Nutrition Consultations
Your symptoms are your body’s cryptic way of saying “we need to talk”.
Now, let me help you translate.
Initial Consultation
(1 hour 15 mins / $180)
After discussing your initial concerns, Alyse will ask you a diverse range of questions relating to your health history, dietary patterns and lifestyle choices in a bid to gain an understanding as to what’s occurring on both a physical, emotional and chemical level.
Before the appointment concludes Alyse will spend time explaining your case in detail. To do this successfully, she uses a wide variety of analogies and diagrams to help translate your symptoms into something that is easy to understand. Once you’re both on the same page, she will discuss dietary and lifestyle advice, as well as a script and any further testing if required.
Return Consultation
(45 mins / $100)
Return consultations will then be scheduled roughly every 4-6 weeks.
During these consultations you will both spend time revising your health concerns, reviewing recent pathology or test results, addressing any barriers to change as well as providing additional education as to how to improve your health as a whole.
This will conclude with an update to both your prescription and treatment plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer testing?
Yes, testing is offered by POA on Consultation.
As a qualified health professional, I have access to a full range of functional testing. These are provided on a strictly case by case basis. Some of the tests in which I offer are listed below:
- GI Mapping: The GI-MAP stool analysis evaluates the DNA of the organisms living within the gut using advanced qPCR technology for a fascinating insight into the gut structure and integrity as well as the microbiome. This test assesses presence of parasites, bacteria, fungi, yeasts, viruses and your commensal species. Based on the results of this test and your symptoms, we develop a treatment plan tailored to you as an individual.
- Organic Acids Testing: The Organic Acids Test offers a comprehensive metabolic snapshot of a patient’s health with 75 markers. It provides an evaluation of intestinal yeast and bacteria as well as markers for vitamin and mineral levels, oxidative stress, neurotransmitter levels, and oxalates.
- DUTCH Hormone Testing: This test provides a comprehensive look at adrenal and sex hormones as well as how they’re metabolised. This test may help address the underlying reasons for fatigue, hormone and fertility challenges, sleep issues and more.
- Food Intolerance Testing
- Heavy Metals Testing
