Nutrition Therapy

"He that takes medicine and neglects diet, wastes the skill of the physician."

- Chinese Proverb


What is nutrition therapy?

Nutrition therapy is the application of nutrition science in the promotion of optimal health and peak performance, disease prevention and patient care. There are many aims of an applied nutrition programme, a programme tailor made for the individual to help you achieve your health and fitness goals, including :

  • To assess for any underlying medical conditions or concerns that may require additional support from your general practitional or medical consultant
  • To assess for potential nutrient deficiencies, dietary imbalances and wholefood requirements in conjunction with your overall goals
  • To provide a structured programme over a sensible time period, in which regular assessment and monitoring, as well as personal support and motivation is provided to help you achieve your goals
  • To provide on-going recommendations to adapt and tailor your programme specific to your situation and needs
