How We Treat

Health Coaching & Nutrition

Personalized Nutrition for Optimal Wellness

At KALE Functional Medicine in Houston, we believe that health coaching is the cornerstone of healthcare. Our approach recognizes that many age-related diseases are closely related to nutrient deficiencies and imbalances. We focus on balanced nutrient intake as an essential foundation for optimal health and longevity.

Our Health Coaching and Nutrition services go beyond conventional dietary advice to provide truly personalized nutritional strategies that address the root causes of your health concerns. We believe in customized nutrition solutions because people are biochemically unique and enjoy various lifestyles and eating habits.

The KALE Difference: Transformative Nutrition

Evidence-Based Nutritional Therapy

Our approach to nutrition is grounded in scientific research while recognizing the wisdom of traditional healing systems. We use the latest research in nutritional science to develop personalized protocols that support your specific health goals.

Root-Cause Focus

Rather than simply addressing symptoms, our nutritional strategies target the underlying imbalances affecting your health. We focus on treating the root cause of an illness or disease, rather than masking the symptoms, using nutrition as a primary therapeutic tool.

Comprehensive Assessment

Before making dietary recommendations, we perform thorough assessments that may include:

  • Detailed health history evaluation
  • Food journal analysis
  • Targeted laboratory testing
  • Body composition analysis with InBody scans
  • Evaluation of digestive function

Personalized Nutrition Protocols

Based on your assessment results, our health coaches develop customized nutrition plans such as:

  • Anti-inflammatory dietary strategies
  • Gut healing protocols
  • Detoxification support
  • Hormone-balancing nutrition
  • Energy-optimization meal plans
  • Food sensitivity elimination programs

The Kale Way

When you choose KALE Functional Medicine as your functional medicine provider in Houston, your journey to better health follows a structured approach.

Ready to start your functional medicine journey? 

Initial Consultation

Your first visit includes a thorough review of your health history, current concerns, and wellness goals. This 60-90 minute appointment allows our functional medicine doctor to understand your unique situation and begin developing your personalized care plan.

Based on your initial consultation, we’ll recommend targeted functional laboratory testing to identify underlying imbalances, deficiencies, or dysfunctions that may be contributing to your health concerns.

After analyzing your test results, we’ll create a customized protocol addressing nutrition, supplementation, lifestyle modifications, and therapeutic interventions specifically designed for your needs.

Through regular follow-up appointments, we’ll track your progress, make necessary adjustments to your care plan, and provide continued guidance on your health journey.

Patient Success Stories

I was happy to find a female – personal preference – doctor (MD) who could assist with all of my medical needs versus a nurse practitioner or chiropractor who was also doing holistic medicine. Dr. Rowley’s smile and compassion put me at ease immediately…
