Martin Cohen
Registered Nutritional Therapist
Wilmslow & Manchester
My journey towards a health-conscious way of living was not triggered by my own wellbeing. It was through seeing the challenges members of my close family were faced with. I was convinced there was another form of healthcare.
Conventional medicine can be life-saving in so many cases. For example, a car accident or a heart attack. However, for chronic conditions I thought there had to be another way. One that looked at the individual and took into account their lifestyle, diet and environment.
It was during my training that I began to change my own diet and I noticed an increase in energy and my sleep improved. These were issues I wasn’t even aware I was having. I’d simply become used to feeling tired and thought that was normal. This further opened my eyes to the potential of nutrition to benefit so many. Not only people with diagnosed conditions but also for those looking to optimize their health and reduce their risk of developing disease.
As I began to see clients it became very clear that supporting those living gastrointestinal conditions such as IBS was my passion. This seemed to be the area where people felt the most frustration. Their digestion wasn’t right but no one could tell them what was wrong. I now specialise in Digestive Support. It’s by treating each client as an individual and by digging down to find the underlying cause of their issue that long-lasting changes are made.
