Many extended health plans cover Registered Dietitian services. Check your plan to confirm coverage.
Insurance receipts are available upon request. For packages, payment is made upfront, and split receipts are issued after each session. Receipts can be submitted to your provider for reimbursement.
-
While we do not direct bill, 2 types of receipts are available upon payment for reimbursement:
Master Package Receipt: Automatically sent once full payment is received, showing your complete package. We recommend submitting this first — it works for both Health Spending Account and Extended Health plans. Individual Proof-of-Attendance receipts follow on a per-session basis.
Proof-of-Attendance Receipts: Available upon request, individual session receipts including our RD licence # validating that you showed up for each nutrition session in your pre-paid package are available after each appointment upon request.
To be very clear: Receipts are issued as-is — dates and fees cannot be modified. If you have benefits expiring soon, we recommend to purchase a package, submit the master receipt right away, and book ahead. We also offer shorter appointment formats to help you fit in sessions before your coverage resets.

It depends on the type of session.
Baseline testing is 1 hr where the testing portion is about 20-25 min, with the remaining for interpretation.
Nutrition assessment is 1 hr (online or in person) which happens about 1-4 weeks ideally after the baseline testing session.
Follow-ups happen in about a month. If you’re doing quick retests it typically takes 10 min, whereas full follow ups are 30 min.
Exercise assessment & personal training sessions are 1 hr.

Every body is different, and many factors will influence when you receive results. We’re here to guide you with data and personalized strategies built over 10+ years of dietitian training and experience, but what you put into it (literally and figuratively), you get out of it.
But as a general rule of thumb, you can aim for ~1 lb fat loss per week, and about 1 lb muscle gain per month. Now this may not translate to exact numbers on the scale, actually it’s usually about half that if you’re going through body recomposition. And this is if you’re pretty focused, and most ppl need at 6-8 week start-up period before habits really stick.
