Biography

“ Hi there,
It's a mine field trying to find the right support when you feel you've already been down every avenue and you're at your wits end. Or perhaps, you just don't want to go down the conventional route any longer? If this is the case then Nutritional intervention is without doubt the way to go.
I am a Registered Nutritional Therapist with BANT (British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy) and CNHC (Complimentary Natural Healthcare Council) and qualified in 2012. I use the 'Functional Medicine' approach which is about looking at the patient as an individual, considering the biochemical imbalances in the body and discovering the root cause of the problem, (rather than treating just the symptoms). We will work together in ensuring that we guide you back to optimum health and you will walk away with an optimum nutrition plan to follow. This may include a supplementation programme to support your health over a short period of time to get you back on the road to recovery.
I also work with a number of Labs to offer diagnostic testing which is very helpful in determining what is going on in the body and being able to rule out certain 'conditions'. This includes blood, stool, saliva or urine samples.

Nutrigenetics is the study of personalized nutrition based on your genetic make-up and I am a certified DNA Practitioner. With a simple non-invasive saliva swab we can look at your predisposition to possible health risks related to your specific genes. We can then make a holistic assessment of health risks, based on environmental factors (diet and lifestyle) that need to be considered. I have used this many times in my clinic, and my patients have found it very useful, particularly with weight management and overall health.

I look forward to working with you :)
