I believe that health is not just the absence of disease but a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being. I strive to promote this holistic approach to health by offering functional medicine & integrative nutrition services that address all aspects of wellness.
I am a Naturopath & Health Coach certified in Functional Medicine & Integrative Nutrition. I am dedicated to staying up-to-date with the latest research and developments in the functional & integrative medicine scientific field to provide my clients with the best possible solutions. I have extensive knowledge and experience in gut health and the harmful effects of chronic stress.
We will work together virtually over 4 to 6 months to uncover the root causes of your health concerns and put you on a path to healing sustainably. I will guide you in understanding what is at play in your unique body, analyze your biochemistry with lab test(s), and create a bio-individual plan for you. During our time together, I will address nutritional deficiencies through nutrition, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle changes.
Dis-ease starts in the gut. That’s why every health protocol considers your microbiome’s health and addresses its imbalances. Building an optimal microbiome is essential to putting you on the right track for healing.
Nutrition is not just what we eat. We nourish ourselves with food, thoughts, relationships, and surroundings… Integrative Nutrition looks at you as a whole person rather than just at what you eat. But don't worry, I've got you covered regarding what you put in your mouth! After all, food is medicine! Based on your unique situation, I'll advise an individualized therapeutic diet to fast track your healing.
The program includes a Functional Laboratory Test to uncover the unique dynamics at play in your body. I use Functional Laboratories across North America and Europe.
We are all different, so why should we have a blanket approach to health? My protocols are designed to look at your bio-individuality and support your unique body. One person's magic remedy can be another's poison. I will guide you through understanding what you need to heal and thrive.
Lasting changes require motivation and support. All health protocols are designed to give you the encouragement and support you need. My step-by-step guidance and unique coaching will keep you accountable and motivated to get to the finish line.
Mrs. Joanna Heyse is a consummate professional. I was her client for eight health coaching sessions. I have only positive things to say about her and what I gained from my experience with her. She helped me to evaluate my blood work testing results and listened to my symptoms. From there, she helped me with stress reduction, she helped me increase joy in my life, she coached me on diet and gut health, and she led me through a time in my life where I didn't know what to do about my physical symptoms which have eluded all other health professionals that I have worked with. And, my symptoms have greatly decreased! I feel nothing but abounding gratitude for her services and her concern. She is grounded in science and psychology. She is caring. She is unique. For me, I have never had a better experience with a medical practitioner than I have had with her. Not even close. She is head and shoulders above the rest. I have total optimism about my future health, and that came from Mrs. Joanna Heyse.

If you are lost because there is too much informations about nutrition everywhere, if you have the feeling that you tried everything and nothing really worked, if you are tired of the experts explaining you why this diet is better than this one and if all the conflicting informations end up making no sense anymore, Joanna will make you see the light at the end of the tunnel.
No matter if you suffer from chronic pain or disease, or if something in you just tells you that you have more potential, she has an incredible ability to adapt, to read your symptoms, to explain the messages that our body tries to tell us then to give you the key to feel amazing.
As a professional athlete, I came to Joanna with a lot of pain in my back during the night for the past 5 years, something no one could really explain or treat. I had been testing a lot of different approaches about nutrition and had the feeling that I was eating quite healthy.
In less than 2 weeks working with Joanna, the pain was almost completely gone and after less than a month my energy level was amazing, better than ever. My understanding about food is now much clearer but also the trust in my ability to select the right food for the right moment, to listen to my body and give him what he needs.
But most important, Joanna listened and respected my lifestyle and helped my to adjust and find solutions, even if I didn’t have much time to cook and didn’t really enjoyed it.

Working with Joanna has been such a blessing because I began working with her at a time when I had lost hope. I have been battling with IBS and Sibo for years before I met her, and given that my symptoms were worsening, I resolved that this would be my life from now on. Upon meeting her, I was struck by her genuine care and gentleness. She never promised a cure but only the tools to improve and manage my quality of life. She takes a holistic approach and provided me the tools to manage a flareup if it occurred. Since completing my program with her, I feel empowered and have learned the value of balance a balanced lifestyle. She goes above and beyond in order to support her clients on their healing journey and I highly recommend her.

I have been seeing Joanna weekly for the past couple of months for my overall gut health. I have seen great results in not only my gut health, but also my overall physical and mental health. She has pushed me out of my comfort zone and offered continual support even outside of our scheduled appointments to ensure that I moving along with the protocols that we put in place. The program that she created for me was tailored to my specific concerns, and was always adaptable to ensure that I would be successful and not get discouraged when things were difficult.
She is also very adaptable and has offered safe in-person visits, as well as Zoom visits depending on what works best for my schedule.
I highly recommend Joanna.
