What is Nutritional Therapy?
In nutritional therapy we look at the whole person and the whole picture to assess and analyse what could be the underlying imbalances that are causing your ill feeling.
We look at diet and lifestyle factors, stress factors, environmental factors and everything that is mentally and physically consumed potentially causing adversity in the mind and body.
We look at possible vitamin and mineral deficiencies and if there is a need for supplementation and functional tests through your GP or privately.*
Nutritional therapy is NOT a 'one size fits all' diet plan. We focus on the individual rather than the symptoms and the support and advice is completely personalised to you and your needs.
It also requires time and effort and therefore it is NOT a 'quick fix'. We use a targeted staged manageable approach to help you on your way to reach your health goals.
Registered nutritional therapy practitioners are trained to use the functional medicine model and a functional medicine approach to analyse all systems in the body, its interactions, external factors and potential predispositions. We are trained to assess for underlying biochemical and nutritional imbalances and apply nutritional science research and up to date evidence based information.
Nutritional therapy is not a replacement for medical advice and practitioners will often liaise with the client's GP and other healthcare practitioners, to ensure safe practice at all times and act in the best interest of the client.
We work together on your wellness through having a series of one to one consultation sessions. Tell me about the consultations
*Please note, functional testing and supplements are not included in the consultation fees and will be charged additionally.
Here's what some of my clients had to say..
I looked at myself in the mirror and it was the first time, in a long time, that I was happy with the person I saw.
Laminn provided the guidance I needed to help me find the right way for me to have the body I wanted.
She was very interested in my health and requested tests from my GP which he organised. Laminn did lots of research and proposed a personalised regime for me.
She was available by email throughout the programme if I needed extra support. She was encouraging but not judgemental.
I have seen a significant improvement in my health, both mental and physical, which I can only put down to what I am fuelling my body with.
Following her recommendations I had more energy and found it easy to lose weight which was one of my goals. I've been given the tools to continue the journey of healthy nutrition.
Have lost weight without even trying, feel healthier and more energetic, like a car running better, cleaner..
I really enjoyed the programme. I learned a lot about nutrition and made a huge improvement to my eating habits. I found it easy to make healthy food choices. Laminn always made time to listen to me and gave very helpful ideas.
I had an excellent experience with Laminn and I would recommend her to anyone. She helped me build a sustainable plan for myself that I honestly can keep to while still enjoying my favourite foods and without missing too much by helping me identify which triggers caused me the most problems and found alternatives I can enjoy instead. She also did not tell me to cut out XYZ food groups but helped me identify which ones I can cut down and which ones I would not miss too much by cutting out.
Tiredness, afternoon slumps have disappeared, only felt a bit tired twice in 7 weeks, and not used to feeling tired anymore!
My nails just wouldn't grow and now they have!
