She combines evidence-based nutritional strategies, functional testing, and gut–brain retraining tools to uncover and resolve the underlying drivers of IBS—whether they stem from diet, stress physiology, microbiome imbalance, or unresolved emotional patterns. Her approach is deeply personalised: Using comprehensive testing (blood chemistry, microbiome mapping, genetics, organic acid and soft tissue mineral scans) to identify hidden imbalances. Developing tailored nutritional and lifestyle strategies to restore gut health and regulate the nervous system.
