Childrens Nutritional Therapy
Life can be extra challenging if your child is struggling with chronic health symptoms which reduce their energy, cause pain, low mood or anxiety along with frequent trips to the doctor or hospital and time away from childcare settings.
Diet, domestic and environmental pollution, poor gut health and stress can all play a role in your child's health and can lead to the development of conditions such as asthma, eczema, constipation, food intolerance and allergies, anxiety or depression, insomnia as well as developmental disorders.

What does a 1:1 Childrens Consultation Programme include?
​
I typically work with children for 3 sessions across 8-10 weeks. This allows me time to help your child make some new healthy habits in their diet and lifestyle as well put into place any professional guidance as to supplementation or Functional testing.
Functional testing is not always nesscary and can be challenging with small children, so I always like to prioritise food first when it comes to childrens health, however I have expertise in child-friendly functional testing such as Hair Mineral Analysis, which can provide useful information as to how potential mineral imbalances or heavy metals could be impacting your child's symptoms. This is especially helpful with mood, memory, concentration and poor appetite related symptoms.
