Duane Law, C.A. – Los Angeles, CA
I am an acupuncturist and have practiced in West Los Angeles for the last eight years. I’m writing you to recommend the services of my associate, Kaaren Jordan.
Kaaren is one of an unusual breed: she is a nutritionist who specializes in the dietary treatment of chronic degenerative and functional complaints. In my experience, many nutritionists prefer to avoid the difficulties involved in educating and retraining patients to feed themselves better. Many patients don’t want to undertake the changes in their routines necessary to address their conditions through diet. However, for those who do, Ms. Jordan’s work can be invaluable.
I have utilized her services as a consultant: when a patient is motivated she will identify nutritional problems and solutions, create menus, and even teach people how to cook! She uses acupressure to help her clients through the inevitable changes that dietary work entails, and to support therapeutic interventions performed by other professionals.
Again, not every patient is ready for this. But in cases where patients are prepared to learn how their everyday habits contribute to their complaints and are ready to undertake a course of profound change, her advice and support are invaluable.
