Jon’s main focus is on diet, detoxification, and nutrition. He has been involved in the food industry, and later the health food industry, for most of his adult life. His interest in food started at a very young age. When he was 6 years old he was diagnosed as a type I diabetic and food began to be an important part of his understanding of his health and wellbeing at that time. Later at the age of 35 his father died of colorectal cancer and congestive heart failure. This life changing event has led him to be even more interested in how food is important to the body and staying well within a toxic world. Going through these life events inspired him to return to school and obtain his CNS and CNHP. They are certifications in natural wellness from Trinity School of Natural Health.
Jon specializes in custom diets: rotation, blood type, metabolic typing and Nu Yu II. These are all used in achieving weight loss. In addition he creates designer diets for each individual person according to all of their metabolic markers. He will help you achieve your weight loss goal, incorporating a healthy diet that matches the individual. Zyto technology is used to assess food allergy and sensitivities. A rotation diet can be designed based on your results. Jon’s desire is to keep the body in equilibrium using detoxification and cleansing methods to optimize functional wellness. Cooking classes are offered to further educate people to strive for the same dedication.
His passion is to make one understand their wellness, the surrounding toxicities and maintaining an exceptional healthy lifestyle.

Gail Eiceman, RN, BS, CCN, has been in the healthcare profession for over twenty-five years. She began her career as a Pediatric Nurse after receiving her nursing degree from Chester County Hospital. She was recognized by being granted the Outstanding Award in Pediatric Nursing. Following nursing school, Gail’s experience was broadened by serving as head nurse in an intensive care coronary unit, emergency room ,and various other disciplines of nursing.
A personal illness led Gail to investigate the integration of her medical experience with the benefits of natural medicine. As her desire to bridge the gap between traditional medicine with natural medicine grew, Gail sought further education, obtaining numerous certifications and degrees, including obtaining her doctorate in Naturopathy.
She also received an advanced nursing degree and a board certification as a Clinical Nutritionist (“CCN”). A CCN assesses a person’s nutritional needs to achieve normal physiological function. Assessment includes the use of appropriate tests and observations such as case history, anthropomorphic measurements, physical signs, laboratory tests, and nutrition/lifestyle analysis to determine an educational nutrition program. Assessment also provides the basis for referral to a licensed physician, or other health care professional. She also has certifications as a Legal Nurse Consultant. She has received education and training from some of the leading experts in the world in the field of Integrated Health, among them Hans Nieper MD, Bernard Jenson, the father of natural medicine, Abrams Hoffer MD, Carl Ruffer MD, Bernard Rimland MD, and Jeff Bland PhD.
