About me

Over the past 18 years I have helped hundreds of clients like you with symptoms of your gut issues to get their lives back on track, including: Food allergy and food intolerance, Reflux (GERD), Gastritis, Microbiome imbalances, multiple food reactions, Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), irregular bowel movements, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as Ulcerative Colitis (UC).

My clients become free from pain and constant worry about what they can or cannot eat, whether or not they will ever have a normal bowel movement again.

Imagine feeling more energised, sleeping better and not worrying about painful symptoms every time you sat down to eat.

If you are looking to work with an expert who can help you figure out the best foods for you and help you improve your overall health without the guesswork or faddy diets you are in the right place.

How I work

My approach is client centred, personalised and bespoke. I like to explore the bigger picture, to take a step back and get a bird’s eye view of each client as a whole. Because every person is unique and has different needs and goals it is important at the beginning to take time to get to know you. ⁠

Once I understand you and your health history, we can work together to create a road map that will enable you to see the positive changes and transformations you deserve.

I use the following specific seven pillars of health to help you: diet, digestion, sleep, stress, movement, mindset and environment.

I use nutrition and lifestyle changes as much as possible to help the body function more efficiently but I also utilise supplements to help raise nutrient levels and bring support where needed.

I also use specific microbiome testing to help you work out what foods you need to eat more and which foods you should avoid.

Schedule an initial 20-minute chat with me here to assess your needs and discuss a suggested plan. No charge or obligation.

Services I offer

I offer individual appointments as well as a discounted signature package of four appointments, as lasting changes takes time.  All programmes include an initial 60 minute appointment with online follow-ups.  

The package costs £595 and includes four sessions at a discount:

- Initial 60 minute consultation,
- 45 minute results consultation
- Two 30 min follow-up consultations.

For sessions to be included within the package, they must be booked to fall within 3 months of the previous session. Refunds are not issued for unused sessions unless they are cancelled before results analysis.

You can also book an initial consultation (60 minutes) to explore and understand your health issues, symptoms, goals, current diet and lifestyle, medical and family history, drug nutrient interactions and then book individual follow-up appointments or upgrade to my package..

info Information about health conditions (*)

Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.

What Some of My Clients Have Said

"My son has multiple food allergies, his diet was restricted and repetitive. Melody gave us fantastic practical nutritional advice and supplement guidance in order to make sure that his diet was varied and that he was getting all the vitamins and minerals a growing boy needs. I thoroughly recommend her service!" (JE, Putney).

“As you know, I suffer from (a hormonal condition) and decided to come and see you because of the severe pain and vomiting I had during my period and feeling sick the rest of the time.  Since seeing you, my energy levels have improved and although I still get pain during my period it has gone down from two days to one and I no longer feel sick or vomit.  If I hadn’t changed my diet, as you suggested, I don't think I would have been able to go back to work as I was feeling sick all the time.” (JB, London).

“My son has had persistent reflux, abdominal pain, and feeling sick since he was about 5 (he is 8 now).  Despite an array of medical tests, hospital stays, advice and trying a number of different treatments, he continued to be in daily pain, which was very distressing.  It was only when Melody recommended some specific digestive support that his symptoms cleared up, literally within a few days.  We are all delighted.” (JD, London).

"When I came to see Melody, Diego was waking up 4-5 times a night and had terrible wind. After explaining to me what foods help promote sleep and what might be contributing to Diego's wind, Melody gave me some sensible dietary advice, which was surprisingly easy to incorporate which made it all the easier! When we met up again about a month later, Diego's wind had completely gone and he was only waking up 1-2 times a night. (MC, Putney)

“I had a mastectomy, reconstructive surgery, and chemotherapy. While I have been told by my consultant that [everything is fine], I had a number of other problems which is why I decided to come and see you. I am delighted to say that since seeing you, I feel a lot more energised, am sleeping much better, and no longer suffer from reflux. I am really pleased I have made the dietary changes you suggested. It has made a big difference to my quality of life.”  (AN, Southfields)
