Hi, I’m Patty McManamee.
My personal health journey started over 20 years ago when I was struggling with acne, chronic back pain, low self-esteem, GI issues, and sciatica. I went to conventional doctors, chiropractors, and acupuncturists, but continued to experience negative health. My chronic pain led me to feeling hopeless and powerless, and I felt as if I was headed toward living my later years in a wheelchair. And then I found natural health. I empowered myself with information and knowledge that changed my life forever. I no longer live with chronic pain and negative health symptoms. Now, I’m full of empowerment, vibrancy, and freedom, and living my life fully.
Over the past 20 years, I have learned about natural remedies for health using foods, herbs, supplements, and mind-body therapies. This inspired me to go to school and become an Integrative Nutrition Health Coach. I continued my studies and received my Masters in Clinical Nutrition and Integrative Health and became board certified as a nutrition specialist. I want to share this information with the world and let others know they too can change their lives.
I would be remiss in not mentioning my favorite career of motherhood. I have been able to raise my 3 sons without relying on over-the-counter medications, pharmaceutical drugs, or antibiotics. I relied on whole, nutrient-dense meals, plant-based medicines, and lots of love and connection. They are thriving in school, athletics, and mental health. In today’s environment, this is a great accomplishment.
Nutrition and lifestyle interventions are the cornerstone to wellness. It is the things you do and the thoughts you have everyday that have the greatest impact on your health.
Work with me and empower yourself to greater health!
My Approach
I love to empower people to take charge of their own health outcomes through nutrition, stress management, sleep, movement, and mind-body connection. Health and wellness is about feeling whole, balanced and connected. It’s about being able to engage in life fully with energy and purpose. It’s about experiencing emotional balance in order to move through time with joy, motivation, and resilience.
Most of my clients come to me to lose weight, and we often discover other health issues that are causing the weight loss resistance, such as, chronic inflammation, chronic stress, toxic overload, and gastrointestinal issues. It’s my goal to understand someone's whole health story and discover the root cause of some of their health issues. I provide individualized treatment plans for each of my clients, and I allow them to decide what they are ready to take on with my support, expert guidance, and counseling.
The body is amazing in every way. It has an innate desire and ability to heal and maintain balance when given positive signaling through nutrient-dense foods, positive mindset, healthy relationships, love, connection, movement, and sleep. These types of healthy signaling allow the body to remain in the parasympathetic arm of the Autonomic Nervous System of resting, digesting, and healing. Ultimately, the body wants to feel safe and secure in order to thrive and grow. This is where health happens.
My mission is to educate, guide, and inspire others to take charge of their own health through individualized nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle therapies that help regain balance. Let’s get to the root cause of your health issues and find true recovery. Health is a journey. You don’t just become healthy. It takes daily dedication, time, and energy to live a healthy lifestyle and when you live a healthy lifestyle, you feel empowered, energetic, and well.
If you’re ready to take charge of your health and make a difference on how you feel, set up a 15-minute discovery call with me.

What People Are Saying
“I came to Patty to help me lose weight, establish skills to maintain a healthy lifestyle, and support for healthy eyes through nutrition and exercise. She provided me with a binder and session notes to reinforce our discussions in person, allowing me to have easy reference points that could have been lost in my memory. They have been helpful in reminding me about making good food choices and other self-care items. While working with Patty, I have been able to lose weight in a healthy way through making healthy food choices, exercise, and physical, emotional, and spiritual self-care. Her experience with food and life in general has been dispensed with love, kindness, and honesty. Her knowledge and teaching ability have been instrumental in helping me build a firm foundation based on healthy food and other lifestyle changes.
Patty has been an inspiration and guide in my quest to improve my life in nutrition and education of current healthy self-care. She has been open and honest in her recommendations for me each session and requested the same from me as I participated in our work together.”

“Patty guided me to work on my personal health goals through helping me understand that I am worthy of love and loving myself. She taught me to utilize self-care methods, such as, journaling, meditation, regular exercise, breathing, sleep, and nourishing my body with good foods and superfoods. She taught me that gaining my health was a process and a journey of unraveling 36 years of habits created out of an internal need to survive with whatever was happening in my life. She always told me it was okay if I fell or returned to old habits, but most importantly, she taught me to just try again and get back on my path. Patty is amazing, kind, and understanding. She wished for me to accomplish my goal even more than I believed or wanted to. In doing so, she instilled in me a constant mantra to love myself. This has been such a challenge for me over my life. Patty’s openness and loving nature facilitated a space where I could just be myself and understand that in my “failings”, I was not alone. She reminded me that she and everyone around me experiences the same or similar things at different points. She always reminded me to treat myself well. I just think that this experience came at a time that was so important to me. It was as though the universe was fully aware of what was to come and knew that I would never survive without the tools to cope. I believe that the self-awareness that these tools and exercises brought saved my life. I’m thankful for the opportunity to open my life to someone like Patty, who has shown me the presence of grace in my life. I would recommend Patty, and actually have, to anyone I know who is looking to improve their life through nutrition and lifestyle therapies.”

“My experience with Patty far exceeded my expectations. I signed up for six months of 1:1 sessions with Patty and it was worth every penny. Not only did I lose multiple pounds and inches, I also learned how to fuel my body with the proper nutrients it needs. I also learned that my weight gain was not only due to the foods I consume but also due to how I manage my stress. Patty spent additional hours outside of our sessions to research the best foods to assist in reducing my inflammation and stress while helping me eliminate the extra weight I was carrying around. She made me understand that my actual “number” was not a great way to gauge my worth. I feel my understanding of food and why I eat certain foods are much clearer now due to my sessions with Patty. In addition, she took the time to explore my health story and journey. Patty researched many ways for me to incorporate what I liked to eat as well as introduced me to many food groups I had previously cut out due to the latest fad. She is truly engaged with her clients and is able to meet her clients where they currently stand and helps guide them to where they want to land.”
