Nutritional therapy in Longbenton.
Home health tests and straightforward nutrition advice for Longbenton and Benton, from Janet Ewens in Washington. Ideal if long days indoors have left you tired, bloated or simply not feeling like yourself.
Looking after the people who keep things running.
Longbenton is a working community. Generations of local people have clocked in at the big government offices at Benton Park View, known to everyone as the Ministry, and newer employers have followed at Quorum and Balliol business parks. The Metro at Longbenton and Four Lane Ends carries commuters in both directions every day.
Office and shift work can be harder on the body than it looks. Hours at a screen, lunch from a vending machine and very little daylight in winter add up. Janet Ewens spent 30 years living with IBS, headaches and chronic fatigue, so she takes those nagging, low level symptoms seriously and helps you look into them properly.
Janet is based in Washington, roughly eight miles to the south across the Tyne. Her tests are done at home and sent to a lab by post, and consultations are booked online, so you can fit everything around work. Whether you are in Longbenton, Benton, Forest Hall or West Moor, the first step is a free 30-minute call.

Where Janet can help.
Wellbeing for local workplaces
From the long established office sites around Benton Park View to the firms on Quorum and Balliol business parks, this corner of North Tyneside has a great many people working under one roof. Janet’s corporate wellness workshops are designed for workplaces that want to give staff something useful: realistic ideas about eating, energy and looking after yourself during a demanding working week. Managers and wellbeing leads are welcome to get in touch.
Corporate workshopsLeaving in the dark, home in the dark
In December many people here reach their desks before sunrise and leave after sunset, so the skin sees almost no daylight for weeks. Vitamin D is one thing that can dip as a result. The Vitamin D Test costs £65, takes a finger prick at home and includes a consultation, giving you a clear idea of where you stand before you spend money on supplements.

Sandwich meal deals, biscuits in the team kitchen and a third coffee by two o’clock: it is a familiar pattern. If you regularly feel bloated or foggy after lunch, the Sensitivity and Intolerance Test offers a way to look closer. It checks over 1,200 items from a small hair sample, including foods, additives and gut health, and Janet takes a full hour to go through the report with you.

Longbenton questions.
Can I take a test without missing work?
Yes. Tests are done at home in a few minutes and posted to the lab, and you book your consultation online.
Would Janet run a session for our office?
Janet offers corporate wellness workshops for workplaces. Send her a message with a few details about your team and she will come back to you.
Why test vitamin D instead of just taking a tablet?
A test shows your own level, so decisions about supplements are based on a result and not a guess. It is sensible to mention any supplements to your GP as well.
What does the sensitivity test not do?
It is not an allergy test and it does not diagnose any condition. It is a starting point for changes to food and lifestyle, and suspected allergies should always go to your GP.
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.
