About me
At Jane Hickey Nutrition in Chelmsford and Purleigh I apply a scientific understanding of the impact of nutrition on health to assess my clients' health holistically. Nutritional therapy is for everyone who would like to optimise their health and wellbeing. Nutritional therapy offers particular benefits for those who are managing chronic symptoms, through supporting changes to diet and lifestyle. A comprehensive case history is taken during the consultation because I recognise that your individuality must be the focus of the plan which is created for you.
After many years as a teacher, I retrained at the College for Naturopathic Medicine to become a registered nutritional therapist. Combining a scientific evidence based approach with my skills in coaching, I create individualised plans to support my clients to make changes to diet and lifestyle. Diet and lifestyle habits are not changed overnight and I promote a step by step approach to help establish the long term changes which are supportive of your health. I have a particular interest in women's metabolic and endocrine health, and pre-conception wellbeing (men and women).
Get in touch with me by phone or email to set up an initial free 15 minute phone call. We can have a discussion about the nutritional therapy support I offer, so that you can decide whether you would like to book a consultation.

The Naturopathic Nutrition Association was formed by a group of Nutritional Therapists who passionately believe in the benefits of the naturopathic approach to nutrition.
