About me

Welcome to Paula Jones Nutrition. I believe every individual has their own unique dietary and nutritional requirements. My aim is to pin point underlying factors contributing to health issues, rather than simply working with the symptoms. 

My working career began as a professional dancer, dance teacher and later a Pilates instructor. In my early twenties I experienced an unexpected decline in health, experiencing multiple chronic symptoms of no obvious cause. In seeking to manage my own health, I developed an interest in nutrition.

My motivation to learn led to my studying at the prestigious UK College of Nutrition and Health (BCNH), where I graduated with distinction. Since qualification I am proud to have worked in independent practice running my nutritional therapy consultation company. In addition I have been a proud member of the BCNH clinical tutor team, supporting the learning of BSc honours students in clinical practice. Whilst also working as the Clinic Director at Good Health Nutrition (GHN), the specialist nutritional therapy teaching clinic in association with BCNH. Until recently I was a team member of IBSClinics specialising in gastric health, in particular root cause of SIBO, associated intestinal distress and overall wellbeing. 

About Paula Jones Nutrition
I focus on realistic, achievable, diet and lifestyle changes. Recognising that each individual has their very own unique dietary and nutritional requirements whilst focusing on pin pointing underlying factors rather than simply working with symptom presentation.

Consultations
All consultations are 1 hour, 90 minute or 2 hours,  dependant on individual needs.
How many visits?
Consultation attendance is dependent on a variety of key factors such as reasons for visit, your compliance and duration/complication of health concerns. I recommend budgeting for a minimum of 3 consultations. 
Supplements?
 A supplement programme will be suggested if believed beneficial to the individual. In most cases when health is chronically compromised, supplements can be an important intervention to return to wellness. 
Functional Laboratory Tests?
Functional tests can be an extremely effective tool in determining underlying factors involved in health concerns. If deemed beneficial this would discussed with the client at length during a initial consultation.

I’m a registered member of the British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy (BANT), the Complementary and Natural Healthcare Council (CNHC) Complementary and Alternative Practitioners.

Nutrition topics

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.

Fees

Additional information

Please contact Paula direct for consultation fees

Each consultation is 1 hour, 90 minutes or 2 hours depending on complexity. 

Often with Nutritional Therapy the greatest percentage of work is beyond the actual appointment itself.

My fee includes all work completed outside of each hourly consultation ie personnalised report building/writing & tailored guidelines, potential health concern & medication research, supplement contraindications & tailored programme, diagnositic test recommendations/analysis.

Further information

My personal experience has given insight into life changing health problems and coping with long term chronic ill health. I believe strongly that developing an understanding of health and nutrition can enable people to make informed choices, maximising their health and enabling them to feel back in the driving seat of their own wellbeing.
