Nutritional Help and Supplements at Sienna Spine and Wellness: Fuel Your Active Summerlin Life
At Sienna Spine and Wellness in Summerlin, Las Vegas, we know that true health goes beyond physical treatments. What you eat powerfully affects how you feel, heal, and age. For our active 55+ clients, good nutrition is essential for maintaining energy, managing inflammation, supporting strong bones and muscles, and recovering from activities. That’s why personalized Nutritional Help and guidance on Supplements are key parts of our holistic approach. We help you fuel your body optimally so you can fully enjoy your vibrant Las Vegas lifestyle.
Why Nutrition is Crucial After 55
Our nutritional needs change as we get older. Our metabolism might slow down, and absorbing nutrients can become less efficient. Active adults have specific needs:
Sustained Energy: The right foods provide the fuel needed for daily activities, exercise, and recovery.
Muscle Health: Getting enough protein helps fight age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia). It’s also vital for repairing tissues after exercise.
Bone Strength: Calcium, Vitamin D, and other nutrients are crucial for keeping bones strong and reducing fracture risk.
Managing Inflammation: Many age-related issues involve chronic inflammation. An anti-inflammatory diet (rich in fruits, vegetables, healthy fats) can help control this.
Joint Comfort: Certain nutrients, like omega-3 fatty acids, support joint health and can ease arthritis symptoms.
Brain Function: Nutrients like B vitamins and healthy fats support memory and focus.
Immune Defense: A nutrient-rich diet strengthens your immune system.

Integrated Care: Nutrition supports all our other services. Good food helps you get the most from Chiropractic Therapy, Massage Therapy, and Exercise Rehab.
Smart Use of Supplements
While food comes first, supplements can sometimes fill nutritional gaps or provide extra support. This might be helpful if your needs are higher due to activity or age, or if absorption is an issue. However, supplements should be used wisely.
Our approach to supplements at Sienna Spine and Wellness is careful and targeted:
Need-Based: We don’t push unnecessary pills. Recommendations are based on your assessment, potential deficiencies (sometimes identified through testing), or specific goals like bone or joint support.
Quality Matters: We recommend professional-grade supplements. These are tested for purity and potency, ensuring you get what you pay for and your body can use it effectively. Quality varies greatly in store-bought brands.
Common Considerations: Based on your needs, we might discuss supplements like Vitamin D, Calcium, Magnesium, Omega-3s (Fish Oil), Glucosamine/Chondroitin, Probiotics, or B Vitamins.
Safety First: We always check for potential interactions with any medications you take. Your safety is our top priority.
