Nutritional therapy explained
What Does Nutritional Therapy Involve?
Nutritional Therapy uses a science based evidence approach to help achieve optimal health and wellbeing.
Functional Medicine considers how aspects of a persons past and current status might be impacting their health.
How Does Nutritional Therapy Work?
Nutritional Therapy is recognised as a complementary medicine.
To support you in your general health, wellness and performance goal I would be looking at ways to ensure good quality in your diet as well as sufficient quantity to sustain and maintain your goals.
For individuals with chronic conditions and a more specific health goal then I would incorporate a wider range of more specialised tools to assess and identify any potential nutritional imbalances, deficiencies and dysfunction.
Nutritional Therapy is not a replacement for medical advice. I am not licensed as a healthcare professional and therefore services do not include treatment or diagnosis of medical conditions. Before engaging in my support there is a requirement for you to consult with your licensed medical practitioner to review your ability to participate in my services. With their approval I am happy to support you alongside to enable a comprehensive and rounded approach to managing your health.
