At Towers Family Chiropractic, we recognize that nutrition plays a crucial role in every aspect of health, from managing chronic conditions to optimizing overall wellness. Unlike generic supplement recommendations that focus only on symptoms, our Nutrition Services approach takes a comprehensive look at your unique health profile. Through detailed nutritional assessments—including lab testing, body composition analysis, and medical history evaluations—we develop personalized nutrition plans tailored to your specific needs. Whether you’re looking to improve energy levels, manage weight, or support recovery from illness, our evidence-based approach ensures you receive the right guidance for lasting health and vitality.
Our goal in actively using nutrition as part of individualized healthcare is to set you on the clear path towards making health-promoting lifestyle changes. Each individual’s needs are different based on genetics, medical/diet history, life stage, exercise and stress level; it follows that each of us will need our own road-map in order to give support to weak areas, provide missing nutrients, and assist with the removal of toxic substances that interfere with good health. We offer lab testing and BIA testing as part of making an assessment and then use both diet and supplements (vitamins, minerals, herbs), plus lifestyle changes (some of which are listed in Healthy Habits) to make recommendations and do follow-up evaluations. Our office offers for sale a wide range of good quality vitamin/mineral/herb supplements from several reputable companies.

Most people giving diet and supplement advice or selling vitamins and supplements base their recommendations on very limited information– your symptoms or a disease you have. Supplements are often pushed while diet is ignored or vaguely addressed. We base our recommendations on a complete picture of you. This includes:
- Diet/ medical/dental histories
- Height, weight, age and gender
- Bio-electrical impedance results
- Objective lab tests that we order or lab results that are supplied by the patient
- Prescription and OTC drug use
- emotional and physical stress
- lifestyle (exercise, smoking)
- pregnancy and lactation
- genetic predispositions
- chemical exposures
