Nourish your body to live your best life. Dietitians are experts in food nutrition who provide guidance on how to treat and manage a range of health conditions at any stage of life. With food and nutrition at the core of our physical, social, and emotional wellbeing, dietitians offer something for everyone to get the most out of your everyday life.
Our Dietitian, Emily Drew, is the perfect support to take you on a fully individualised journey to a positive and healthy relationship with food. With a minefield of nutritional messaging out there, it can be confusing to navigate the best approach to food for you. Emily employs an empathetic and practical approach backed by scientific research, to ensure that your personal nutrition needs for general health and wellbeing are met. Emily can help you understand how good nutrition can improve the management of medical conditions or maximise your health and performance – both on and off the sporting field.
Our Dietitian works with adolescents and adults of all abilities, ensuring you have the tools to make the best choices for yourself and your family. Emily will help you to understand nutrition science and use food to promote health, prevent disease and manage nutrition-related health conditions. Using her knowledge in nutrition, human development and disease prevention, she will help you develop lifelong skills to optimise your health fully.
We will embark on a thorough dietetic assessment - taking into consideration things like your individual nutritional and medical needs, your lifestyle, the relationship that food plays in your life, any specific performance requirements, and other factors that influence what you eat. More food-cheerleader than food-police, we will guide you towards a positive relationship with food and nutrition that is personalised to you, with no rigid and unrealistic plans – prepare to say goodbye to diet culture forever!
