Prior to my first consultation with Emma in July 2016 I had reached a point in life where I felt physically, mentally and emotionally drained. In the 2-3 years previous, I was experiencing many physical symptoms affecting my quality of life and finding it increasingly difficult to function as I needed to each day. As someone who when in my mid 30’s was working in the fitness industry, I felt that even exercising or going for a short run was becoming near to impossible as I was so fatigued.
In my mid-teens, I was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis and spent the next 10 years dutifully following the medical advice given to me by doctors and consultants. I endured countless invasive examinations and numerous hospital visits including a few longer stays, my symptoms included acute stomach cramps, having bowel movements 50 plus times daily with blood, headaches, having to stop all solid food for up to 4 days, complete mind fog, and many more symptoms, I remember thinking in my mid 20’s I don’t think I’ll see my 40’s!
When I sit back and reflect on the changes I have made under Emma’s guidance over the past five years…..I am amazed, and truly grateful that she has been a part of my transformational journey.
Having spent 30 years of my life as a yo-yo dieter and comfort eater and during that time being forced into the madness of one commercial diet followed by yet another – of course, sadly, as with so many people, there was no true success rate to show for my efforts.
I burned myself out 8 years ago. I made a couple of recoveries but, following a number of stressful situations in a short period of time, I had dipped even further down and thought I may never feel healthy again. My symptoms were numerous. It felt as if the different systems within my body were failing. I felt horrendous every day.
Prior to meeting Emma my symptoms were extremely difficult-low energy levels and I was experiencing chronic gut and stomach pain.
After a number of tests and lifestyle adjustments, which included dietary changes and supplemental support, 6 months on, I have substantially increased energy levels , and my gut and stomach pain now is at almost zero.’
Emma has had such a profound effect on my life, guiding me to a greater understanding of achieving health and vitality, motivating me to better every aspect of myself, all the while improving the health issues that I desperately wanted help with. I can honestly say that I have never felt more healthy, and with her guidance, I look forward to an even more healthy happy future”
