Physical Observation for Nutritional Deficiencies by Dr. Keri Brown, ND

Therapeutic Assessment of Sub-Clinical Symptoms and Organ Health

Learning how to observe physical features can help you determine nutritional deficiency patterns and health needs prior to disease occurring. This information is imperative in today’s health care and in the “sub-clinical” patient, before disease progresses to outright symptoms and blood work changes.

Traditional doctors used physical observations of our body to confirm our health issues. They did not and could not relay on testing or blood work. Physical observations enable you to take the guess work out of nutritional deficiencies and organ health patterns.

This class insures a measurement of patient evaluation as a critical tool in your medical toolbox. If pre-and post-nutritional evaluations and sound patient observations are added, the practitioner can confirm the findings while creating a recordable and even visual benchmark for patients to see the change and progress.

This approach heightens the practitioner’s ability to identify root causes, target priorities, and integrated patient interaction, while improving understanding, retention and compliance. Using functional assessments of the digestion system, thyroid, adrenals, and more, the health and direction of care becomes more obvious to see, treat, and monitor.

While correlating specific observations and testing procedures, you can determine organ health, utilization of nutritional factors, and what direction is best for your client. We will look at our tongue, face, nails, reflexes points, and simple office testing procedures to determine how to help our patients through physical observations for nutritional deficiencies.
