What to expect for my initial consultation?

This is how we get the big picture—and what makes our wellness plans truly bespoke before recommending a supplement stack. The initial consultation process will be outlined in the preliminary consultation. We will obtain your history, complete a physical exam, and provide recommendations for your personal needs and goals.

Is this evidence-based?

Yes. Recommendations are grounded in biochemistry, physiology, and peer-reviewed research, interpreted through laboratory data and clinical context. Evidence informs decision-making; individual physiology guides implementation.

How is this different from advice I could get at a vitamin store?

Retail supplement recommendations are typically product-driven and generalized. Our approach is assessment-driven and physiology-specific, informed by laboratory data, clinical observation, medication review, and pattern recognition. Recommendations are selected to avoid duplication, excess, or interactions and are dosed intentionally—not generically.

How are dietary supplements regulated by the FDA?

Dietary supplements are regulated by the FDA under a different framework than prescription medications and are more closely regulated like foods than drugs. Unlike medications, which are designed to directly alter specific biochemical mechanisms to treat or manage disease, dietary supplements are intended to support and enhance the body’s normal physiological functions. Visit FDA.gov to learn more.

Can supplements be dangerous?

Yes. When used improperly, dietary supplements can carry risks, including contamination, inconsistent potency, drug–nutrient interactions, excessive dosing, and nutrient accumulation. While supplements are generally lower risk than prescription medications, they should still be used thoughtfully. Many healthcare professionals receive limited formal training in dietary supplementation. That’s where personalized guidance from a qualified supplement specialist comes into place.

Does the Origin Method sell dietary supplements?

No. The Origin Method doesn’t manufacture or sell supplements —only provides educational guidance and occasional free samples. All recommendations are brand-agnostic and based on clinical need, efficacy, and budget. Clients are encouraged to purchase supplements through trusted, independent pharmacies or practitioner-aligned retailers. We use photos of supplements for educational purposes.

Do you offer IV therapy?

IV therapy is optional and not administered by The Origin Method. We may provide IV formulation, IM injection recommendations including MIC & LIC and protocol guidance as an advanced complement to a supplement regimen. Administration is performed by independent, licensed medical providers selected by the client.

Is the Origin Method in-home only?

Not exclusively. An in-person studio is coming soon for clients who prefer the suite setting, do not have an appropriate private space for an in-home visit, or are traveling from outside our concierge service area.
Regardless of which space you choose, yours or ours, both offer a luxury experience for clients’ individual preference. Walk-ins are not guaranteed available unless confirmed by giving us a call or when publicly announced.

How often should I schedule follow-up sessions?

A minimum of three follow-up assessments is recommended. Additional laboratory testing and therapeutic recommendations may be provided as clinically indicated. A comprehensive reassessment is required annually.
