Working with Elise was such a wonderful experience. In my journey to wellness I thought I was doing things right with my diet and natural supplements however, I was still struggling. Elise helped me to find the missing pieces to my health journey. Her expertise and knowledge was invaluable. She helped me to find out the root causes for the health issues I was struggling with, and in addition, provided incredible education into these areas so I could better understand what the problems were and take the necessary steps to getting well. Elise is passionate about helping others in their journey to wellness.

I am a business owner, and as such, it has been challenging for me to know how to balance being "super woman," a woman who works a full-time job successfully, loves her family well, eats well, exercises, has other healthy relationships, and does everything "perfectly." (Well, that doesn't exist!) However, in our striving to live life well, our health and emotional livelihood can sometimes become unbalanced. This was my case a year and a half ago when I had gone through a very difficult break up, and subsequently, a very stressful work situation. My adrenals and thyroid were out of whack, so much so that my primary care physician wanted to keep testing me to see if I should go onto medication. Instead, I went to see Elise...and began a learning journey of listening to my body, what's good for it, and what it actually needs. (It was very different than I had anticipated.) From then on, I began to be much more balanced in all aspects of life, and I am a much healthier person emotionally and physically! Here are a few other miraculous things that have happened: I no longer "crash" in the afternoons or weekends. Previous to seeing Elise, my body was missing essential nutrients and around 4:00 p.m., and on weekends, I would become so exhausted that I couldn't do anything after work. This limited my desire and ability to exercise and maintain healthy relationships. Through changing my eating patterns to what my body needed (which is different for each person), based on the testing Elise performed on me, and taking her recommended supplements, my body has dramatically healed. Not only that, but previous to Elise, my bloodwork showed that my thyroid was borderline problematic. One year later, I retook the same tests with Elise, and then blood tests with my primary care (to confirm Elise's findings). My tests came back extremely positive: My adrenals were back in the "safe" zone, and my thyroid was completely normal! I am so thankful for how Elise's expertise has changed my life and helped me learn how at least to attempt to be "super woman." Thank you, Elise!

When it comes to customer service, Elise goes above and beyond!

I had the privilege of having a nutritional therapy consultation with Elise several months ago and in that consultation, I received information specific to what my body needed that I have since implemented into my daily lifestyle and diet, and I have experienced the benefits! I have become a huge believer in nutritional therapy because of the benefits that I have experienced in my body through Elise's services.

Not only that, but Elise has even helped me and has given me information outside of a consultation when I was experiencing things in my body that I was unsure of. She goes above and beyond in cultivating great relationships with her customers!

If you are looking for a nutritional therapist in Redding or Shasta County, I highly recommend Elise Hawkins!

Elise Hawkins was so thorough and helpful when I was facing emotional trauma and needed to build my immune system because my body was under too much stress. Through her prescriptions of diet and supplements I was able to get back to a healthy lifestyle and I am sure that I avoided sickness by following her nutrition plans. I have not been sick since meeting with her over two years ago!!

When my family came to Elise, we decided to go because we needed a knowledgable support system to help us better navigate through some of the symptomology we were experiencing: Eczema outbreaks, chronic fatigue, irregular bowel movements--to name a few.

Elise was not only knowledgable like we had hoped, but attentive and adaptable to our families needs in all the right ways. in a few short weeks, with her excellent suggestions almost all of our symptoms subsided. My husband whom had struggle with weight loss for years, lost 45lbs lbs in 8 weeks and has never felt better.

My own and my son's skin issues subsided after 3weeks. My after baby pudge that I thought was the permenant result of two c-sections disappeared and my abs happily came back--with no crunches.

We can't recommend Elise and her expertise enough. It truly was her incredible knowledge base that helped our family get to the healthier lifestyle we always dreamed of.

Shasta Nutritional Therapy

"The Get at the Roots Weight Loss program Elise offer's is very well written and makes it easy to understand and follow. It's hands down the most thorough program in regards to the necessary foods your body needs to function properly and looking at any underlying issues that could be interfering with weight loss. It really helps you learn how to identify with your body and find out what works and doesn't. The wealth of knowledge in the workbook and from the instructor is outstanding. Elise goes above and beyond to help her clients get to the root of their issues. She is very passionate about helping people get to their healthiest body and it shows in how she takes the time to champion you onward. I've tried different programs and this far out weighs the others. I don't feel restricted with my eating with this program but invited into a healthier way of eating and a different perspective on what my body truly needs. It's a wholistic approach which I find is more beneficial for lasting results. I've finally found something that works." - Kristin

This NTP has helped me to change my life through helping me to discover the root issues of many of my health issues. She is very knowledgeable and she helped me to build a foundation for healthy eating habits and has gotten me on a path to whole health. I am amazed at how great I feel after having changed the way that I approach food. She does not believe in a "fix-it-quick diet fad" method, but instead she gives practical tools and relevant information that lead to a lifestyle of health and wellness. You can tell that she has done her research into the science behind the approach to her methods. I owe my health and my renewed energy to her guidance in my life. I am so thankful that I chose to invest in my health and get help and guidance from Elise Hawkins.
