The body knows how to heal — my work is to help it remember how.
Restoring health, resilience, and energy begins by working with our bodies’ wisdom — listening carefully, understanding what it’s asking for, and responding with clarity.
I am Sandra, a Naturopath and Natural Medicine Practitioner.
I see health as a whole-person process. Not just a set of symptoms, but a story unfolding across the nervous system, emotions, and physiology. My work combines nutritional therapy, functional medicine, nervous system regulation, energy-based approaches, and Autonomic Response Testing (ART).
## Why work with me
Many people I work with arrive feeling tired, overwhelmed, and unsure why their body feels “off.” Some have tried everything — the diets, the supplements, the testing — and still feel stuck. Others don’t yet know what’s wrong, only that they don’t feel at home in their bodies anymore.
In these cases, it’s not that the body is broken — it’s often that something is blocking its ability to regulate and heal. Together we can identify the stressors the body is managing and what it needs most.
What makes my work different is how I combine body-led muscle testing (Autonomic Response Testing) with Functional Medicine, food as medicine, targeted functional testing when needed, and energy work alongside Dr Klinghardt’s 5 Levels of Healing model.
This approach helps us focus on what your body needs most— from restoring natural rhythms, clearing long term infections to easing stored stress and toxic load - whilst always focusing on the connections between the nervous system, emotions, and physiology.

I## Who I work with
Many people come to me after months or years of feeling unwell. Many have diagnoses like- Lyme, migraines, auto-immunity or long-Covid. Others experience hormonal shifts, gut issues, fatigue or pain. Health for me, isn’t about suppressing symptoms; it’s about seeing the whole picture -and how your nervous system, emotional health and physiology work together.
## How I work
My work is guided by naturopathic principles—an approach that explores why symptoms occur, not just how to mask them. I listen for the patterns, the deeper causes, and the quiet ways the body shows us what it needs to feel safe and restore itself.
We work step by step- without rigid protocols -whether that’s detoxification, gut repair, resolving stored stress, calming immune overactivity, clearing infections or restoring nourishment and balance. Functional testing (blood, stool, urine) can also be arranged where it brings clarity.
We will also work to reconnect you with your body’s signals and rebuilding the core rhythms that drive energy, digestion, sleep, and repair — the foundations of resilience and recovery.
## The body’s capacity to guide us
Every cell in your body is constantly making choices — directing energy, repairing, and defending against threats. Your gut influences mood, your immune system learns and adapts, and your tissues hold the imprint of your experiences. Yet many of us have been taught to override these signals and mistrust what we feel.
This work is about rebuilding trust in our bodies. When we listen and work with them, lasting change becomes possible.
About Me and Why I Do This Work
## Why I care about this work
My own health challenges taught me how it feels to be uncertain and overwhelmed in trying to determine what the right thing to do. I have experienced post-viral chronic fatigue, gut symptoms that did not respond to standard approaches, migraines, exhaustion, and burnout. There was a time when I felt disconnected from my body and overwhelmed by advice and options that did not help.
Learning to slow down and rebuild trust in my body was a turning point, alongside understanding what was really happening — this included which infections were an issue, my personal metabolic needs to hormonal patterns and how past & ancestral trauma were stored and expressing. Discovering the right approaches for me, and learning how to work with my body & nervous system, changed everything.
This experience continues to shape how I practice and support others — I want to help people understand what is happening in their bodies, rebuild safety and trust, and create the right conditions for their bodies to find balance & feel energised and well.
My deep curiosity and love of learning also underpin my work, guiding me to continually explore why something is happening, incorporating new ways and approaches which are often gentler and more cost-effective.
## Ways we can work together
I offer three‑month one-to-one programmes with online consultations, in‑person ART sessions, and ongoing coaching support. You can read more about this [here].
In this focused work with you I integrate Autonomic Response Testing (A.R.T.), Functional Medicine, Energy medicine, Biomagnetism, Circadian biology, Nutritional Therapy, and lifestyle practices. – to identify the root causes and create the right conditions for recovery alongside restoring the natural rhythms that support energy, digestion, sleep, and repair.
This integrated approach helps us focus on what matters most, without unnecessary complexity, whilst making sure you are supported throughout.
I also run Group programmes to help restore rest, rhythm, and resilience in a supportive community as we explore the foundations of health. Details are [here]. This work helps us reconnect with the body’s signals and restore the rhythms that underpin energy, digestion, sleep, and repair — the foundations of resilience and recovery.
