that actually looks at the why.
That’s where the D.R.E.S.S. for Health Success® Method comes in. This is the foundational approach I use in my nutrition programs to help clients get out of survival mode and into healing mode.
What Is the D.R.E.S.S. Method?
These are the five pillars of foundational health. When one (or more) is out of balance, your body starts raising red flags like fatigue, brain fog, hormonal chaos, mystery weight gain, and skin that’s suddenly turned on you.
Diet
Rest
Exercise
Stress Reduction
Supplementation
The beauty of the D.R.E.S.S. method is that it looks at your whole system—not just one isolated issue. And when we support all five areas together, that’s when your body finally says, “thank you” and starts to recalibrate.
A Quick Look at Each Pillar
🥑 DIET
This is not a one-size-fits-all “just eat clean” approach.
We personalize your food strategy based on your metabolic type and what foods work best for you, food sensitivity testing, and how your body actually responds to different foods. That might mean finding out that “superfood” you’ve been eating every day is doing more harm than good 😳.
😴 REST
Sleep isn’t a luxury—it’s an absolute necessity.
We focus on improving sleep quality and supporting your circadian rhythm so your body can actually do what it’s supposed to be doing while you’re snoozing…healing and regenerating.
🏃♀️ EXERCISE
More movement isn’t always better.
Overtraining (or the wrong type of training for your body) can lead to more inflammation and burnout. We’ll dial in the kind of movement that works with your hormones—not against them.
😣 STRESS REDUCTION
Stress isn’t just mental—it’s physical, emotional, chemical, environmental, and even internal.
We work on calming the chaos, from blood sugar crashes and gut imbalances to emotional boundaries and lifestyle changes that actually support healing.
💊 SUPPLEMENTATION
This is where we fill in the gaps with intention.
No guessing. No throwing money at the supplement aisle. Based on your labs, we use targeted support to help you heal faster and more effectively.
Why It Works When Nothing Else Has
If you’ve been jumping from one plan to the next hoping something will finally stick, D.R.E.S.S. helps stop the spin. It gives us a clear path to support your body at the root level.
It’s the foundation I use for my programs:
Jumpstart Nutrition Program: Get your personalized food map. Find out what foods work for your body with the MRT food sensitivity testing and Metabolic Typing Assessment.
Root Cause Program: A 90-day intensive for those who are serious about getting to the bottom of chronic symptoms. We run comprehensive labs and map out a personalized healing strategy using the D.R.E.S.S. framework.
“I was in such a slump even after working with a doctor and trying all the other trendy diets. Finding out my food sensitivities was what I needed. I had to take out a lot of my favorite foods (gluten, dairy, sugar) but I was ready and I’m so glad I did. I actually have energy now and no more daytime napping. And, I lost 30 pounds!” - Kizmit, Jumpstart Program Client
