Nutritional Therapy
Nutritional Therapy is a complementary healthcare discipline that combines the sciences of biochemistry and nutrition with natural therapies and lifestyle changes in the promotion of health, peak performance and individual care. It aims to work with the person as a whole, addressing the underlying imbalances that my be impacting on health, rather than just acting on symptoms. Imbalance can take many forms, for example a nutrient deficiency or hormonal excess, but it is usually accompanied by symptoms that without the diagnosis of a condition can sometimes be unaddressed by conventional medicine.
Protocols are evidence-led and tailored to each person’s unique needs, taking into account lifestyle, ethics and food preferences. Where necessary, diet and lifestyle are combined with a program of supplements and natural remedies aimed at addressing imbalances.
Nutritional Therapy is relevant both for individuals looking to enhance their health and wellbeing and for those with chronic conditions.
