What is Nutritional Therapy?Nutritional Therapy is the application of nutrition science to promote health and wellbeing. Nutritional therapists work with clients to assess their nutritional needs and identify imbalances or deficiencies which may be contributing to an individual’s symptoms and health conditions. Changes to food and lifestyle are a key component in achieving and maintaining optimal levels of health.
Nutritional Therapists believe that everyone is unique and offer a personalised approach, ensuring that diet and lifestyle interventions are specific to each client and their own individual needs. As a complementary medicine, Nutritional Therapy is never recommended as a replacement for medical advice or treatment. Practitioners aim to work alongside other medical professionals and will always refer clients if they detect any ’red flag’ signs or symptoms that are cause for concern. |
