Involved in the health and fitness industry for over 24 years, Carole is a highly experienced, university qualified medical herbalist and clinical nutritionist. She has helped thousands of patients from members of Royal families to elite athletes and young children improve their health and obtain optimal wellbeing. Patients travel from the U.S, Africa, Europe and the Middle East to consult with Carole. Carole has great success with Food Allergy/Intolerance, Weight/Eating Disorders/Food Cravings, Energy enhancement, IBS/Colitis & other Digestive issues, Depression/Anxiety/Stress Relief, Arthritis and other pain disorders, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Insomnia, High Cholesterol, Blood pressure and other Cardiovascular complaints, Skin Irritations, Hormonal Imbalances, Infertility and Menopause to name a few.
Carole previously worked for many years as a personal trainer/ diet and fitness coach in schools, gyms and prestigious health clubs. Carole changed direction in life in 1994 after developing IBS, insomnia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and constant migraines and found western orthodox medicine unable to understand her debilitating chronic health problems. Carole’s rigorous 4-year full-time degree in Western Herbal Medicine included over 500 hours of clinical training and helped her develop a deep understanding of how one can travel from a place of wellbeing to one of ill health as she did.
After qualifying Carole took a counseling diploma and university masters level training in immunology and nutrition, individualised nutrition, clinical nutrition and live blood analysis in the U.S. This postgraduate training was like the icing on the cake? and really taught Carole the importance of applying the principals of individualised nutrition to herself and her patients. Carole now practices what she preaches and teaches and lectures on the concepts of nutritional individuality, specialising in Health Promotion.
Utilising the concepts of nutrigenomics - we are all unique individuals – and foods and supplements that are beneficial for some may be in fact less than optimal or even harmful to others, Carole devises individualised diet and supplement plans for her patients that help bring their bodies and minds back into optimum balance. As part of the consultation process Carole assesses with you, your live blood under a microscope that you can view on a video screen and performs a comprehensive set of chemical and clinical tests that help show where your metabolism and biochemistry may be out of balance. Carole is a trained phlebotomist and also performs blood, allergy, stool, oxidative stress and comprehensive metabolic assessments at an additional cost when required.
