Ann Shaw
DThD.DN Med., T.A.S.K. M.BANT. NTCC. CNHC
Having suffered with multiple allergies in my early 20's at a time when allergies were rarely acknowledged, I discovered that my symptoms arose from eating some common every-day foods. My life had been completely overtaken with allergies. I gradually began treating myself through knowledge gained studying numerous health books and then went on to consult a nutritional therapist for further advice.
Impressed with the huge improvements I had made I then went on to study nutritional medicine at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London. With a passion for my work and really getting to the underlying cause of illness, each new case I see I approach with enthusiasm and dedication to do all that is possible to help you on every level.
I have successfully helped thousands of patients of all ages with various health problems, and am a professional member of The British Association of Nutritional Therapists (BANT), and the Nutritional Therapy Council, (NTC). I also have the qualification of NTCC, (Nutritional Therapy Certificate of Competence), and am CNHC registered, (Complementary And Natural Healthcare Council), recommended by the Dept. I ensure keeping my knowldege up-do-date by meeting Continued Professional Development (CPD)
I have also worked with an Educational Trust for 18 years as Area Representative of Surrey and Middlesex, helping children from tragic and traumatised backgrounds.
"Your consultation and follow-through have been beyond my expectations and your commitment, thoroughness and obvious passion for your calling are inspirational. Thank you."
MY APPROACH
I use evidence-based nutrition science to help you reach your full health potential. This means personalised dietary and lifestyle changes aimed at:
- Supporting gastrointestinal health
- Promoting healthy blood sugar balance
- Enhancing emotional and psychological well-being
- Addressing nutrient deficiencies and food sensitivities
These are some of the advanced diagnostic tests I offer: Functional Diagnostic Tests
“A truly good physician first finds out the cause of the illness, and having found that, he first tries to cure it with food. Only when food fails does he prescribe medication……” ~ Sun Ssu-Mo (6th century AD)
Consultations
I am a sensitive and empathetic practitioner and take account of individual needs and lifestyles. If you would like to discuss your symptoms before making an appointment, please contact me, and I will give you a frank appraisal as to whether nutritional medicine is likely to benefit your particular health problem.
