NUTRITION COUNSELING


Tamra Rosenfeld, MS, is a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with The Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. She built her experience teaching in a graduate program, working in different hospital settings, and in her own consulting practice.


Nutrition counseling can be an important complement to physical therapy. Examples include an anti-inflammatory diet to benefit patients with arthritic conditions, weight loss to decrease pain and increase flexibility in hips and knees, and a high protein diet to reduce healing time after injuries or surgeries. Additionally, eating a balanced, healthy diet can help with energy, mood, blood sugar regulation and weight control.


Genetics, lifestyle, stress level, and activity levels can all influence diet. Tamra takes into consideration all of these factors and the result is an eating plan precisely tailored to each individual.
