Functional medicine and holistic health are two approaches to healthcare that share a common focus on addressing the root cause of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. While functional medicine focuses on identifying and addressing underlying imbalances in the body, holistic health takes a more comprehensive approach that considers the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit.

Functional medicine practitioners use a variety of tools and techniques to identify underlying imbalances in the body, such as specialized testing, and then develop targeted treatment plans that address these imbalances. These treatment plans often involve dietary and lifestyle changes, nutritional supplements, and targeted therapies.

Holistic health practitioners, on the other hand, take a more comprehensive approach that considers the whole person rather than just specific health issues. They may use techniques such as acupuncture, massage, meditation, and yoga to support overall well-being and balance.

Both functional medicine and holistic health emphasize the importance of self-care and empowering individuals to take an active role in their health and well-being. By identifying and addressing underlying imbalances in the body and supporting overall well-being through a variety of techniques, individuals can achieve optimal health and wellness.

One of the key benefits of both functional medicine and holistic health is that they can be effective in treating a wide range of chronic health conditions, including autoimmune disorders gastrointestinal issues, hormonal imbalances, and mental health disorders. By taking a personalized and comprehensive approach to healthcare, practitioners can help patients achieve long-term improvements in their health and quality of life.

In conclusion, functional medicine and holistic health are two approaches to healthcare that share a common focus on addressing the root cause of health issues rather than just treating symptoms. By taking a comprehensive approach that considers the whole person and addresses underlying imbalances in the body, individuals can achieve optimal health and wellness. Whether you’re dealing with a chronic health condition or simply looking to improve your overall well-being, functional medicine and holistic health offer effective and empowering approaches to healthcare.

Formal Consultation and Blueprint

You’re super serious about your health goals and are eager to see results soon! Perfect!
A formal consultation is the first step in this process.

If you sign up for a formal consultation, you will receive a detailed questionnaire to fill out which I use to create a customised nutrition plan or formalised blueprint for you to follow.

I analyse your answers and the metrics you’ve recorded to define goals, calories, energy balance, macronutrients, deficits and surplus. I look at micro level detailing of your eating habits and patterns and suggest foods to add or delete based on your preferences, via a formalised blueprint.

The Blueprint will also include suggestions for eating frequency, windows and patterns. It will suggest pre and post workout nutrition options and recommend supplementation based on any deficits that show up in your questionnaire. Styles and frequency of training are also recommended.

The goal is to create a sustainable short and long term strategy to ensure you’re always in optimal health.

After creating the blueprint, a consultation call is arranged during which we go through the blueprint together. I explain macros and the role of hormones in overall health and take care of any comments, concerns or questions you may have. Once we’re aligned on the route forward, the Blueprint is sent to you.

This Blueprint will serve as the guide through your transformation journey.
