Nutritional Therapy
Ensuring that the body is optimally nourished is vital for good fertility for both partners. Nutritional Therapy works by giving your body the best possible intake of all the nutrients to allow it to be as healthy as possible and to work as well as it can. When nutrients are deficient in the diet imbalances occur which may result in imbalances such as poor egg or sperm quality; erratic periods and PMS.
During the consultation a personal nutrition programme will be designed to meet your body’s needs. The programme will take into account individual influences such as likes and dislikes and any specific dietary requirements.
Any tests that are recommended will also be discussed at the consultation. The most common tests used in fertility issues are a Hair Mineral Analysis to measure the levels of minerals in both partners’ hair and identify any toxic minerals that may be affecting your health. We also use a Female Hormone Profile Test in some cases to monitor the balance of hormones throughout your cycle. This provides a very clear picture of whether your oestrogen and progesterone levels are too high or too low. Based on the test results your diet and supplement programme will be altered to help rebalance you.
Rebalancing the body with Nutritional Therapy is an ongoing process and we have found that clients gain the most benefit and best results with regular visits and reviews of their personal program. We recommend an initial consultation to get you started, followed by a review after 4 weeks and then regular reviews every 3 to 4 months. This ensures that you are always moving forward, feeling supported and getting the most effective treatment possible.
Appointments are available for individuals and couples, and concessions are available on request.
