I had a hysterectomy following the diagnosis of Endometrial cancer and wanted to ensure that I was doing all I can to support my body.

The functional testing has been a huge help and quite a revelation about what I can learn about my body and help get my body and health back on track. I feel more empowered and can see the way forward.

What has improved?

My life! I sleep better, I eat healthier, I have more energy, feel less bloated, my skin and hair feel much better - and did feel too bad before we started!

I liked that the programme modules came at just the right time. 

Working with Michelle was interesting, eye-opening, thought-provoking and reflective. Michelle is a wonderful practitioner who takes time to listen and will apply her knowledge. If she doesn't know - she'll sure find out!

I have already recommended Michelle.  If you're concerned about menopause, please don't guess what HRT you need, go and get checked properly and discuss how you can fully support you body as you enter the next stage of life.

I came to Michelle completely burnout.   I suspected I was going through early menopause and was also struggling with stress, brain-fog, fatigue, depression, crippling anxiety.  I had also just completed treatment for breast cancer. It was a scary and confusing time but I was eager to bring my body back to balance.

Initially Michelle and I worked together on nutrition.   As someone who has always enjoyed cooking I thought I was fairly knowledgeable around food and diet.  However, after completing various food, medical, lifestyle and stress questionnaires, Michelle opened my eyes and educated me to the fact that I wasn’t always consuming the right food at the right time to best support my body.  She made recommendations and suggested alternatives to some of my food habits.  In particular, we identified that my body was lacking in proteins, resulting in an addiction to sugar, particularly sugary drinks. Living for years with huge variations in my blood sugar levels resulted in mood swings and fatigue at certain points of the day.  Since I have worked with Michelle I feel more balanced and I rarely get “Hangry” like I used to..!

Following Michelle’s expertise and guidance I undertook a GI test.  Michelle was clear and supportive at explaining my GI test results.  She then made recommendations of beneficial supplements to take, which included her facilitating a gut cleanse to bring my body back to balance.  After cancer treatment, I was taking a cocktail of random supplements, hoping that it would help support my body and immune system. However, following Michelle’s guidance and suggestions of suitable supplements resulted in a stronger immune system; increased energy levels; better mood; more stable weight; improved condition of my hair, skin and nails and a boost in compliments from others!

Michelle helped me get my hormones in balance. Chemotherapy, radiation and hormone therapy had resulted in what I thought was early menopause at 39, although I wasn’t certain. What I did know was that I was a hormonal mess; I accepted crippling anxiety, mood swings and unpredictable menstrual cycles as “normal”.  Furthermore, the breast cancer I had was hormone receptive which was a further indication that my hormones were out of balance.  Michelle suggested I had my hormone levels tested using the DUTCH test. I cannot recommend this test enough - Michelle’s explanation of my results and her recommendations were priceless! Having this knowledge and understanding of my hormone levels meant I was able, and felt empowered, to make well-informed decisions going forward.   Michelle’s open-minded approach also meant I felt able to make decisions that were right for me and my body. She also went ‘above and beyond’ to provide me with support, advocacy and encouragement while I found my voice and navigated health professionals during this time.

Michelle also used various techniques, including breathwork, to help me recognise and release emotional trauma from my body.  This ensured that my body and mind were in an optimum place for healing. She also used her vast knowledge and expertise to recommend helpful books, films and meditations, many of which have been paramount in my healing journey.

Michelle has played a massive part in my recovery from burnout and breast cancer. I don’t just feel like “me” again; I genuinely feel like the best version of myself. I have balance back in my body and mind for the first time in decades!  My energy levels and lust for life have improved greatly, meaning I am now able to enjoy doing my work in the world and spending quality time with family and friends.   Thank you Michelle for playing such a pivotal role in my recovery and road back to full health!

I came to Michelle feeling unwell, with what I thought were perimenopausal issues.  I was not getting any answers from my GP. 

The functional testing has been a huge help and quite a revelation about what I can learn about my body and help get my body and health back on track. I feel more empowered and can see the way forward.

What has improved?

Sleep, digestion, energy levels, general sense of wellness, although I think there is still a way to go. I feel like a normal person again.

I liked that the programme modules covered mindset, diet and other aspects, and that they gave me tips and techniques to further take care of myself.

I would recommend Michelle being very informative about how to make lifestyle changes. Health tips and information about mitochondria and other interesting things that I didn't know about or didn't realise how important they are. Helpful to take a wider perspective on health and think beyond the NHS medical model.

I started working with Michelle because I had Hormone Imbalance, Fatigue, Insomnia, Weight Gain, Anxiety & generally not well.

The lab testing was very helpful. An insight into what is going on for me and what needs to be done to address the underlying causes of my body being out of whack.  Michelle was completely spot on in her direction. 

I now have more energy, less cravings, better cognitive function, so much less anxious, an ability to deal with stressful circumstances so much better.  

The weekly modules in the programme were helpful on my healing journey and gave me tips and tricks to help me when I needed them. I learnt something in each module to help me. 

I really would recommend Michelle. I feel a lot of women are not clued up enough on how to go through the menopause without having to struggle so much and I would tell them that Michelle's modules are super informative and would aid them in having more balance brought to their body, both mentally and physically.

I feel that Michelle is absolutely great to work with. She has outstanding knowledge of health/ nutrition, knows exactly how to address the underlying causes of a client's health, recommends the right tests and implements protocols which are not terribly restrictive and easy to manage/ follow. Michelle is also very supportive/ professional and is always available to address any concerns/ issues over the better me practioner app. I most certainly would recommend Michelle to friends/ family/ colleagues as they would achieve some great results by working with her, without a shadow of a doubt.

I am in peri menopause and have low thyroid issues.  I found the functional lab testing invaluable. Working with Michelle enabled me to understand my Gp blood tests more clearly.  Secondly, the testing gave me a way to understand all the niggly symptoms I had. Thirdly, Michelle gave me all the options on how to address this.

I’m less tired, my hair isn’t falling out, less dry skin, less irritation with my mood. I still have some ground to cover, but what I also really appreciate is having a plan & a way to approach things. It helps one feel more in control.

Michelle is very knowledgeable and thorough, her help is worth the self-investment, what you do feels targeted rather than a shot in the dark (as with googling and trying supplements by oneself).

Michelle is kind and passionate about health and really knows her stuff. I rate her highly. She is a very skilled woman.

I had felt very low and lethargic for a few months in perimenopause. I had brain fog and my hair was thinning. So I went to Doctors and had blood tests. My diagnosis was under active thyroid. I was told I would have to take prescriptive medicine for life. I was not happy with this, so I decided to seek alternative treatment.  
I informed my GP that this was my plan and he said he would be very surprised if I could get my thyroid functioning normally again.
Michelle did a thorough investigation and found that I lacked many different minerals and had high levels of metals. 
Michelle suggested her treatment and so I began that course. 
My brain fog began to ease and I felt invigorated again.
When I returned to the GP for another blood test, my thyroid was functioning normally.  My TSH went from 15 to 2.6 after working with Michelle
I worked with Michelle. She is well informed and the tests taken are so rigorous , allowing me to make simple lifestyle changes to enhance my well-being.

I LOVED working with Michelle in MenoWise Mental Fitness hub .  The course had such a positive impact on my day to day handling of stress, and old habits that bombarded my day which kept me from being productive.

Michelle did an excellent job of keeping us on track in our pod meetings, and asking pointed questions to help us think deeper about ourselves, and our responses to others.

I am so happy I made the investment  to do this program and use the app each day to keep me on track.

After our session, I feel more confident in speaking. My voice is louder and firmer. I speak with less hesitation and feel more comfortable with expressing my truth. Michelle's gentle and reassuring presence made it effortless for me to retrieve the memory related to this issue of communication. She is also very quick to guide me through the inevitable challenges that one may go through during such deep healing work. I would recommend Michelle's services to anyone who is ready for inner transformation."
