      As a Nutritional Therapist I work in conjunction with the public and a range of health care professionals to facilitate individualized treatment programs for clients with a wide range of conditions and those simply looking to improve their current levels of health. A former Crohns suffer I now specialise in autoimmunity and digestive health including Crohns, Colitis and IBS. As a mum of 2 small girls I'm also passionate about family health and the prevention of illness with a food first approach. Using the latest Advances in bio-energetic health screening technology I provide a unique testing service in my clinic to help formulate a personalised wellness plan for my clients who include sports enthusiasts, and gyms and those with chronic inflammatory and autoimmune conditions..
