Allison Walker, MS, RD, LD, CLT
HEY THERE!!! I am Allison Walker. I am an integrative registered dietitian, certified LEAP therapist, Pilates instructor, former D1 strength & conditioning coach, and speaker. You might ask... "What in the world is an INTEGRATIVE DIETITIAN". It means I am dedicated to finding the root cause of your pain, your inflammation, and your symptoms. Key word is ROOT CAUSE! I help teens truly learn about their own personal health. As a former coach and athlete, I do have a sweet spot for helping my female athletes!
I enjoy every aspect of my private practice! I have a dedicated passion to teaching in all areas of sports performance, fitness, and nutrition. It has always been my desire to bring nutrition and fitness together. You cannot have one without the other and obtain your ultimate goal in sports, fitness, or health. I have always lived by my own personal rule to be the example of what I teach others on a daily basis.
