I will create a bespoke diet and lifestyle programme for you, monitor your progress, and support your journey to ensure success.

Below are some of the lab tests I regularly use:

This is blood testing looking for biochemical imbalances that we can rebalance with the right nutrients, and may include advanced thyroid function testing with antibodies.

Digestive Functing Testing.

As up to 80% of the immune system is in the gut, looking at your digestive function with gives us a window into what could be going on and what support would be most suitable.

Cyrex Testing for Autoimmunity.

These tests look at what could be contributing to your autoimmune condition and may also predict likely autoimmunity to difference areas of your body up to 10 years before you develop symptoms.
