Nutritional Therapy is the application of nutrition science in the promotion of health, peak performance and individual care. Nutritional therapy practitioners use a wide range of tools to assess and identify potential nutritional imbalances and understand how these may contribute to an individual’s symptoms and health concerns. We recommend personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes rather than a ‘one size fits all’ approach.
Alyson Carter is a Nutritional Therapist having graduated from the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London.

How Nutritional Therapy Can Help You
Certain foods will enhance your overall wellbeing and make you feel good whilst others may be detrimental leading to common health complaints such as low energy, skin problems and problems with digestion or stress.
I can provide you with a healthy eating and lifestyle plan to maximise your health. I concentrate on 3 main areas:
– Food Sensitivity Testing and Consultation
to help alleviate feelings of bloating, stomach pain, low energy, constipation and loose bowels.
– Managing Blood Sugar Level
based around strategies to help maintain your blood sugar level, stress level and energy levels through the day
– Skin Optimisation
to help deal with skin problems such as acne and rosacea from both the inside and outside.

Functional Medicine Practitioner IFMCP
Nutritional Therapist mBANT
My area of interest is supporting people with autoimmune conditions as well as peri & post menopause women. My clients are learning to trust their self-healing capability with my support and guidance.
As a Functional Medicine Practitioner, I take a naturopathic approach, focusing on identifying the root causes of health issues and guiding you towards holistic well-being through dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments and natural remedies. Holistic means considering you as a whole, examining the interconnectedness of the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of your health. To truly optimise our health and well-being we need to achieve balance in all of these areas.
