Nutritional Therapist mBANT, rCNHC

About me

My work is rooted in the latest science but delivered in a practical, down-to-earth way. I’m a registered Nutritional Therapist, helping people feel better in their bodies, with more energy, better digestion, improved mood, and a greater sense of balance day to day.

If you’re dealing with ongoing symptoms, feeling run down, need support with GLP1 medications or just not quite like yourself, it can be hard to know where to start. 

I work clients to help them understand what’s going on beneath the surface and give clear, realistic steps to help them feel more like themselves again.

I offer one-to-one support (online or in person), combining personalised nutrition plans, lifestyle guidance, and, where helpful, functional testing. I am trained in, and have access to lab tests for gut health and Nutrigenomics (DNA), helping you every step with finding evidence to back your personalised plan. Everything is personalised to you, no generic plans or one-size-fits-all advice.

Together, we will:
- Explore your symptoms, health history, and day-to-day habits  
- Identify patterns and possible root causes  
- Support your energy, digestion, mood, and overall wellbeing  
- Build simple, sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle  
- Help you feel more confident in your food and health choices  

What I support with
- Digestion issues like bloating, and reflux  
- Low energy and fatigue  
- Hormonal and metabolic balance  
- Immune health and inflammatory conditions  
- Food sensitivities and nutrition-related symptoms  

My approach
I focus on helping you make changes that feel manageable and sustainable, not restrictive or overwhelming.

Working together
We start with a comprehensive one-to-one consultation, followed by a personalised plan tailored to your needs. Ongoing support helps you stay on track and make lasting progress.

You can book a free 15-minute discovery call at www.jaynehiggins.co.uk to see how I can support you.

I offer a structured 12-week Gut Reset & Restore Programme as well as individual consultations. I'm based in Birmingham (Edgbaston) and Bontddu, I work with clients across the UK online.

Training, qualifications & experience

I’m a Registered Nutritional Therapist (PGDipNT, mBANT, rCNHC, mIFM) with a strong focus on evidence-based, personalised care. I’m fully insured and trained in nutrigenetic testing (LifecodeGX), allowing me to take a deeper, more tailored approach when needed.

Alongside my clinical work, I sit on the judging panel for the Nourish Awards, where I assess supplements for their scientific evidence, effectiveness, quality, and safety. This keeps me closely connected to what genuinely works, so you can feel confident in the recommendations you receive.

My approach is always grounded in both science and real-life practicality, helping you make changes that are achievable, sustainable, and aligned with your goals.

If you’re ready to better understand your body and feel more confident about your food choices so that you can take clear, supported steps towards improving your gut health and overall wellbeing, I’d love to work with you.

Testamonials/Reviews:

“I’m so thankful to Jayne for helping me finally get to the bottom of my gut problems after years of struggling with SIBO. I’d been to the GP several times before, but nothing seemed to make a real difference until I did Jayne’s program. She was so patient and thorough, taking the time to really understand what was going on and adjusting things as we went. Her approach helped ease my symptoms massively and I can now eat a much wider range of foods again. I’d recommend Jayne to anyone dealing with ongoing gut issues — she’s made such a difference to my health and confidence.”

Janine H (Leicestershire)

I saw Jayne a year ago as I was struggling with my nutrition and weight management. She helped me understand the importance of the gut and fibre and how it impacts the body's overall health.

Jayne made some simple suggestions for changes to my diet that would also help with my energy levels, sleep and weight management, that were really easy to integrate into my lifestyle. All of her suggestions are backed by science and research so you know you're getting advice that will actually work.

Jayne also helped debunk a number of myths about miracle vitamins etc that were infiltrating the algorithm on my social media platforms!

I would highly recommend Jayne for support and guidance on anything nutrition related.

D.K. (Google review)

I approached Jayne in a bid to tackle a variety of conditions. I was confused about how to build a diet that would satisfy all of my needs. After an initial consultation, Jayne sent me nutritional and supplement recommendations, an example 3 day diet plan and information about anti-inflammatory snacks and intestinal permeability. I had recently paid for a food intolerance report. Jayne incorporated this into the plans and was available on email to coach me through the months long process of eliminating and reintroducing the foods. Jayne is a pleasure to work with; very approachable and great at explaining the science behind what is going on. Having that context has really helped me stay motivated. I cannot recommend Jayne highly enough.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Nutritionist's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Nutritionist to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

I have access to a fully accessible meeting room in Birmingham City Centre. Alternatively, we can meet online or I could visit you within the Birmingham area. Unfortunately there is an additional charge of £30 to rent the room for in-person meetings.
