Why is Functional Nutrition Important For Connective Tissue Health?

Structural nutrition is a more specialized aspect of functional nutrition that includes advanced bodywork to release tissue restriction, allowing the body to function optimally.

What is Structural Nutrition?

Structural nutrition focuses on identifying deficiencies or excess nutrients your connective tissues—bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and skin need to recover.

A massage and bodywork therapist is already your go-to for tissue pain. Now, you can trust us to help bring the tools you need to recover.

What does a Structural Nutrition Practitioner do?

We take a comprehensive look at the body structure—joints, bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and fascia tissue—from the bodywork perspective of a licensed massage therapist. Then, we recommend your next step.

This way, we can see what is missing and educate you on how to proceed with recovering your health.

Are you wondering why your joints are not well?

Injury is often the biggest culprit in joint health. Other factors include genetics, past injury, infection, and environmental factors.

For most of us, genetics is the biggest culprit. And you might be thinking, "If my genes are involved, there's no hope for me." That's not true! We believe our genetics are written in stone and we cannot change them, but that is not entirely true either.

Genetics plays a significant role in our health and wellness for sure. While there's still much to understand, it's a promising field. The best part is that there's a lot we can do to influence gene expression.

Ask us how you can use the information on your genetic test to manage your connective tissue health.

Does what happens outside the cells affect our genetics?

Yes. Imagine a daily onslaught of chemical, physical, or emotional stress. And you feel:

  • Worried about your joint and body pain?
  • Stress about your health and how long you can continue like this?
  • Anxious about the frequent bloating and gas.
  • Worried about your stomach swelling.
  • Worried about why you feel tired after a good night's sleep?
  • Fatigue, tired or lethargic after a great workout.

Imagine a drop of chemicals or a little stress here and there is no problem. The body knows how to clear them. Long-term chemical exposure, physical or emotional stressors, not eating the right diet for you, and the presence of low-grade infection can slow down the body's detox pathway.

When the body cannot effectively remove toxins, they slowly build up and cause pain.

If the toxic flow were symptoms, you would feel them immediately, like when you eat rotten fish. Or they could be slow-brewing,  where it may take a few days or decades before the spill, but once it starts, inflammation begins.

Yeah! Symptoms sometimes take years to appear and when they do, they could affect our genetic expression for disease. Why wait?

Where else are connective tissue present?

  • Brain
  • Gut
  • Blood
  • Eyes
  • Bones
  • Muscles
  • Heart
  • Kidney

Joint swelling often causes pain right away, but the effect of brain and gut swelling is not immediate. When you feel joint pain unrelated to injury, inflammation could already exist in the body.

What else could be causing my joint or bone pain?

By now, you can guess that other than our genes, the body can be influenced by other factors, such as:

  • Heavy metals, aka tooth filling
  • Mold and biotoxins
  • Fungi
  • Lyme
  • Hidden infection

These toxins and heavy metals are stored in our bones or organ cells. They interfere with nutrient absorption, transportation, and hormone function. Leaving you thinking and feeling:

  • Low energy after a good night's sleep
  • Weak immune system function, such as slow wound healing
  • "No matter how much I sleep, I just don’t feel rested. It’s like I’m constantly running on empty."
  • "My eyes are frequently dry and irritated. Sometimes it feels like there's sand in them."
  • "I often have heartburn or trouble swallowing food. It feels like things get stuck in my throat."
  • Chronic joint pain not related to an injury
  • Tight muscles and joint pain that is not healing after therapy
  • "When it gets cold or I’m stressed, my fingers and toes go all white or blue, and they feel numb until they warm up again".
  • Fatigue or sleepy after a delicious, nourishing meal
  • "My joints hurt and swell up, especially my knees and fingers. It feels stiff and sore like I've been working out too hard, even though I haven’t."

Cleans and detox are great, but they should be done right. If cleansing or detoxing is not done right, it can release toxins and heavy metals into the system, causing you to feel great at first. And exercise too.

Yeah, exercise is excellent, but it could also exacerbate your pain, causing your body cells to create more toxins than they can remove.

We can help you do it right!
