UK registered, accredited naturopath and nutritional therapist.
My clinical practice, Modern Naturopathy, combines naturopathic methods with evidence based nutritional science and the benefits of cutting edge functional testing, to provide personalised holistic care through natural medicine. Think of it as your ‘natural health GP’, a place to come for you and your family’s health needs, and to investigate and support you with everyday complaints, and more chronic conditions.
I support you with time to listen, take an in-depth health history, and offer advice and the tools to manage your, and your loved ones, health. I can also offer any relevant testing and analysis, to get to the heart of the issue, and if recommended, a referral to my network of professional colleagues.
I seek to support the whole person, listen to their individual story, and create a potential to reach the root cause of ill health.
I utilise many modalities, including nutrition and nutraceuticals, nutrigenomics, homeopathy, aromatherapy, herbal medicine and mycotherapy. Having completed the Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice training with the Institute of Functional Medicine (www.ifm.org) I am also practiced in functional laboratory testing and integrated Functional Medicine, moving away from the disease-centric model of treatment, towards personalised care.
Clients can expect a naturopathic systems biology–based approach to their first line, and future proofing, care. They can expect all round intuitive support, with referrals to colleagues in specialised fields including acupuncture, reflexology, massage therapy, and also medical doctors and mental health practitioners.
With many years of experience in the naturopathic health world, a large network of well respected colleagues, and a family of my own, I am in a unique position to help you meet your health needs by providing natural remedies and strategies for your health symptoms, and find the root cause of any chronic conditions, leading to a better health outcome, free of pain and medications where possible, and full of vitality.
Who comes to see me? Anyone who needs support and answers. Perhaps you have a nasty cough you can’t shake? Or perhaps your child has an earache, or a tummy bug? Or perhaps you are looking to lose weight and just feel better, and what you’ve always done isn’t working for you anymore? Or there is something more chronic? An autoimmune condition? Unexplained gut issues? Maybe mental health support is needed? We’ll tackle your immediate relief of symptoms first, then we can work on improving long term health over time. My clients lead how much ongoing support they require, or not. It’s very important I work in partnership with my clients, listening to what they need.
As you can see, naturopathy is not just for chronic physical and mental health conditions and gut health (although it really is the answer to these :)), but is for every day first aid care too. I am here to teach you the tools to keep you and your family well on a daily basis, so that you eventually don’t need that chronic care. I really encourage little and ‘as needed’ interventions rather than waiting for something more chronic that takes many sessions to try and fix. This is really where that ‘natural health GP’ description really makes sense!
My expertise lies in searching for the reason underlying your symptoms, and recommending natural remedies that are effective for you, and any relevant tests that give you the information you need. No more guessing and googling. I can offer you practical, effective first line and lifestyle remedies for any number of complaints and issues, including common childhood illnesses, digestive issues, infections, general first aid, headaches, hormonal imbalances, weight management, fatigue, food intolerances, mental health issues, auto-immunity, and other health complaint you may have, plus trusted, effective referrals. With the option of functional testing, it’s possible to arm you with in depth, personalised results that will shape your health journey.
Where tests are available on the NHS, I can supply a referral letter for your NHS GP.
I am committed to lifelong learning, having also gained extra certification in nutrigenomics, mycotherapy and aromatherapy, as well as staying current with continued courses in the naturopathic and functional medicine arena. I am also a certified mould practitioner, a growing problem for people’s health.
