Services
Nutritonal Therapy Sessions
Sessions can be in person or secure video conferencing. I evaluate your current health status before providing nutritional recommendations to optimize your health and wellness. My recommendations are bio-individual and focus on nutritional, mindset and lifestyle changes.
Health Coaching
Sessions can be in person or secure video conferencing. Health coaching is a client lead process where over the course of 3 or 6 months, the client evaluates their current health and how they would like to improve it. Throughout our weekly sessions, the coach provides accountability, problem solving techniques and unconditional support allowing the client to build slowly to reach their health and wellness goals.
RESTART® Program
Restart® is a 5 week program that includes at 21 day sugar detox. This is a small group format (online or in-person) that provides a built-in support group. You will learn how to use REAL FOOD to boost your energy, reduce inflammation and get rid of sugar and carb cravings.

By now you know I want to help people improve the quality of their food choices. What you may not know is that I make lifestyle recommendations as well. Some of these include tips for increasing exercise or improving sleep but I also educate clients about many harmful ingredients in everyday items we use. My goal when I work with clients is to meet my clients where they are by addressing what changes they are comfortable making to their lifestyle that will improve their overall wellness.
These lifestyle recommendations aren’t about spending a ton of money to overhaul your house. This is too expensive and leads to a lot of waste…two things I am against!
Testimonials
I was so glad to work with Maureen St. Germain to gain a holistic understanding of the role of diet, eating and sleep habits play in my level of energy and overall hormone balance.
What was extremely helpful was to have Maureen study my individual habits and make very specific recommendations based on this listening and learning. She had a number of very astute observations that I was able to adjust with incredible results that were felt over about a 6-week period. I highly recommend working with Maureen. She is very caring, supportive and knowledgeable about the body and does not take a one size fits all approach.
I have taken a much stronger interest in diversifying the food I eat as well as understanding the quantity of food my body needs. In following the intermittent fasting approach I had actually gained weight because my body was in starvation mode and was not getting the appropriate quality and quantity of vitamins and minerals. I am grateful to Maureen for her support in putting me on a much better path! -Jennifer
I have suffered with severe chronic pain and stiffness for almost 25 years. I was ultimately diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I've tried several medications over the years which I either could not tolerate or did not help. On the last day of RESTART®, I noticed my pain and stiffness was significantly better. I didn't think that much of it because I do get an occasional "good" day. But I have had 3 "good" days in a row now and that is unheard of for me.
I cannot tell you how life changing this is for me. I've learned to deal with the pain over so many years, but it would break me down periodically. If I feel like I'm 100 when I'm 55, what is it going to feel like when I'm truly old? Shortly before RESTART®, I was in tears again thinking "I've got to go back to the doctor. Maybe there is something new." Well, who knew the "something new" was in my control all along. Thank you so much for this amazing gift. -Kelly
I was petrified to put on the jeans I haven’t worn since COVID. I went through the Restart® Program and kept up most of the eating habits and slid into those jeans today! Feels great! -Anne
