** ^^ This button will take you to calendar with the "Iron infusion consult and treatment" selected. This will ensure we have enough time to do both. Please only book this if you already have your blood work complete. (If you have your blood work already please email it ahead of time).
GEtting started - what you need IN THREE STEPS
IV IRON INFUSION PROGRAM & COSTS
1. BLOOD WORK
COST: $0 - 120 - $240
To be eligible for IV iron infusions I need to see recent bloodwork (taken with in the last 4 weeks)
You can either do this through your GP or Nurse practitioner or through me (billed privately). See below.
I need to see the following (costs if billed privately through my clinic):
Hematology Panel $120 - which includes complete blood count, differential, iron, transferrin saturation, and ferritin. (No fasting required).
Comprehensive Panel $240 - "Hematology Panel" above, plus liver & kidney function, electrolytes, blood glucose, cholesterol, etc. (Fasting preferred). This is a great option if you haven't had any blood work down in a year or so.
2. INJECTION CONSULT
COST: $180
TIME: 45 minutes
Because... safety first.
Before you are eligible for IV iron therapy we need to have a consult so I can understand the full history and your goals with iron infusion therapy.
We'll review your blood work and do any relevant physical exams (blood pressure for example). If it's warranted and safe to do so, and we have enough time allotted ** we can do the first iron infusion that day or book you back in to begin.
Please come to your appointment fed and hydrated.

3. TREATMENTS
COST: $200 x 4
TIME: 45 Minutes
I use Venofer (iron sucrose) as it comes with the lowest risk and best safety profile (for a clinic my size).
I recommend weekly infusions for a total of 4 treatments. Each week your IV will contain up to 100 mg of iron.
Your first treatment might be a modified dose, depending on what I learn in your injection consult.
Most see clinical improvements between 3 and 21 days after.
We typically see ferritin increase by 10-15 points for each 100 mg of iron administered (less if anemic).
We will rerun the Iron Panel and CBC approximately 4-5 weeks after your last treatment.
Please come to your appointment fed and hydrated.

HAPPY BODIES. HAPPY PEOPLE.
IRON IV INFUSIONS
& ANEMIA POSTS:
Energized. Happy. Satisfied. Present.
"I’ve been that person who’s forgotten what it’s like to smile regularly. I’ve given the dirty looks, let out the exasperated sighs. Stormed off in a huff, trinkets rattling on shelves in the wake of my slamming doors.." - Coach Tonia
My husband caught me smiling in the shower.
He said, “You never smile!” I don't know why I was smiling... I was just so happy!
Gosh, I love hearing these joyful client stories.
She and I, we’ve both come a long way.
I’ve been that person who’s forgotten what it’s like to smile regularly. I’ve given the dirty looks, let out the exasperated sighs. Stormed off in a huff, trinkets rattling on shelves in the wake of my slamming doors.
Running on fumes, with a fuse so short, I just didn’t have the capacity to even consider being kind - not to myself and definitely not to the precious people around me.
I needed to find a way home to myself, to get back to being that person who smiles - spontaneously in the shower.
You may recognize that as the title of my book, and good eye, you’re spot on. I called my book Smiling in the Shower: The Swift Simple Way to Break Through Burnout and Create Happy Energized Days because of this 👆incredible client story.
What’s the big deal, you’re wondering? Well… for this person that shower smile was a micro marker of the massive change she experienced after having a brain-based coaching breakthrough.
And you may think smiling in the shower is a silly thing to want…and you may be right… unless you know what it actually means. And I know, because I figured out a way to make it happen easily and consistently, not just for me but for my clients as well.
On the other side of the restless nights and chronic case of the Eeyores is a person who is (every hyped adjective that you can think of).
THEY ARE (every positive adjective you can think of):
⚡Energized
😄Happy
🥰Satisfied
😊Fulfilled
✌️At peace
🙂Calm
💕Present
🧠Conscious
💗Compassionate
🤗Gentle
😌Patient
😗Curious...
... not just in the morning but all through the day.
Stop for a moment and Imagine what you could do if just a fraction of those were true for you. What would that allow you to do, to be, to have? To shed? To release? To care for? To love?
If you're looking to find out how you can get back to being that kind of person, what a sweet coincidence.
I’m actively searching for people who want to be the type of person who smiles in the shower. If that’s you, then let’s chat.
I coach my clients through a Brain-Based Breakthrough and I know first hand how effective it is because I’ve been through it three times as a client. I’m a transformation coach walking my talk.
If you're looking to smile again then, there are two simple ways to work together.
1️⃣First if you haven’t yet grab yourself a copy of Break Through The Insomnia Cycle.
BREAK THROUGH THE INSOMNIA CYCLE: HOW TO SLEEP DEEPLY, WAKE RESTED, AND ENJOY HAPPY, ENERGIZED DAYS
2️⃣I invite you to book a discovery call with me or my team.
Sooooo.... if you already know that you're the over being stuck with your stressful thoughts and worries, then maybe you also already know you're really ready to reestablish energy, happiness, satisfaction, and presence, and are wanting some personal help to do just that... then book a discovery call with me or my team.
