From the practitioner: About My Practice

I work with you to find your optimal expression of health, focusing on the body, mind and spirit to support you on your path. In addition to optimising nutrition and gut health, I explore how your life history plays a role in your present state of health. As an NHS Consultant Rheumatologist, I have particular expertise in autoimmune conditions but I am happy to review people with many other chronic health conditions, as I have been dual trained in General Medicine and Rheumatology. In an effort to help manage the effects of chronic stress on illness, I am also a certified biodynamic craniosacral therapist and find this integrative approach very effective to support healing. I am based in Exeter but do see patients online as required.
