A delicate balance of nutrients is required to ensure the effective functioning of the human body and if this becomes imbalanced, the body often responds symptomatically which may lead to more serious or chronic health conditions. Nutritional therapy provides a holistic and complementary approach to healthcare based on recent and reputable scientific literature. Through using this evidence-based platform, we aim to identify the underlying biochemical imbalances and root causes that may be contributing to your current symptoms. Once identified, a personalised diet and lifestyle programme is developed to meet the unique requirements of our clients, where in some instances, functional lab testing and supplementation may be advisable.

Nutritional Therapists build personalised diet and lifestyle programmes based on recent and reputable scientific literature, adopting an evidence-based approach. In Nutritional Therapy there is no ‘one size fits all’. The aim is to restore balance and promote harmony in the body with a tailored programme to meet the clients unique requirements.

Throughout my own healing journey I have tried, tested, and been influenced by many different modalities and philosophies related to health and wellness. I have learnt that as people, we are complex and unique, yet we like to think of ourselves as the same (or at least, similar!). For example, as women many of us take over the counter medicine, unaware of the fact that the majority of medical trials are only tested on white males. This also applies to diet and exercise regimes. Many popular programmes that circulate in the health and wellness space are again, tested and tailored to white men. I’ve seen this cause many women (including myself) serious hormonal imbalances and gut dysfunction when following these programmes. So many of us are left confused, frustrated, and overwhelmed by the mixed messages we are being fed in the media about what ‘health’ is, and what it takes to be healthy.

I believe that due our complexity as individuals, no ‘one size’ approach will ever fit all. Our environment, life stressors, diet, finances, history, genetics etc will give us all our own unique blueprint and in order to thrive, a diet and lifestyle plan needs to be tailored specifically for you. Yes, the scientific research is important and thankfully, more is being carried out on women nowadays. However, the main goal is to look deeply into what makes you you, and to cater to your specific needs by considering the broader perspective.

It is never just one thing that leads our body into dysfunction. For this reason, I practice a holistic approach, so in addition to tailoring a programme based on the most recent and reputable nutritional science, I offer practical advice, tools, and coaching around breathing practices, meditation, mindfulness, exercise, yoga, and spiritual and psychological wellbeing.

As a yoga teacher, I offer clients the option of 1-1 yoga sessionsto support them in obtaining a deeper mind-body connection through the physical practice of yoga. I passionately believe that yoga is for every body and that modifications and adaptations can be implemented to suit all abilities, and every body shape, so total beginners are always welcomed and supported.

Common symptoms of a hormonal imbalance:

• Are you feeling wired but tired?

• Struggling to calm down before bedtime, or a second wind keeps you up late?

• Difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep?

• Increased anxiousness and worrying?

• Intense mood swings - anger, rage, irritability, tearfulness?

• Memory lapses or feeling distracted?

• Sugar cravings?

• Weight gain, particularly around the middle?

• Skin conditions - spots, rashes etc

• Unexplained high blood pressure or rapid heart beat?

• High blood sugar?

• Indigestion, ulcers, or reflux?

• Irregular menstrual cycle?

• Decreased fertility?

• Low or unusually high sex drive?

• Fatigue?

• PCOS diagnosis?

• PMS or PMDD diagnosis?

Have you just read this list and are very much relating to some (or many) of these symptoms? Well, you’re not alone, many women are struggling with these symptoms in silence particularly as they are transitioning through one of the 4 cycles we experience as females - from puberty, to menstruation, to perimenopause, and finally menopause. My wish is to support women through these inevitable transitions and then of course, throughout the course of each stage of life.

Please note, the list above barely scratches the surface when it comes to the variety of symptoms we can experience when there is an unrecognised/undiagnosed hormonal imbalance present. So whether you relate to one or many, it is time to take action to bring your hormones back into their natural rhythm - I focus on diet and lifestyle recommendations specific to the infradian cycle (which is a fancy name for a female menstrual cycle).
