Inna
Topiler is an Integrative Nutritionist who works with patients to clear
up confusion about healthy eating and address the root causes of health
concerns instead of just the symptoms.
Nutrition is not only what
you consume but also what you absorb, and Inna specializes in the most
cutting-edge testing available today to figure out what is going on
inside the body.
Hair Analysis, Complete Metabolic Profiles, Food
Allergy, DNA Analysis, GI pathogen panels, Salivary Neurotransmitter
and Hormone panels are some of the tests that she performs. Findings
from these highly sophisticated tests determine vitamin and mineral
imbalances, metabolic and endocrine disturbances as well as
predisposition to various diseases. Far more extensive than a routine
blood test, this information can be used to interpret a world of
internal events, your complete nutritional status, metabolism, and the
efficiency of all the major processes in your body. With this
information, Inna devises a Custom Nutrition Program, encompassing
diet, nutrients, cleansing and physical activity, to address
deficiencies and ailments. It is a marriage of food and science where
the custom programs take into account lifestyle, genetics, prior eating
style and your specific health concerns. When it comes to health and
nutrition, there is no one-size-fits-all approach; everyone's body is
different, wouldn't you like to know what is going on inside yours?

BODY WORK/ MASSAGE
ACUPRESSURE $80 per session
Dan Coletta Dan Coletta is a certified practitioner of IGM Therapeutic Acupressure. He has long had a keen interest in energy balancing, particularly after observing the beneficial effects it had on family and friends. He became inspired by the ability of IGM Acupressure to balance the mind and body and began his mission to utilize the method to help people. Dan has an avid interest in alternative health modalities and is so happy to be working in an environment with other like-minded individuals. He resides in Hoboken, NJ where he has established his practice.
The body has a network of energy chanenels, called meridians, which carry life-force (chi) energy. Acupressure is based on the theory that wellness is maintained by regulating the flow of energy through these meridians. When this flow of energy becomes blocked, pain or discomfort can manifest in certain parts of the body.
IGM Therapeutic Acupressure involves applying pressure to 50 points along the meridians to reopen these channels and restore balance to the body.
REFLEXOLOGY $90 per 1 hour session
