What is nutritional therapy?

It’s much more than just what you eat (although this is important).

Using the tools of functional medicine, nutritional therapists aim to uncover the root cause of your health concerns. Treating symptoms just isn’t enough. Most of the time our symptoms are connected through an underlying cause. Bringing the body back into balance involves addressing this underlying ‘root’ cause.

Since every person is unique, what is nourishing to someone may be detrimental to the next. This is why there is no such thing as a quick one-size-fits-all solution, or a ‘perfect’ diet.

Creating real change that encourages your body’s natural healing ability means understanding the story of your health journey. As a nutritional therapist, I will examine your health history, paying close attention to your current and past symptoms, but also taking into consideration stress, environmental factors, work and life events, and of course diet and lifestyle. Because everything is connected.

How does it work?

Initial consultations take around 60-90 minutes. I need to get to know you and your story! We will work together to help you achieve your health goals through small actionable steps that work for you.

Changing your body’s environment to encourage it’s natural healing ability will also take time - that’s how you know you are creating outcomes that will last. Because of this, I have created 3-month and 6-month packages that will allow you to work on the root cause of your issues and feel the effects.
