📍 Serving clients virtually across the U.S.

👋🏾 Hi, I’m Margaret Gathunguri

Restorative Health Practitioner & Functional Nutrition Counselor

For years, I lived with unexplained swelling, pain, and exhaustion — even while doing everything “right.” Clean eating, discipline, plant-based nutrition…it worked for several years, and then it suddenly stopped. I had no idea what to do next.

What I learned is this:

You can’t sustain what you don’t understand.
Your lab work holds answers your symptoms are trying to tell you.

Now I help people living with joint pain, nerve pain, autoimmune flares, chronic inflammation, and stubborn weight-loss resistance finally understand what’s driving their symptoms — so they can support their bodies with clarity and confidence.

Many of my clients have been community centered tech experts, farm workers, nurses, therapists, educators, and mind-bodyworkers — but you don’t need to be in a caring profession to work with me. If you’re navigating symptoms that don’t make sense, you’re welcome here.

✨ How I Help

As a functional nutrition counselor, the goal is to support long-term joint health using science-backed nutritional solutions. In collaboration with a joint pain specialist, services may address inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and digestive balance. This integrated method helps improve flexibility, reduce discomfort, and promote sustainable pain management without relying solely on medications.

I use functional blood chemistry analysis, personalized nutrition, and targeted therapeutic planning to help you:

  • Identify what’s actually causing your symptoms

  • understand what your labs actually mean — beyond the usual “everything looks normal” or the vague advice to “just eat healthy” or “avoid certain foods.”

  • reduce inflammation and pain

  • improve energy, metabolic health, and weight-loss resistance

  • get a clear, step-by-step plan

  • receive the support needed to follow through

You don’t have to navigate this alone — and you don’t have to keep guessing.
