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.

How to Create Powerful Change in Your Life and Health

Increasing Value In Your Life By Changing Your Habits

March 31, 20233 min read

“It's like why haven't I been doing these good things for so long?” - JT Coaching Client

You know when you have those results that surprise and delight you?

Those times when you stop for a moment and realize that things are turning out better than expected.

Say you prepare a new 3 course meal from your favorite foodie for a dinner party. And through the harrowing challenges of getting the ingredients weighed just right, coordinating the timing of what's coming in and out of the oven and having the table elegantly set just so...

...You totally nail it and your guests love it.

There's value there and everyone around the table knows it as they lean back in their chairs, belts shamelessly undone, satisfied and transformed.


And I'm noticing something similar with my coaching clients.

They are getting tremendous results. Incredible value. Powerful transforming is happening. Satisfaction increasing. Health, lives and relationships changing. For. The. Better.

They are doing things they haven't been able to do in years:

  • Overcoming phobias

  • Changing habits

  • Quitting vices

  • Enjoying a single delicious cookie with intention instead of crushing through the whole bag on autopilot, and being weighed down (literally) by the guilt of it

  • Walking 10 blocks without pain

  • Managing all the people they care for with ease and joy

  • Mending life-long strained relationships

  • Having hard conversations and staying calm and cool

  • Finding compassion and curiosity for themselves and even those around them who have been hard to love in the past

  • Focusing

  • Creating

  • Getting up and moving their bodies

  • Putting themself first

  • Deepening their partnerships

  • Calming their parenting

  • Forgiving

  • Moving on

  • Releasing 10 pounds, 20, or in my personal case 40 pounds of stored stress weight

These are just a few examples of what I've seen over the past few weeks working with my clients and coaching them through a brain-based BreakThrough.

These are real results. And the love texts are pouring in:

And let's not underestimate the power of a happy cat holding a happy heart:

One fellow just gave me an update:

I'm so much clearer and it's easy to have mindful intentions. It's like why haven't I been doing these good things for so long? I have more energy. I found tools (thanks to you Tonia) to catch my mind from spinning, and I just pause and tell myself to get at cause, and my body relaxes. I'm getting to that point where I can say, "Everything is great

Later in this same session for the purpose of an exercise I asked this fellow to think of something coming up that he was minorly anxious about.

“I can’t come up with anything. My anxiety is gone.”

😲
