The Food Doctor

ANNE-FRANCE RIX - BSc Nutr. Medicine, MBANT: Nutritional Therapy

She has also provided health advice to countless people during her 12 years as Manager of a Nutritional Clinic and health food store; and from working at the renowned Dr Marilyn Glenville Clinic in 2011 - where she received specialist training from Dr Glenville in using Nutritional Therapy to assist the management of female hormone disorders, and to support male and female fertility.

Anne-France’s clinical approach blends the best of both ‘Naturopathy’ and ‘Functional Medicine’, using a practical, personalised treatment strategy to help manage unpleasant symptoms whilst endeavouring to address the underlying causes of your health problems – such as nutritional deficiencies or hormone imbalances. Her aim is to help you achieve ‘optimum health’ – for maximum mental and physical vitality.

Anne-France’s experience and up-to-date knowledge of clinical research on supplements enables her to recommend products safely alongside medications. Her nutritional protocols are tailored to your unique needs and food preferences and specific lifestyle choices, helping you better attain your goals.

Gemma Landau - BSc (Hons) NT MBANT: Nutritional TherapyGemma approaches her nutritional consultations from a functional medicine perspective, therefore considers all of her patient’s symptoms and contributing factors, taking into account possible systems imbalances within the body.

Gemma is trained in aspects of person centred counselling and Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), which allows her to specialise in individual consultations, aiming to motivate and educate people to improve their wellness and lead a healthier lifestyle.

Gemma works with adults, particularly parents, as well as having much experience in working with children. Gemma can run our ‘family wellness workshops’ providing advice for fussy eaters, as well as weaning and meal-planning for whole families.

Initial consultations are used to establish goals and gain a full medical history, once this has been achieved; Gemma devises a personalised protocol which is goal orientated and ensures consideration to testing, medication interactions, polypharmacy and supplementation.

Future consultations are used to discuss progress and how best to make the necessary steps toward meeting your goals.
