“Health is the greatest of human blessings”

-Hippocrates

Don’t underestimate the impact of an imbalanced gut.

I work with anyone that has health issues, particularly patients who suffer with autoimmune diseases, includingInflammatory Bowel Disease. I will investigate with you, working as your gut “detective”.

We look for antecedents, triggers and drivers. We look at the whole person, environment, stress, body systems, the way someone sleeps, moves, breathes, eats, digests and thinks.

I want to help you achieve optimum health so you can keep yourself and your loved ones healthy.

Optimise your HEALTH to maximise your LIFE

 

Prolonged physical conditions are frustrating and debilitating in themselves but without finding a diagnosis, resolution or an effective treatment plan, all too often the toll becomes a mental one too.

Sadly too many people fail to find the answers they need or treatments that work for them.

Aside from the obvious IBS, IBD, GERD and other auto immune conditions, many also stem from having an imbalanced gut. I get to the root cause of illness or autoimmune conditions. It could be gluten intolerance, or could be as a result of living in a mouldy environment, or chemical sensitivity etc.

I find out what is driving a condition and help you to heal.

I’m here to empower people with Functional Medicine to take better care of both themselves and their health.

By using Functional Medicine and Nutritional Medicine, I help patients find a healthier way, but what does that mean in real terms?

Hello, I’m Nishtha

A mother who went to the ends of the earth and changed career. Why? In order to help a close family member who was suffering from IBD to live a life that was as drug free as I could possibly make it.

During the course of my journey to do so, I studied relentlessly for professional qualifications and now use my knowledge to help others through Nutritional Therapy and Functional Medicine.

I understand how difficult it is to try and get through the symptoms and anxiety of living with IBD or IBS, and have treated hundreds of patients with the same issues. There is another way - take back control of your health today…

 
 

What does a nutritional therapy session involve?

Prior to your initial consultation you’ll be sent a nutritional questionnaire and asked to complete a 3 day food diary.

At your appointment we will cover:

  • A full analysis of your complete health history

  • Current concerns & symptoms

  • Family history

  • Use of medication and current supplementation

  • Assessment of your nutritional status, diet and lifestyle

Based on nutritional science:

  • Your individual needs will be evaluated

  • A personalised nutrition & lifestyle program will be devised to help you achieve your goals. 

In certain circumstances, functional testing may be necessary.

These tests could include:

  • Vitamin and mineral analysis

  • Comprehensive stool analysis

  • Hormone levels

  • Gluten or food intolerance

  • Blood testing

  • Nutritional imbalance

  • Food sensitivities / intolerances

  • Organic acids

  • Genetic testing

Several tests, including genetic testing may be carried out to help ascertain the presence of any suspected underlying conditions.

*Supplements may be suggested if required as a result.
