DIETETICS
Dietetics that fits the way you actually eat and train.
Registered Dietitians who give you the plan you'll keep, not the one that reads well on paper.
OVERVIEW
What does a Registered Dietitian do?
Registered Dietitians (RDs) in BC are regulated by the College of Health and Care Professionals of BC. The title is protected — only an RD can call themselves a dietitian. The work is grounded in clinical nutrition science and translated into food you actually eat.
At Launch Rehab, dietetics is most often paired with rehab — supporting tissue recovery, sport-specific fuelling, weight goals tied to joint pain, and chronic-condition management (diabetes, IBS, lipid management). Sessions are 1-on-1 with a written plan you leave with.
Common reasons clients see our RD: recovering from injury or surgery, training for an event, managing IBS or other GI symptoms, body composition goals, and prediabetes or type-2 diabetes management.
Our approach covers mindful eating and intuitive eating principles, practical sports nutrition for training and competition, and sustainable habit building around balanced nutrition. We also support specialized needs including carb loading and running fueling strategies for endurance athletes, as well as plant-based eating plans that meet protein and micronutrient targets.
