Why Nutritional Therapy?
Nutritional Therapy is much more than just dietary advice!! Having spent several years working under the guidance and supervision of a celebrated Functional Medicine Practitioner (Institute of Functional Medicine), I work ‘functionally’ which means that I aim to identify the root cause of symptoms or health conditions. I look holistically at my clients, making connections between symptoms and putting the pieces of their health journey puzzle together for them.
This joined-up thinking and way of supporting the body is hugely beneficial and something not offered in current allopathic medicine.
The process involves taking a very detailed health history over 75 minutes, creating a timeline of events, establishing known or potential triggers, and identifying mediators prolonging the symptoms/condition.
After the initial consultation, I will provide an action plan, encompassing:
-
dietary guidance
-
lifestyle advice
-
any recommended supplements
-
functional tests if relevant
-
helpful handouts
-
next steps and follow ups

Testing is never required in order to work together and some tests can be done with your GP or via the NHS.
Supplements:
Supplements are not always necessary and of course are never ‘required’. They do however provide the opportunity to offer therapeutic doses of specific nutrients, in cases where nutrient deficiencies may be playing a role in a client’s symptoms.
Unless there are genetic or individual reasons, supplements are always short term, with a specific role to play. Discounts are available.
