Nutritional therapy in Ryton.
Gentle, evidence-led support for Ryton, Crawcrook and Greenside. Janet Ewens works from Washington, eleven miles to the south east, and everything from the test kit to the consultation reaches you at home.
A quieter corner, the same careful help.
Ryton is about as far west as Gateshead goes, where the borough turns green and the Tyne runs wide below the village. The old green, the spire of Holy Cross Church and the paths down to Ryton Willows give it a settled, unhurried feel that people move here for and rarely want to leave.
A good number of residents are retired or getting close to it, and many more travel out along the A695 to work each morning. Both groups can find the same things creeping in: joints that ache more than they used to, sleep that is lighter, a stomach that has become fussy about foods it once handled without complaint.
Janet takes those small complaints seriously. She will ask about your meals, your routine and your history, and suggest a home test only if it is likely to be useful. She is eleven miles away in Washington, but a free 30-minute call brings the conversation to your own living room.

Where Janet can help.
Riverside walks and winter daylight
A walk through Ryton Willows or along the Keelman’s Way beside the Tyne is one of the pleasures of living here. In the short days of a northern winter, though, even keen walkers see little strong sun. The Vitamin D Test is a home finger prick test for £65, consultation included. It gives you and Janet a real figure to talk about, which is better than taking a supplement on a hunch.
See the Vitamin D TestFoods that no longer agree with you
Many people notice, somewhere past fifty, that bread, milk or a glass of wine does not sit the way it used to. Guessing which food is to blame can take months. The Sensitivity and Intolerance Test looks at more than 1,200 items from a small sample of hair, covering foods, additives, metals, nutrients and gut health. Janet then spends an hour with you turning the report into a short list of things to try.
About the sensitivity testFour weeks with a plan of your own
Some people in Ryton and Crawcrook would simply like someone to look at the whole picture. The 4-week Personalised Wellness Protocol costs £149 and gives you a month of guidance built on your own habits and goals. Changes are small and realistic, the sort you can keep going when the month is over. A single private consultation, at £55, is there if you would rather start with one conversation.

Ryton questions.
Is Ryton too far out for Janet to help?
Not at all. Janet is in Washington, around eleven miles away, and because the work is done by post and online it makes no difference where in the borough you live.
I am retired. Is this aimed at people my age?
Janet works with adults of all ages. Small, steady changes to food and routine can be worth making at any stage of life.
What is included in the £65 Vitamin D Test?
The finger prick kit, the lab analysis and a results consultation with Janet are all included.
Can the hair sample test tell me if I have an allergy?
No. It is a sensitivity and intolerance test, not an allergy test. If you suspect an allergy, please see your GP.
