Mental health is a very important part of your health. Imbalances in neurotransmitters in the brain can cause symptoms such as depression, anxiety, insomnia, irritability, sadness, tiredness, loss of motivation, anger, addictive behaviour, aggression, sugar or alcohol cravings, and many more.

Mental illness such as depression, anxiety, stress, sleep disorders and other psychological conditions are examined from a biochemical perspective, the causes are explored, and treated based on individual situations. Heavy metal toxicity, nutritional deficiencies, gut infection, allergies, inflammation and a history of stress can all be triggers.

You may have heard of some of the many brain neurotransmitters that include serotonin and dopamine, all of which need to be in balance for you to feel happy, calm and content. These brain neurotransmitters can become imbalanced when we go through stress (especially chronic continued stress), when we are suffering nutrient deficiencies and when we eat a poor diet. Depending on the case, these imbalances can be corrected using nutritional therapy, detoxification and counselling if required.

Combining testing available at Informed Health Nutritional Wellbeing Centre such as the ESTECK system and pathology tests, we are able to get an accurate picture of what is going on in the brain to give you the best treatment available for mental health issues. This testing regime is comprehensive and completely rules out guesswork, giving us a head start on treatment without wasting time and money trying unnecessary treatments.

Anyone wishing to find out more about their health is welcome to a free 30 minute consultation to chat about how we can help you.  Please quote promotional code MH30 when requesting this appointment by phone. If you believe our treatments may be of benefit, you may then decide to go ahead and book an initial consultation, where we will take a case history of each and every system of the body to find out what initially caused the imbalance that lead to a decline in health. Once we have an overall picture of how your body is working, we can then tailor a treatment plan to regain your health.

“I sought help from Fiona to combat long term depression. A combination of change in diet and introduction of nutritional supplements saw an immediate change in my mood, energy levels and motivation. Fiona was clear and concise in her advice and made herself available for assistance and advice at all times. I would happily recommend Informed Health to anyone.”
