Richard
I saw Amanda with what must be fairly typical symptoms ie lacking in energy, sore eyes, general malaise etc.
Her advice has proved to be not only spot on but has virtually alleviated all my symptoms with a combination of diet, vitamin supplements and lifestyle. There was me thinking it was the credit crunch that was leading to my symptoms………………….

Going to see Amanda was definitely one of the most constructive things I have done for myself. I had a problem relationship with food from an early age. I suffered from acne, I was constantly tried and lethargic, I had bad mood swings, my hair was falling out and my periods had stopped. I just started to feel really unwell. My meeting with Amanda started by going through the comprehensive questionnaire and food diary I was asked to complete beforehand.
Amanda was immediately able to identify what the potential problems were and she explained them to me in a way that was clear and understandable so I was under no illusions about the damage I was doing to my body. She gave me realistic suggestions about what to eat for each meal. Her approach was very collaborative, if I said I did not like something or if I was not prepared to eat something in light of my issues with food she suggested more realistic alternatives. My lifestyle was also taken into account and she gave me suggestions for what to choose when eating out, suggestions for ready made foods and loads of delicious recipe ideas. The day after we met, she sent me everything in writing and it has been invaluable to have something to refer to. In addition Amanda has provided ongoing email support in response to my queries and questions.
I have not found sticking to the suggestions difficult at all, partly because it was so realistic. I know it sounds cliché but I seriously started to feel better after a week and I had a period after two!! My skins looks brighter, my hair looks fuller and I feel more energised….people have even started to notice! I seriously even feel like my vision has improved! I am learning I can eat more without gaining loads of weight. I can’t recommend the service I was provided enough, my health has improved tenfold and I am looking forward to see what else is suggested in my next consultation!

The session included an in-depth questionnaire which pinpointed strengths and weaknesses in my diet. After the session I also received a written write up of the session, invaluable for future reference.

Dorothy Nesbit
I had no idea how much these adjustments would enrich my life and for this I’m deeply grateful.
Wow! Eighteen months after my consultation with you my weight is close to my optimum level and my fitness and energy levels have improved markedly. No diets! I have just made small adjustments over time to my eating habits and to create space for activities I enjoy (my “exercise”). I know I’m on track – for life.
I had no idea how much these adjustments would enrich my life and for this I’m deeply grateful.
Thank you, too, for helping me make it so easy.
Maria Costa
The greatest achievement though was the absence of headaches. Being free now from these headaches makes the whole programme worthwhile.
The greatest achievement though was the absence of headaches. I’d always suffered from them for years. I remember once having a headache which lasted over three weeks; I’d go to bed and wake up with it the next day. Doctors suggested paracetemol throughout the day which made absolutely no difference; so I suffered. Being free now from these headaches makes the whole programme worthwhile.
Paula Kane
I don’t know why people don’t take control of their health in this way. It’s made a huge difference to my daily life.
The information I learnt from Kenny was communicated clearly and concisely and made such sense to me that it was a real awakening! I don’t know why people don’t take control of their health in this way. It’s made a huge difference to my daily life.
Many thanks
Adam Harvey
I not only realise the error of my ways but I felt 1000 times better.
I always thought I could get away with eating what I wanted because I exercise a lot. After spending time at ‘In Spa’ and chatting with Kenny. I not only realise the error of my ways but I felt 1000 times better, mainly from eating the right foods and eating when I’m fairly hungry. Kenny was incredibly knowledgeable and provided me with the relevant diet specific for me. A lesson i’ll never forget.

UrBod really listened to what I wanted to achieve from my session and tailored a plan to suit me, which allows me to be flexible.
Although I already lead a fairly healthy lifestyle, I wanted to know how the foods I eat affect my energy levels, and what sorts of food I should be eating in order to feel full, have plenty of energy for exercise, whilst not putting weight on. UrBod really listened to what I wanted to achieve from my session and tailored a plan to suit me, which allows me to be flexible. I am already feeling the benefits of changing the way I eat, and won’t hesitate to recommend UrBod to family and friends.
