Nutritional therapy in Brandon.
For Brandon, Meadowfield and Langley Moor, Janet Ewens offers home health tests and plain spoken nutrition guidance. She is based in Washington, north of Durham, and every consultation is booked online around your working day.
Small changes for a busy household.
Brandon and Meadowfield sit side by side on the A690, a couple of miles south west of Durham City, with Langley Moor and Browney just down the bank. The pits that built these streets are long gone, but the terraces, the old Brandon Village on the hill and the strong sense of community are all still here, joined now by newer family housing.
Life in Brandon tends to be full. There is the drive into Durham or along to the A1(M), the school run, a shift on the industrial estate and tea to get on the table. In the middle of all that, niggling symptoms get ignored. Janet’s job is to help you find out what is going on and then choose changes you can actually keep to.
You will not be asked to travel. Washington is around eleven miles north of Brandon, and Janet works with people here entirely by post and online. She offers a free 30-minute call to begin with, so you can ask questions and see whether her way of working feels right before you spend a penny.

Where Janet can help.
Early starts, late teas and blood sugar
Between the units on Meadowfield Industrial Estate and the daily run into Durham, plenty of Brandon people eat when they can rather than when they should. If you are often tired after meals or reaching for something sweet mid afternoon, the Blood Sugar (HbA1c) Test offers a wider view. For £130 you receive a long term blood sugar reading, a lifestyle assessment and a Type 2 diabetes risk score to discuss with Janet.
See the HbA1c testGetting the whole family on board
It is hard to change your own habits when everyone else in the house is eating something different. Supercharge Your Journey is Janet’s 12-week programme for the whole family, priced at £649, and it is designed for exactly that problem. You can read about it on the consultations and programmes page, alongside the shorter 4-week Personalised Wellness Protocol at £149 for one person who wants a focused plan.
Consultations and programmesSomething gentler in the cupboard
Coughs, colds and sore heads do the rounds every winter, especially in a house with children at school. Janet’s natural remedies page explains the plant-based options she uses at home and how to handle them with care. They are not a substitute for seeing a doctor when you need one, but many families like having a calmer first choice for the small things.

Brandon questions.
Do you cover Meadowfield and Langley Moor as well as Brandon?
Yes. Because tests are posted and consultations are online, Janet can work with anyone in Brandon, Meadowfield, Langley Moor, Browney and the surrounding villages.
Does the blood sugar test tell me if I have diabetes?
No. It gives a long term blood sugar reading and a Type 2 diabetes risk score, which are useful starting points, but only your GP can diagnose diabetes.
I work shifts, so when can I speak to Janet?
Consultations are booked online, so you can pick a slot that fits around your rota rather than taking time off.
What does the family programme cost?
Supercharge Your Journey runs for 12 weeks and costs £649 for the whole family. If that is more than you need, the 4-week Personalised Wellness Protocol is £149.
Babylon Health Hub offers complementary health support. Tests are not a medical diagnosis and do not replace advice from your GP. Please speak to your doctor about any medical condition or before starting supplements.
