Alyssa Neill RDN Alyssa Neill is a Registered Dietitian, who simplifies the pathway to a balanced biochemistry through nutrition. With her whole-food-centric protocols, Alyssa promotes that nutrition is always individual; as we each have our own bio-chemical “finger print”. With nutrition counseling, personalized protocols, and an enthusiastic no-fail atmosphere, Nourishment Nutrition provides guidance for women and men throughout the US. Alyssa continually guides her clients to reach optimal health and performance, while to illuminating life through whole food, individualized nourishment. Evolutionarily, it's all about, "survival of the fittest", or maybe, "survival of the sexiest” is more accurate. The desire to be beautiful, vibrant, and attractive is one that is deeply intertwined with our desire to survive. To be wanted, lusted after. To reproduce. Stop shaming yourself for wanting to radiate health and beauty and come to the grand realization that our sex hormones, are what give us our vitality. Lucky for us, through nutrition, we can optimize our biochemistry to balance our hormones, and reach radiance. Jeff Brew, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac. Jeff has been in practice for nearly four years. He earned a Bachelors in Psychology and went to SWAC (Southwest Acupuncture College) in Boulder for his Masters in Acupuncture. Aside from general holistic wellness, Jeff’s main clinical focus tends to be women's health and sports medicine. Jeff has found that Sex Positivity and acupuncture collide on a variety of levels. He treats many patients for conditions such as erectile dysfunction, pelvic floor pain, low libido, and anorgasmia, but the roots actually go much deeper. Jeff acknowledges that acupuncture approaches healing through a mind / body / spirit approach and American culture tends to have peculiar attitudes toward sexual personhood, his main goal is to help people connect with, and embrace their essential selves. While psychotherapy therapy is a critical tool for many people, acupuncture acts on our ways of processing emotions that aren't based in language. By applying the principles of traditional East Asian medicine we are able to address complex spiritual and emotional issues around things like traumatic history (sexual or otherwise), body dysmorphia or other body image issues, and helping to navigate emotions surrounding gender identity to name a few. Generally speaking acupuncture helps people connect and embrace who they truly are, dissolve shame, heal trauma, and remove the blocks that are getting in the way of their delving deep into the rich, zesty, wonderful sex life they have every right to enjoy. Being able to address these issues without having to experience the vulnerability of explicitly articulating them in a clinical setting can be such a huge step for people in all stages of the therapeutic process.
