the most successful patients

Our clients come to see us for a large variety of health concerns. The most common reasons are: Fatigue, digestive issues, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, and anxiety/panic or depression. They have been in and out of the health care system over the years, been through lots of testing and are largely told that everything is normal and sometimes that things must be, "in your head."

While the testing, specific supplementation recommendations and other therapies are crucial for getting one's health back on track, there is a common theme in the patients that have the most success in reaching their health goals. Those that truly invest their time and energy in whole foods nutrition and find a go-to stress management therapy get to the root issue faster, with more intensity and create a more stable foundation for health than everyone else.

For this reason, we want to make a greater commitment to providing support and education around these crucial pieces. This means making avaible services that are convenient and less expensive than one-on-one counseling. We are now offering group visits to meet with Meghann for nutrition support. Chances are lots of folks are struggling with the same issues and concerns you are. Meeting in an hour group visit to discuss nutrition can take your health to the next level. We are also starting group stress management sessions with our nurse practitioner using Heartmath.

Call or email (clinic@gladdmd.com) to sign up.

how to increase productivity

When Richard Branson (founder of Virgin Group) was asked in an interview what advice he would give to those who want to be more productive, his answer was completely unpredictable: “Work out”.

So true, I started a new workout regimen this morning with a personal trainer so that I don't just rely on myself to reach the intensity, proper form and frequency I want in my workouts. Today, I have been particularly energetic, focused and looking to come up with new creative projects.

Why isn't this the default then? Carving out the time to exercise and push ourselves to enhance our health and productivity. We find road blocks constantly: An extra hour of sleep, a TV show, or spend time on the computer. Maybe the accountability factor of working with a trainer will help you. Maybe it's simply finding a friend to meet you for a walk or workout.

Regardless of what gets you exercising regularly, schedule it in your calendar and get started soon. Your creativity and productivity will help you forget about that extra hour of sleep.
