Healing By The Forkful: Personalized Nutrition and Self-Care for Women in Pain

If you’re navigating chronic pain, inflammation, migraines, or menopause symptoms and feel like you’ve tried everything—this one’s for you. Healing By The Forkful, based at The Wellness Collective in Hanover, MA, offers a science-backed, compassionate approach to women’s self-care, blending Mediator Release Testing (MRT), Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT), and customized self-care strategies. At its core, this practice is about helping women feel good in their bodies again.

Reclaiming Health Through Evidence-Based Nutrition

Healing By The Forkful was born out of necessity—and personal pain. Founder Royletta knows what it’s like to live in a body that hurts. After being hit by a car in 2014, she spent years battling inflammation, fatigue, and frustration with mainstream healthcare. It wasn’t until she discovered MRT and MNT that she finally found relief. Now, she helps women do the same.

At Healing By The Forkful, the focus is on uncovering your body’s unique food and chemical triggers, building customized nutrition plans, and guiding you toward sustainable wellness. This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s individualized, respectful, and incredibly effective.

What Services Are Offered?

Each service offered at Healing By The Forkful is tailored to women dealing with chronic health concerns and looking for long-term solutions:

• Mediator Release Testing (MRT): Identify foods and chemicals triggering inflammation, migraines, pain, and more.
• Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT): Build a personalized plan to reduce symptoms, increase energy, and support hormonal balance.
• Custom Self-Care Plans: From meal strategies to lifestyle tweaks, Royletta helps you create a self-care routine that works for your real life.
• Support for Life Transitions: Whether you’re managing menopause, stress, or mobility issues, you’re supported every step of the way.

Helping Women Feel Strong, Heard, and Empowered

Clients at Healing By The Forkful often say they feel heard for the first time. Chronic symptoms like fatigue, bloating, and joint pain become more manageable. Energy returns. Mood lifts. And most importantly, confidence grows.

Here’s what real clients have to say:

“I’m sleeping better, my inflammation is down, brain fog is gone, and I’ve even lost weight. I’m finally starting to feel like myself again.” – DW

“I used to crave sugar constantly. Now, I’m reading food labels and making better choices. My arthritis, digestion, and fibromyalgia symptoms have improved so much.” – Gail R

Self-Care Is Science + Soul

At Healing By The Forkful, self-care isn’t about bubble baths and checklists. It’s about learning your body’s needs and honoring them. That could mean cutting out a trigger food that’s causing you pain or finally having a plan that helps you feel like YOU again.

Women are often told to “just deal with it.” This practice says the opposite: You deserve to feel heard. You deserve to feel well. You deserve to feel good.

Creating a Safe Space for Real Healing

Royletta is the sole provider at Healing By The Forkful, and her approach is as human-centered as it gets. She takes the time to listen, learn your story, and build a plan that supports you without shame or overwhelm. Appointments are unhurried, educational, and full of compassion.

Whether you’re visiting in-person in Hanover or connecting virtually, every client is treated with the respect, clarity, and care they deserve.
