I turned to Sandra after several visits to my GP about general health and hormonal issues proved fruitless.

I was already aware of the benefits of nutrition in helping address my symptoms, and I was particularly keen to consult a Functional Medicine practitioner.  So I was absolutely delighted when I found that Sandra ran a clinic locally to me.

I pre-booked three consultations with Sandra and my first session was remarkably uplifting.  I suddenly had someone who really understood my health concerns, asked me all sorts of valid questions, and supported me as we talked about difficult issues that were impacting on my general health and wellbeing.  At the first consultation Sandra recommended a diet and supplementation plan to get me through the initial stages of my move to better hormonal (and mental!) health.  Sandra also made several pertinent suggestions outside of the diet/supplementation programme, including methods for addressing anxiety and stress levels.  There wasn’t one avenue that she could not explore.

And… it worked!  Within a short space of time many of my symptoms had diminished or vanished altogether.  I felt better and I slept better.

Sandra’s knowledge and advice appear limitless, her solutions are practical, and her approach is flexible to your needs at the time.  Sandra’s energy, professionalism and desire to help people is a real credit to her and a huge benefit to her clients.

From my experience of having consulted Sandra, I have no hesitation in recommending her.

Since having had my children, my hormones were all over the place and my mood swings were out of control. I did not recognise myself or my actions throughout certain times of the month and after a while I finally plugged up the courage to go and see my GP to talk about the symptoms I was experiencing.

The help which I was offered was one of three options:

1) To take the mini pill
2) Go onto anti-depressants
3) Have the coil fitted

Neither of which I wanted to do, as I figured that these would mess even more with my hormones, give me side-effects and not solve the underlying issues. After some research I found Sandra and we ended up having a telephone consultation to see, if she could help and if we would “click”.

I am so very glad I made this phone call, as we ended up meeting and having a total of three face-to-face consultations.

Quite frankly it changed me; my outlook on life; my hormone imbalance. It also gave me an immense insight into nutrition and how important it is to eat healthily and keep a balanced life-style.

I was the constantly tired and grumpy mum, who was constantly snacking and having frequent energy crashes throughout the day, which resulted in me being snappy and quite frankly unpleasant to be around.

I didn’t realise how my food choices affected my energy levels and hunger. Sandra helped me put a nutritional plan together, which allowed me to have stable, steady blood sugars and well-regulated insulin levels throughout the day.

From a sugary diet, I changed to a more protein based, healthy fats and low carbohydrates diet. Combined with the right supplements, this changed me within just three to four weeks. The impact was huge.

Knowing what triggered the hormone imbalance and what I needed to do to balance it out again, was the biggest part of the jigsaw. Finally, I was able to take back control.

I cannot thank Sandra enough for all of her help and input and would recommend her to any woman going through difficulties with a hormone imbalance.

I am so happy I was recommended to contact Sandra. I didn’t know how my life would change until the day I was referred to her. From the care and consideration that she’s exhibited in gathering information about my health history to figuring out what interventions would help me not just get through the day but for life. Sandra has been nothing short of amazing at getting to the root cause of my health issues, which included gut issues and PMS, when other functional doctors suggested short term measures.

A wealth of knowledge and not afraid to challenge the usual ways that other naturopaths have doled out treatment for my hormonal challenges, Sandra knows her stuff. Every week from the first, I’ve continued to feel better and better and have discovered what I’ve always felt to be true for me: that it is possible to feel like my healthier more energetic self again after being so far away from optimal for so long. It has been and continues to be such a blessing working with Sandra.

Forever grateful to you Sandra!!

From my young client:
I was diagnosed with psoriasis last year and my parents and I went to several doctors for treatments and in return I was given lots of topical prescriptions such as steroids. We tried these steroids on my skin and the recovery was spectacular , until later on we realised as soon as we stopped applying it on my skin, it would just get worse. That’s my parents decided to find another route of treatment, a functional, natural way of healing psoriasis, and there we found Sandra. We began the course of treatment last December where I was prescribed some supplements and had to cut out nightshade vegetables, gluten, dairy, sugar, and all processed foods from the supermarket, from my diet. This diet was probably the most difficult part of the treatment and was extremely hard, however it was certainly worth it. The course of natural treatment with Sandra lasted 7 months, where at the beginning my body was covered with patches of psoriasis, on my arms, legs, stomach, and even face, that I felt completely hopeless. And now I am happy to say I am psoriasis free! With there being no spots of red scaliness on my skin but just clear beautiful skin. Without Sandra I would never have been able to come this far in my psoriasis journey and I owe it all to her. Sandra was so nice and helpful to me, always offering recommendations on what to do and she is so easy to reach out to if I ever needed to ask something in between the treatments. Now, I can almost eat anything I want, my supplements are decreasing and I am back to my normal life. I would definitely 100% recommend Sandra to those who are struggling with the same problem as I was.

From the parents:

My daughter (13) came to Sandra in December 2020 with a very bad outbreak of psoriasis on her body and seborrheic dermatitis on her scalp and forehead.We were very despondent at this point because the medicines (basically steroids) prescribed by both her GP and Consultant had offered some temporary relief but as soon as she finished the course of treatment her symptoms returned and became even worse

From the first meeting Sandra reassured her that as long as she carefully followed her protocol of very strict diet, supplementation and lots of rest she was vey confident that she could help her. Sandra was able to make an immediate connection with her and for the first time in months we sensed that our daughter felt that she could and would get better

To be perfectly honest this is not an easy protocol particularly for a teenager because they basically have to give up all the goodies they enjoy and keep to a diet free from gluten, dairy, sugar, processed foods etc etc.The important thing was that Sandra was there for my daughter every step of the way with regular monthly meetings and always being available when we needed help or advice on anything

The result was that after the first 4-6 weeks we started to see the first signs of improvement that quickly accelerated with each passing month. By the third month it was obvious to us that she was going to get better and by May her skin was totally clear. It was just amazing

I can honestly say the without Sandra’s help and guidance my daughter wouldn’t be where she is today.She is back to being the happy teenage girl that we all love

It is difficult to express what a wonderful job did for her and we cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone suffering similar autoimmune problems

Once again thank you so much Sandra

I was recommended to go see Sandra after struggling with tummy issues for quite a few months. I’m so glad I did!

She’s a lovely and very knowledgeable person and gave me a tailored service specific to my needs and symptoms (something GPs just don’t have the time to do).

I was a little sceptical at first but within a few weeks of following her routine and take the prescribed supplements, my issues cleared right up.

When I first started seeing Sandra I was suffering from migraines, bloating and I was carrying more weight than I wanted to. I was amazed at how quickly my weight started dropping and soon my migraines all but disappeared. I have also developed a much better relationship with food after following her diet recommendations. I highly recommend seeing Sandra if you’re struggling with any number of ailments. She’s always helped me feel at ease and in very good hands!
