Testimonials

I was searching for a clinical, research based approach to my diet and my specific issues which included chronic bacterial and viral infections. Tom provided just that. His depth of knowledge is extensive, his evidence and his evidence based interventions are tailored very specifically to your particular issue. I want to thank Tom for all his help. I can’t emphasise enough how much I’ve learnt and how working with Tom has radically changed not only my diet but my health and mindset for the better, permanently. If you are willing to commit to his plans then I am confident you will see results for the better as I did. An increase in energy, a decrease in fatigue and longer periods of feeling well with a decrease in flare ups.

I decided to contact Tom following an internet search for a local Nutritional Therapist. Tom was very friendly and took a detailed history of my symptoms, diet and lifestyle factors. He helped me to formulate an idea as to some of the causes of my gastrointestinal problems. We then discussed possible changes to my diet and decided on a course of action. It was great to have access to Tom’s extensive knowledge and experience as a practitioner. This helped me to stay focused  and not be swayed by reading extensive and opposing articles from the internet!

Although my health and fitness were good I decided to consult with Tom in order to balance my supplements and diet in a more informed way with the aim of protecting my general health and wellbeing. In particular I was interested in supporting/protecting my brain health and improving my focus and concentration; reducing any unhealthy stress; healing a longterm peeling skin condition on my palms. We have also focused on balancing my blood sugar levels preventing insulin resistance. I was keen to to make the commitment to work with Tom and found his guidance very encouraging but also appreciated his respectful attitude to any suggestions I did not want to adopt. In fact he always found another route which I was more comfortable with adopting. The main obstacle for me was changing my breakfast diet. However I have adapted well now and began to more quickly than I first imagined. My health has benefited and in addition I am more adventurous with experimenting with my diet and have discovered that I am becoming increasingly willing to make significant changes. I liked the personalised and calm personal approach of Tom’s work. Spending quality time with Tom is beneficial in itself. I appreciated Tom’s honesty about his knowledge and the extent of current scientific thinking and his obvious interest in his work. The top four benefits are reduced brain fog, a relaxed solar plexus, increased confidence in the relevance of my supplement choices and healthier skin on my hands.

I was pleased to find you after years of looking for the right kind of advice. I liked your thorough and scientific approach to looking at my nutritional difficulties WITH me and your unpatronising manner. You listened very carefully, were respectful, gave careful thought and then gave me sensible dietary advice, which I am still following some years later. Your advice accorded with advice I subsequently received when I was diagnosed with lipoedema, possibly linked to a connective tissue disorder. Many people with the same condition have similar symptoms to mine and had found a similar dietary regime helpful. I would recommend you to anyone.

When I first saw Tom I felt I was experiencing a myriad of symptoms including exhaustion, brain fog and headaches, gall bladder and digestive pain. Eating protein and fats gave me a lot of digestive pain and for over a year I had struggled to get the nutrition I knew I needed. The resulting brain fog, headaches and exhaustion made functioning and work very difficult and stressful.

I found the abundance of information and supplements available online overwhelming. I’d tried many things which hadn’t worked and didn’t know which way to turn. I was nervous about going to see Tom and felt ashamed of my health difficulties and my eating. He is kind and non-judgmental which helped me to feel more at ease and able to share with him what I was finding so difficult.

He worked with me to design a plan for eating which felt not only realistic but enjoyable for me. He took much time and care to ensure the recommendations he made felt possible and staged changes such that I felt comfortable at all times. We also looked at sources of stress in my life how life changes in addition to dietary changes could support me further. He explained how the changes and supplements he recommended would support my health and healing.

Within three weeks the brain fog lifted and headaches became less frequent.  The digestive pain decreased with the supplements he recommended so that for the first time in months I was able to eat foods containing the nutrients I needed. I could concentrate and began feel like I could function and cope again. I continue to follow Tom’s recommendations and very much appreciate his ongoing support.

I was impressed by Tom’s level of professionalism, skill and knowledge that made him a great resource for health advice and I felt comfortable and at ease during the consultation. Although I had seen other nutritionists previously with the same complaints, Tom’s suggestion that I take hcl and pepsin before meals really made a difference to my symptoms. I will continue to see him for further support and insight on my health.

My sessions with Tom were really productive. He listened attentively to my life circumstances and after deliberation suggested various strategies, all with skill and grace: as a result I have seen a dramatic change in my energy levels and an overall improvement in my state of being. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to improve their health.

I was regularly having long periods of illness with cold and flu like symptoms. I was also having problems with concentration and memory and sometimes even found it difficult to string a sentence together. Thanks to Tom’s analysis and expert advice my mental and physical health has taken a much needed turn for the better, my quality of life has improved immensely and now my health is great!

I value Tom’s warm and open manner which makes it easy to talk to him about difficult and sensitive issues. He is interested, knowledgeable and clearly passionate about his work.
