Get your health back on track

Book discovery call

Hello,

I’m Jessica, a registered Nutritional Therapist and I specialise in supporting the health of women with intimate health issues, particularly:

  • Bladder symptoms including recurrent and embedded UTIs, cystitis, interstitial cystitis and painful bladder syndrome.
  • Vaginal symptoms including dryness, discomfort, odour issues, recurrent thrush and bacterial infections e.g. bacterial vaginosis or aerobic vaginitis.
  • Couples trying to conceive, who want to investigate and optimise their vaginal and seminal microbiomes.
  • Repair and re-building of gut health.
  • Peri and post menopausal symptoms.

I empathise with anyone experiencing chronic genitourinary symptoms; they can be exhausting and distressing, impacting every aspect of life.  I have suffered myself.

I help women get their health back on track, one step at a time.

In my clinic I aim to identify the root cause of a health issue - something not commonly done in traditional healthcare. There are many reasons the body can be presenting with ongoing symptoms, some of which may not seem obvious.  

I recommend private testing when appropriate e.g. bladder, gut or vaginal microbiome, and for many the results can be truly insightful when it comes to understanding symptoms further.

Once I have a thorough understanding of an individual’s symptoms, drivers of these and a health history, I work with women to create a realistic diet and lifestyle plan to re-balance the body and help them feel more in control of their health. 

Interested? I offer a free 20 minute introductory call to discuss your health journey, and to help you decide whether I am the right practioner to support you.

Bladder conditions

Ongoing bladder issues can be overwhelming and affect every aspect of a woman's life; I know, I've been there and the experience led me to specialise in the area of women's intimate health.

Client feedback

I cannot thank her enough for all she has done, and in doing so allowing me to live my life in the way that I want to.

I suffered consistently with recurrent cystitis and UTI's. It was a viscous circle with which I felt I was doing everything I could to help myself and didn't know what else to do to prevent these problems and felt unable to live life comfortably around it.

During my first meeting with Jess, she had an instantly wonderful approach of listening patiently to everything I was going through.  She reassured me that all I was experiencing could be managed (which of course I never thought possible!) and we arranged a few more discussions to help with the problems.  I did a few other tests per her advice which were very eye-opening and helped explain a few things.

As we delved deeper and discovered a few other aspects of my body that were contributing to the troubles I was having, Jess was always there for a friendly word and piece of advice, which has been more than helpful and I use every day!

I cannot thank her enough for all she has done and in doing so, allowing me to live my life in the way that I want to.  Thank you so very much Jess, and I know you can help others the way you so very much helped me :)

Her guidance was precise and practical, which has been crucial in helping me achieve positive results.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Jessica to address some ongoing concerns related to my vaginal microbiome, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. From our very first session, it was clear that Jessica is deeply knowledgeable and passionate about her work. She provided me with a wealth of additional information that is not easily accessible elsewhere, helping me to understand the complexities of my situation better.

One of the aspects I appreciated most was her listening skills. Unlike some professionals who may enforce their own viewpoints, Jessica was completely open to exploring different routes of treatment. She took the time to understand my specific needs and sought out additional information to tailor the best protocol for me. Her approach was collaborative, ensuring that I felt heard and supported throughout the process.

In addition to her expertise, Jessica was incredibly clear in her instructions, making it easy for me to follow through with the recommended steps. Her guidance was precise and practical, which has been crucial in helping me achieve positive results.

Overall, I highly recommend Jessica to anyone dealing with microbiome concerns or looking for personalised nutritional advice.

Significant improvement in bladder issues (Interstitial cystitis)

I met Jessica nearly a year ago now. I had long-standing bladder issues (interstitial cystitis) and was fortunate to have been recommended to Jessica for help.

A few things have stood out over the months we've known each other.

First, Jessica's genuine passion and commitment to helping. She truly cares, and that was one of the most important things to me, given that I had seen other practitioners in the past who dismissed or downplayed what I was telling them.

Second, she's incredibly knowledgeable and knows her stuff.  

Third, she understands the importance of calming down flares while trying to dig deeper into the root cause of why they keep occurring.

With Jessica's guidance, I've tried a few different approaches. I'm not 100% free of symptoms yet, but I'm finally on the right path to getting my health back on track and have seen significant improvements in my symptoms.

No more UTIs and better overall health

I haven't had any further UTIs and have braved penetrative sex a couple of times, using the regime you recommended. We have made a number of the dietary changes you recommended and I feel I am eating a much richer, broader diet.

I generally feel much more energetic and switched on. I made it back to my hit class last week for the first time in months and felt good.  

So all in all, it feels like a more positive picture especially for this time of year.  I really appreciate the support you have provided to date.  For the first time really ever, I feel like someone has considered my health holistically and listened to my concerns. It means a huge amount!

The tests helped me understand what the cause of my UTI could be

I started working with Jess a few months ago as I was persistently getting a UTI after having sex. I really didn't want to have to keep taking antibiotics, and I had tried various supplements to try and help which sadly didn't work.


I was frustrated about it all, and it was getting me down. Jess was not only hugely informative from the start, but also kind, empathetic and understanding - and wanted to find out what the route cause might be.

With guidance from Jess, I decided to do both a vaginal and bladder microbiome test - which really helped me understand what the cause of my UTI could be (Jess also thoroughly talked me through all of my results) which standard NHS urine tests were not providing me with. I also learnt a lot about other supplements which I could take to help me (and the doses associated with these), as well as diet and how this would help me in the long term.

I (fingers crossed) appear to have turned a corner over the last few weeks, so not only am I delighted about that but I have also learnt a lot which I can take forward in my everyday life. Thank you Jess!

I’m pretty much back to full health

Earlier this year I had a urinary tract infection which persisted in spite of taking 4 rounds of antibiotics. I was feeling very unwell and anxious. I contacted Jessica and she was very empathetic and caring and created me a health plan to manage and recover from the persistent UTI symptoms I was experiencing.

I really believed in the plan; I took some supplements and made dietary changes which really improved my health and I’m delighted to say that 4 months after contacting Jessica I’m pretty much back to full health. Jessica is very knowledgeable and was very interested in my overall health and I’ve learned so much about nutrition which I feel will benefit my health moving forwards. I’m very grateful that my found Jessica to work with and I would highly recommend her.
