Health Professionals in Maine

I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and Certified Intuitive Eating Counselor, whose practice is guided by the empirical principles of “Health At Every Size” (HAES). I believe that respecting all persons in all bodies is the weight-inclusive, compassionate, self-care approach to wellness that achieves the most affirmative outcomes.

Nutrition doesn't need to feel overwhelming, restrictive or boring. As an Intuitive Eating and HAES-aligned Registered Dietitian Nutritionist, Lauren focuses her counseling on building healthy relationships with food and body, rediscovering enjoyment with food, and nourishment that supports your overall wellbeing. Lauren works with you on creating attainable and sustainable goals based on your individualized needs that support an optimal wellbeing through behavior modification.

Do you struggle with digestive issues, joint aches and pains, fatigue, or problems with losing weight? Perhaps you’ve been told that all of your lab work looks good, but you still don’t feel good? You may even feel like there is something that is being missed. You may be aware that labs coming back normal does not always mean you are experiencing optimal health. Having symptoms such as gas, bloating, diarrhea, constipation, pain, and/or low energy means that something is off. One thing that often underlies each of these symptoms is inflammation.

I believe we are all born intuitive eaters, and in order to return to this, we must heal from the messages thrown our way by diet culture and remember how to trust our own instincts and experiences. During my dietetic internship, I also nurtured a love for GI nutrition and have seen that for those with GI disorders, intuitive eating practices can be integral to finding peace with food as well.

If you are struggling because you have pain issues, difficulty sleeping, or are undergoing mental and emotional stress, massage therapy may bring you the relief you seek. I have helped many people with a wide array of issues--people with very physical jobs, people who sit all day, athletes, people who have undergone great physical traumas and surgeries--the benefits of massage therapy are far reaching. In addition to resolving pain issues, massage therapy promotes deep relaxation and a sense of well being. As your body releases tension, your mind becomes more peaceful.

Breathe Easy Massageworks offers non-invasive injury recovery and wellness massage for revitalizing body and mind. It's a great joy and privilege to support the energy engineered by a person's inner resources, physical state, and conscience, as they respond to input and new proprioceptive awareness activated through their massage therapy treatments. Each massage therapy client is naturally unique and, therefore, unpredictable in his or her response to bodywork. Changes happen only with the client's willing approval. Because clients are active participants in the process, this positive and interactive approach allows fascial changes to be easily assimilated and deeply integrated.

I am here to help adults who are dealing with chronic illness, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, digestive health, weight loss strategies and stress relief. People who are looking to make overall healthier lifestyle changes, maybe through diet changes or understanding the issues that can be holding you back from change.

Acupuncture is a safe, effective, and natural form of healthcare that will get you feeling your best. Treating a patient is not just a matter of giving someone acupuncture. All aspects of your wellness are addressed, from stress management, and exercise, to diet and simple lifestyle changes. Watching patients reclaim their health, and seeing the immense changes that transpire over weeks or months, is truly phenomenal. Many patients come to me after "trying everything else," and it's great to be able to give them the relief they've been searching for.
