What Is Nutritional Therapy?
Nutritional Therapy is the application of nutrition science in the promotion of health, individual care and optimum wellbeing. Registered Nutritional Therapists use a wide range of tools to assess and identify potential nutritional imbalances and understand how these may contribute to an individual’s symptoms and health concerns. This approach allows them to work with individuals to address nutritional balance and help support the body towards maintaining health. Nutritional Therapy is recognised as a complementary medicine and is relevant for individuals with chronic conditions, as well as those looking for support to enhance their health and wellbeing.

Nutritional therapy uses food and nutritional supplements to give the body the nutrients it needs to thrive, while investigating the foods that may be causing adverse effects. Following a nutritional therapy programme does not mean you have to cut out all the foods you enjoy! It’s about making simple, practical changes that become a way of life; to put you back in control and give you a natural balanced focus. I will work with you to devise a realistic programme that will help you reach your health goals. The approach is personal and tailored to your specific needs and adjusts to your environment.
