We are all unique individuals, in our genetic make up, in our physiology and biochemistry, in our diet and lifestyle (historically and currently) as well as our thought and behaviour patterns. Therefore, the one-size-fits-all approach simply does not work when it comes to Nutritional Therapy or any other type of healthcare.

 

One-to-one personalised consultations take you as a whole into account. Emotions as well as physical imbalances are considered and the aim is to discover what the underlying causes are for loss of wellbeing. This is done by focusing on the different systems of the body that are influenced by nutritional status and lifestyle. This model for health care is called Functional Medicine and your story is absolutely central to the process.

​

During the initial consultation of your programme, I will take time to understand your case history and the timeline of events that has led you up to this point. After establishing your goals, we will plan a health optimisation programme together that is practical and achievable for you. There will be a focus on making long term changes rather than quick fixes in order to achieve lasting results.  

 

In your nutrition consultation, advice is tailored to suit you as an individual with a focus on developing an enjoyment of eating ‘real foods’ and exploring food diversity. 

 

I often recommend functional tests which can help achieve positive outcomes in less time with more targeted interventions. Often clients become more motivated to stick to their personalised health plan when they can see in black and white what might be at the root of their symptoms.

​

The tests I most commonly recommend in my clinic include: 

​

• DNA testing

• Cyrex antibody testing

• Viral screening

• Total thyroid screening

• Comprehensive stool analysis (including assessment of your gut microbiome)

• Functional blood chemistries

• Nutritional status profiles

• Urinary organic acid analysis​

• Environmental Toxin and Mycotoxin analysis

• Heavy Metals testing

​

Nutritional therapy works alongside conventional medicine and should not be seen as an alternative to medical advice. It’s always a case of working with GPs and/or other healthcare providers to ensure you receive the most appropriate, safe and well rounded care.
