Welcome to Grow Nourished Nutrition, expertly managed by Registered Dietitian Allison Jones in Amarillo, Texas. With 15 years of experience, I integrate both conventional and functional nutrition to take a root cause approach to your nutritional care. My diverse background enables me to work with a broad range of medical conditions, with a specialization in metabolic disorders and weight management by enhancing muscle health and promoting body recomposition. My mission is to empower clients to break free from the cycle of chronic dieting, cultivate self-love, and live confidently. I prioritize helping individuals discover what adds nutritional value to their meals while enriching their lives. I believe that a positive relationship with food can ripple through families, instilling the same confidence in loved ones, including children and friends. I take a holistic approach to nutrition, considering the whole person—nutrition patterns, sleep, stress, activity levels, and gut health. If you’re seeking a practitioner who genuinely listens to your health history and concerns to guide you on your wellness journey, I invite you to book an appointment with me today! Let’s embark on this journey together!
Care Philosophy:
I take a well rounded, root cause approach to care when working with clients. I also listen to client concerns and help empower the client to make changes instead of just giving recommendations that may not work with your lifestyle. I like to look at all areas that can impact our health including sleep, stress, activity levels (and ability to be active), nutrition, and GI health. I encourage clients to take one step at a time starting with small habits and building on those as they go along their journey. I always celebrate small wins like being able to walk farther without being tired or not needing the afternoon pick me up coffee because you're feeling better. Celebrating the small wins can help keep you motivated to keep going.
What to expect in your first session:
During your first session, It is a time for us to get to know each other. I will ask questions to get to know you, your lifestyle, concerns and reason for scheduling an appointment with me. We will have some housekeeping things to discuss like scheduling visits, how to get in touch with me, policies, etc. I also want to give you time to ask me any questions about working with me. We may briefly discuss some nutrition recommendations and set one new goal to work on until the next follow up.
