Information for Patients

Description of My Practice

I am a Nutritional Therapist who looks for the root causes and maintaining factors underlying each client's health problem. My mission is to educate and inspire clients to acquire a deep understanding of their body's innate capacity to heal. Any supplements or advice given is directed by evidence based medicine or my clinical expererience.

Type of Care I Provide

• Nutrition Professional

From the practitioner: About My Practice

I am a Nutritional Therapist and Homeopath working according to the Functional Medicine model which means that I look for the underlying causes, contributors or triggers to any health problem rather than just address the symptoms alone. My focus is always on the unique set of circumstances that has set the pattern of ill health. I create an individually targeted therapy programme directed by evidence-based medicine and my clinical experience. I arrange functional lab tests including nutrigenomics tresting.

From the practitioner: What Patients Can Expect

New patients complete a detailed questionnaire prior to coming; a first visit takes approximately an hour and a half during which I learn their story, their history and their diet/lifestyle pattern. We then formulate a plan setting their goals for health and I suggest whichever tests may be appropriate to assist us and the dietary and lifestyle amendments they can begin with before results are in. Follow up to this appointment is generally within 2 -4 weeks for post-lab test report and implementation of supplement and/or other therapy protocol depending on results.
