Alex is passionate about helping people to feel their best through food and lifestyle, and she knows what it’s like to juggle many balls and busy lives. She’s very much in touch with the challenges clients face in their everyday lives and inspires and motivates them with her realistic and balanced approach.
Alex has been involved in the food industry for over 20 years and her focus has always been on health and nutrition, and she enjoys helping people to overcome their health issues so that they look and feel better. Having overcome her own health issues, Alex understands how her clients feel when they first come to see her and works with them closely to ensure that they take positive steps to a healthier life. Change can be daunting and Alex helps to build each client’s confidence and enthusiasm through support and guidance, giving them the tools to be able to maintain long-term health and to become “the best versions of themselves”.
Following the principles of Functional Medicine, Alex aims to get to the root cause of her client’s issues, treating each one as an individual – we’re all different and have different sets of circumstances. She runs clinics as well as workshops, writes blogs and articles and is an effective public speaker. You can follow her on Instagram , Facebook and Twitter
