WHAT IS NUTRITIONAL THERAPY?

Nutritional therapy is a complementary and holistic therapy.

It works with your diet and lifestyle to ensure your body has the full range of nutrients it needs to work to its full potential, and to help combat any disorders you may suffer with.

Nutritional therapy is suitable for all ages, from babies to the elderley, and can work alongside orthodox medicine.

Nutritional therapy is also useful in helping you to keep fit and well by advising individuals on nutritional issues such as free radical damage, bone building minerals, good fats, digestive health, and the benefits of water consumption etc. It therefore plays a role in preventative healthcare.

Following a consultation, a nutritional therapy programme will be devised that is specific to your needs and state of health. Your programme may involve dietary changes, lifestyle changes and a supplement programme. If supplements are recommended you will be given details of where these can be obtained.
