Functional Fertility
Specialisms
My work integrates several areas of expertise, in particular Functional Fertility, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Functional Medicine to create deeply personalised care. After taking an in-depth health history and using diagnostic testing where appropriate, I design tailored protocols that support reproductive health, hormonal balance and whole-body wellbeing through every stage bases on your unique requirements.
Functional Fertility
A root-cause approach to fertility that looks beyond timelines and protocols.
Functional fertility supports your reproductive health by addressing the hormonal, metabolic, emotional and lifestyle factors that influence conception and pregnancy outcomes.
I support individuals and couples trying to conceive naturally, navigating unexplained infertility, or preparing for and undergoing assisted fertility treatments such as IVF.
This approach supports:
• Pre-conception health and cycle regulation
• Unexplained infertility and recurrent challenges
• IVF and assisted reproduction support
• Pregnancy preparation and early pregnancy care
• Inclusive fertility care for LGBTQ+ individuals and couples
Each journey begins with a thorough assessment of your health history, cycle patterns, stress levels and lifestyle. From there, personalised protocols may include acupuncture, nutrition, functional testing, herbal medicine and targeted lifestyle guidance — all aimed at optimising reproductive function and supporting your body’s natural capacity to conceive.
Traditional Chinese Medicine: Acupuncture, Five Element Nutrition & Herbal Medicine
An ancient medical system that treats the whole person, not just the symptoms.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) works by restoring balance within the body, supporting circulation, energy flow and hormonal harmony.
TCM forms the foundation of much of my practice. I use it to support fertility, hormonal health, emotional wellbeing and long-term vitality across all stages of life.
TCM support includes:
Acupuncture to regulate cycles, reduce stress and improve blood flow to reproductive organs
Customised Chinese herbal formulas tailored to your unique constitution
Five Element nutrition guidance to support digestion, energy, immune health and emotional balance
This holistic approach is particularly effective for menstrual health, fertility support, pregnancy wellness, menopause and stress-related conditions. By addressing patterns of imbalance rather than isolated symptoms, TCM helps the body return to a more resilient, self-regulating state.
Functional Medicine: Nutrition, Supplements & Hormonal Balance
Modern, science-based care that focuses on why symptoms are happening.
Functional Medicine identifies and addresses the underlying systems influencing hormones, fertility, energy and overall health. I am currently qualifying as a Functional Medicine Certified Professional with the Institute for Functional Medicine (IFM).
This approach integrates advanced testing, personalised nutrition and targeted supplementation to support long-term hormonal balance and wellbeing.
Functional medicine support focuses on:
Hormonal health across life stages, including perimenopause, menopause and andropause
Thyroid, adrenal and metabolic balance
Personalised nutrition plans to support blood sugar, inflammation and gut health
Evidence-based supplement protocols tailored to your physiology
By understanding how your body responds to stress, nutrition and environmental influences, I create strategies that support sustainable health – whether your goal is fertility, hormonal balance, or feeling more like yourself again.
