About Julie Deeks
Julie’s own health issues and an interest in a more integrated approach to health led her to the science of nutrition. Nutrition is an evidence based medicine which addresses underlying imbalances and deficiencies to bring about health and freedom from your symptoms. Julie has experience with female health conditions, digestive health and thyroid and adrenal issues, which are often underlying causes of weight gain.
Julie was a dancer until she was 19 and now enjoys the benefits of Yoga and Pilates; she has a flare for gluten-free and dairy-free baking, a great asset to her clients on exclusion diets.
Julie’s particular areas of Focus
Julie has been studying and exploring how nutrition and functional medicine can help those with auto-immune conditions, which are fast becoming the most diagnosed illness in UK. She now sees many clients with auto-immune conditions, who are looking for an alternative approach.
Julie continues to improve her knowledge with professional development and attends many conferences and seminars to ensure she has the most up to date information to support her busy practice. She is also a regional co-ordinator for BANT and chairs quarterly meetings with local therapists to discuss current issues in the media, local opportunities and to share knowledge and experience to strengthen the support offered by BANT.
