This is exactly where we dive deep into the signals your body has been given you. I see the body as a movie that ‘develops’ over the years. Before the disease comes on the surface, the body has probably giving you some ‘signals’ maybe months, maybe years in advance. Tracing back to where things started gives me the chance to come close to the underlying rootcause (s).
Based on this I’m able to advise specific laboratory tests, so we gain insights on the missing puzzle pieces of your health. You’ll receive a detailed treatment plan and already tools to directly implement in your life.

Nova Schiferli | Clinical Certified Dietitian
It all began with a simple question:
What are we missing in the healthcare industry?
In my second year of studying Clinical Nutrition, the conventional wisdom didn't seem to add up. Despite learning about the cellular impact of foods and the rise of chronic diseases, the solution offered was too simplistic – eat your veggies, proteins, and avoid alcohol and sugars. I questioned why, if it was so straightforward, the numbers of health issues persisted.
My interest in psychology, cultivated since age 15, became a turning point. I realized we were dealing with behavioral change, and the simplicity of dietary advice overlooked this crucial aspect. Combining psychology with clinical nutrition seemed logical, yet I found no one in my field sharing this perspective.
Realizing I was on my own, I delved into Positive Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and researched the Science of Wellbeing at Yale University. Simultaneously, I worked for a doctor, crafting health plans based on lab work for three years.
Now, at 26, having assisted over 600 clients, I've observed what works and what doesn't. My practice aims to cut through the information overload. Health is simple, but understanding it in a society inundated with information isn't. To find what works for you, visualize your body's current state, arm yourself with impactful information and tools, and employ psychology and habit blocking for sustainable changes.

We discuss how you grew up with food, stressful periods of your life, how you sleep, the health of your skin, nails, gut and specific questions: if you’re cold often, how your energy levels fluctuate etc.

FAQs

Quality of time is one of my key values. That’s why your very first visit is 60 minutes long. I use this time to get to know you at a deeper level, asking you questions about your genetics, health history, lifestyle, and health goals that most doctor’s don’t get the time for. Including your mental and emotional well-being is another key value of my practice, since science has proven the two go hand-in-hand when it comes to health.

Depending on the provider of your Health Insurance, consultations can often be covered for approximately 70 - 100 euros. Invoices are always charged the day itself and laboratory must be paid the moment it’s ordered on your name. If you want to know how much your insurance is covering I advise to contact them yourself.

Yes I do. We live in a time where online consultations can just be as effective as in real-life. There are even possibilities to sent the lab work to your country. Please email me for more information on this.
