Nutritional Therapy

Nutritional therapy is a science-led approach using nutrition and lifestyle medicine to support health, wellbeing, and peak performance. It recognises that each person is biochemically unique, with diet, genetics, lifestyle, and environment all influencing health. Using functional medicine principles, practitioners identify underlying imbalances and address the root causes of symptoms to help restore and maintain optimal health.

Personalised programmes go beyond general advice, taking into account your health journey, goals, and dietary preferences. Functional testing may be used to guide recommendations and uncover imbalances that standard tests might miss. Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, navigating midlife changes, or simply aiming to feel your best, nutritional therapy provides tools to make meaningful, lasting changes.
