About Nutritional Therapy

 

Nutritional Therapy as a complementary medicine applies the functional medicine method which is a client-centred and scientific evidence based approach.  This approach involves looking at the underlying reasons that may be contributing  symptoms (such as weight gain, fatigue, hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, brain fog and many more, of which you may be experiencing any combination) that you have by examining the systems in your body that are considered out of balance, such as the hormonal system or the immune system.  These are then addressed by using dietary and lifestyle changes in order to alleviate the symptoms identified in a natural way.  This is carried out by working together and devising a diet and lifestyle plan that is feasible for you ie. a uniquely tailored plan for you in order to achieve your health goals.  In a nutshell, nutritional therapy addresses the root cause of the symptoms rather than just managing the symptoms.
