Nutrition and Dietetics
We offer clinical nutrition and dietetic health services.
Our approach to your healthcare is client focussed, evidence-based condition treatment and preventive health management. Restoring proper functioning of the body as well as preventing disease is the core objective of clinical and functional nutrition.
This is provided through a systematic health assessment that evaluates nutrient adequacy and deficiencies, food quality, and dietary and lifestyle behaviours. An individualised treatment plan is then developed for you. We aim to simplify the complexity of nutrition and to work with you in order to input effective and sustainable changes that positively improves your health long-term.
We provide food and nutrition education, focused on specific foods, supplementation, and the nutritional values they represent. Through the use of science and evidence-based research, the involvement of these nutrients is evaluated and used in both the treatment and management of existing conditions, and the prevention of disease.
This is achieved by using a whole system approach, as all our body systems interact, support and work together to help achieve an optimal functioning state. We analyse how these nutrients are best used by our bodies at a biochemical level in the maintenance of health and the prevention of disease- after all, we really are what we eat!
We aim to motivate clients and the public to eat well and live healthy lives, supported by a strong underpinning of current food and biochemical knowledge, and through the use of functional pathology.
