Nutritional therapy in Peterlee.

Home health tests and realistic nutrition support for Peterlee, from Janet Ewens of Babylon Health Hub in Washington. Take a test at home, talk through the results online and decide what to change first.

Local to Peterlee

A new town with room to breathe.

Peterlee was founded in 1948 to give mining families better homes, and it took its name from Peter Lee, the miners’ leader. It is still a town of proper neighbourhoods, from Acre Rigg and Howletch to Passfield and Oakerside, with Victor Pasmore’s Apollo Pavilion at Sunny Blunts and the wooded gorge of Castle Eden Dene along its southern edge.

The people who live here work hard, often on shifts, and health tends to get attention only when something goes wrong. Janet Ewens would like to change that. She spent 30 years with IBS, headaches and chronic fatigue, and now uses simple tests and small, steady changes to help others feel more like themselves.

Janet works from Washington, about twelve miles north west by the A19. Nobody in Peterlee, Horden or Shotton Colliery needs to drive there, because kits come by post and consultations happen online. You begin with a free 30-minute call, where Janet listens first and only then suggests what might be worth testing.

Janet explains what your results mean and agrees a simple plan with you. Re-test later to see the difference your changes make.

Support for Peterlee

Where Janet can help.

Rotating shifts and blood sugar

Peterlee’s industrial estates run around the clock, and rotating shifts make regular meals almost impossible. Eating at three in the morning, then trying to sleep through the day, can leave anyone running on sugar and caffeine. The Blood Sugar (HbA1c) Test uses a finger prick sample to show your long term blood sugar, and adds a lifestyle assessment and a Type 2 diabetes risk score, so any changes are based on something solid.

Workshops for the factory floor and the office

From the big manufacturing sites on the North West Industrial Estate to the offices and shops around Castle Dene Shopping Centre, Peterlee employs thousands of people. Janet’s corporate wellness workshops bring straightforward ideas about food, energy and sleep into the workplace, in language everyone can follow. Tell Janet a little about your workplace and she will suggest what might suit it.

Corporate workshops

Under the trees in Castle Eden Dene

Castle Eden Dene is one of the finest walks in County Durham, a deep wooded valley running down to the sea. It is good for body and mind, although shaded paths and northern winters do not help much with vitamin D. The Vitamin D Test is a £65 finger prick test done at home, and the consultation that comes with it covers whether a supplement makes sense for you.

FAQs

Peterlee questions.

I work nights. When can I speak to Janet?

Consultations are booked online, so you can choose a time that fits around your shifts. The tests themselves take only a few minutes at home.

Can Janet run a wellness session for our staff?

Janet offers corporate wellness workshops for workplaces. Send her a message about your team and she will explain how a session could work.

What will the HbA1c test show?

It shows your long term blood sugar and comes with a lifestyle assessment and a Type 2 diabetes risk score. It is a guide for lifestyle changes, not a diagnosis, so share the result with your GP.

Are there any hidden costs?

None. The Blood Sugar, Omega Balance and Sensitivity tests are £130 each and the Vitamin D Test is £65, and each price includes the results consultation.

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.
