Joanne Smale

Joanne believes the foundation of health starts with good nutrition. For her, this means finding a sustainable balance between enjoying life and giving your body what it genuinely needs to thrive.

As a Registered Nutritional Therapy Practitioner using a functional medicine approach, Joanne's goal is to identify and address the root cause of your health challenges, not just the symptoms, using evidence-based nutrition and lifestyle strategies.

She views the body as a web of interconnected systems in constant communication, including the nervous, immune, digestive, and hormonal systems. When one falls out of sync, the ripple effects show up everywhere: low energy, poor sleep, mood changes, skin flare-ups, digestive issues, to name a few.

Joanne's approach is to get to the root of these imbalances, using targeted nutrition and lifestyle strategies to help restore balance. Much like a detective, she takes time to carefully piece together clues from your full health history, including your diet, lifestyle, environment, and any underlying health issues, to build a complete picture of your health.

She considers each client unique, recommending personalised nutrition and lifestyle programmes rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, taking into account your health journey, goals, lifestyle and dietary preferences to build a sustainable plan that works for you. Joanne may also use functional testing to inform her nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement recommendations.

Her area of special interest is fertility nutrition, helping couples and individuals on their journey to parenthood. It's her mission to raise awareness of the vital role preconception care plays for both men and women in optimising fertility, improving pregnancy outcomes, and shaping the future health of their child.
