Andrea is an insured member of the British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy (BANT) and a Fellow of the Federation of Holistic Therapists (FFHT). Her aim is to help clients discover how a healthy balanced diet and simple lifestyle changes can be a positive step to feeling healthy, happy and full of energy. Andreas natural ability to relate to people on a personal level, together with her passion for nutrition, provide a friendly uncomplicated approach in helping people to achieve their health goals.
Having always had an interest in health and nutrition, and after spending 16 years raising 3 sons, Andrea decided to re-train in the area that she feels very passionate about. Her interest in diet and exercise as a way to maintain her weight, led her to qualify as a fitness instructor, followed by qualifications in diet and weight management, and nutritional advice. Understanding the role that a healthy balanced diet and exercise plays in weight management, Andrea wanted to explore the use of nutrition in other areas of health, and chose to study Nutritional Therapy.
In addition to a Diploma in Nutritional Therapy, Andrea also has Diplomas in Holistic Therapies including Massage, Aromatherapy, Reflexology and Indian Head Massage. Combining the Holistic therapies with Nutritional therapy, is an excellent combination in helping to restore balance within the body, especially if stress management is an issue.
