Everyone has a Health Story

…and we are tuned into the individual habits of our own bodies. Some people have niggling symptoms, whilst others may be suffering with long-term ill health.

What do your symptoms tell us about your underlying health?

Nutritional Therapy offers you the time that you require to talk through all aspects of your health and to learn how different symptoms are interconnected. It is not uncommon for people to feel puzzled or even overwhelmed by health imbalances and Nutritional Therapy provides a personalised framework to finding a workable route towards improved health.

I work as a Registered Nutritional Therapy Practitioner supporting clients who are experiencing a wide range of health issues to achieve improved health and well-being.

I work with my clients to identify the factors promoting their health issues to understand which of their body systems are out of balance. A personalised nutrition programme is then developed aimed at optimising their health and wellbeing.

My Story

Having gained a PhD in the field of Molecular Genetics from the University of Nottingham, I subsequently worked in genetic analysis software development and telecommunications for nine years working in project management, training and development and person-centred coaching. I took a career break in 2003 to look after our three small children.

I redirected my career into Nutritional Therapy having witnessed the power of this therapy in supporting our daughter to regain her health following a period of poor digestive health and unexplained fatigue aged 11.

Nutritional Therapy has been transformational for our family as we all have a history of respiratory, skin and digestive imbalances. When our children were young, we were regular visitors at the health clinic. Ten years on they are now active, healthy and happy adults/teenagers.

“Jane was very kind, approachable and knowledgeable. Her assessment was thorough, and I felt listened to throughout. The advice she gave me was simple and easy to action. I am already feeling the effects of the small changes I have made in my diet, my mood has improved and I have more energy during the day – I’ve even managed to persuade my partner to make some positive changes in his diet. I can’t recommend Jane highly enough, if you think (or know) you need to make some changes in your diet give her a call……you won’t regret it.”

“When I met Jane, I was feeling low on energy, suffering with my digestion and my skin had flared up. Jane has a very gentle and understanding approach and does not force anything on you. She truly understands how the body is connected and what it needs to function properly. Jane makes suggestions on what she feels you need to do and takes the time to discuss. I thoroughly recommend Jane as I now feel so much better, what a way to start a new year! Thank you Jane.”

“Within a few weeks of starting a change in diet, my symptoms eased, and my energy levels improved. With support and guidance from Jane I'm now much stronger, back at work and managed my healthiest winter in over 18 years! I’ve even found ways of enjoying cake without it being unhealthy! I couldn't have done it without her, so thank you!”

“Jane is extremely good at drawing diagrams and explaining the science behind things, as well as being incredibly easy to talk to. Jane manages to be very professional, lovely, friendly, patient, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to change the way they think about food, and themselves.”

“Jane explained the problem areas to me in a clear, understandable manner, drew up a personal nutrition plan for me and motivated me to make the necessary changes in my lifestyle. I noticed a positive effect with 2 days and since then have seen a consistent ongoing improvement in not only my digestion but also energy levels and recovery time following exercise. I am very grateful for Jane’s help and cannot recommend her highly enough.”

"I have taken advice from Jane on several matters and she has always been able to help; she is fantastically knowledgeable, and her advice is pragmatic, sensible and easy to follow. Jane doesn’t judge whether what you do is right or wrong, she just helps you identify better ways to look after your health with a sensible eating plan. She also encouraged me to make changes that have improved the quality of my sleep. It was much easier than I thought it was going to be!"
