FUNCTIONAL MEDICINE
"A catalyst in the transformation of healthcare"
Ease your body into
working with you
Back towards balance
It IS possible to work your body back towards balance (function!).
Dys-functional biology occurs long before a diagnosis is made.
In our modern world of suffering and chronic complaints & conditions, Functional Medicine brings promise and hope.
Every sign and symptom that a unique body presents is key communication that should be acknowledged, with the cause(s) then identified & addressed.
If your doctor has sent you away "all normal" and you're not happy with that, I'd love to meet you.
"As a catalyst in the transformation of healthcare, functional medicine takes a comprehensive approach to prevention, health, and well-being; treats root causes of disease; and restores healthy function through a personalized patient experience"

" I'm so glad I trusted my instincts this time and decided to embark on a journey with Louise. My health has been deteriorating for the last 10 years or so and it had gotten to the point where I was ready to give up. I was back and forward to the doctors for many years and they just didn't know how to help me. Five months in I am blown away with the difference in myself. I honestly never thought It was possible to feel happy again. I'm singing again, I can concentrate, I'm laughing, and even exercising. I've lost weight, I've lost the bloated belly, my hairs grown back, I have no joint pain but most importantly, I feel like me again. My body is functional again and I will be forever grateful."

"t’s hard to articulate the impact Louise has had on my life! We’re still working on my gut health but have made enormous progress, with my joint pain gone completely, and for the first time in my life my guts are normal, without constant discomfort, bloating, gas and explosions! Amazingly, I didn’t even ask for help with the chronic pain and regular flare ups of trigeminal neuralgia, having been told an artery and nerve were touching in my face, with the side effects of prescription meds not being worth the tiny reduction in pain. While managing my expectations and not giving premature hope, Louise pursued some personalised testing and expertly recommended supplements to address an imbalance, and my TN has completely resolved, after 15 years of constant pain!"
Hello and welcome!
My name's Louise, and I want you to hit your health goals - whatever they may be (dancing in my golden years is now one of mine!). Although, my original goal was to just heal and get better. There's such a huge difference between surviving and thriving.
While there is so much great awareness being raised around the health complaints and conditions of today, one question must prevail: why is there such a exponential increase in chronic distress? Why has it become so collectively difficult to retain our health?
Your genetics are unique - true - but genetics are not responsible for the soaring rates of chronic complaints. But so is your exposome, your laboratory results, your gut bacteria and your medical history, just to name just a few. You are a unique individual, who deserves individualised care.
I’ve trained with as many providers as possible, from mainstream universities to lesser known (more therapeutic) entities, to obtain as diverse a perspective as possible.
Thankfully, in Functional Medicine, we treat the unique person (in their entirety) in front of us, always using the very latest evidenced-based medicine. We design a personalised protocol that will work for YOU, based on your unique antecedents, triggers and mediators.
The best bit? Functional Medicine is SAFE, and in the experience of every practitioner, profoundly effective.
My promise to you: there IS promise!
