Hi, I’m Rom.
Your friendly neighbourhood health detective.

About
Hi, I’m Romy Sheppard,
A Bachelor Qualified Nutritionist (BHSc Nut).
After living with several chronic health conditions for over 10 years, I have utilised nutritional medicine to not only survive, but thrive.
Each person has their own individual “root causes” that contribute to their recurring and chronic health conditions.
It’s my mission to get to the bottom of these, and I’ll work as your own private health detective utilising your blood pathology, clinical history and functional testing to figure out what ‘ails ya!
I focus on achievable and sustainable dietary and lifestyle changes, and individually tailored nutritional supplementation to help get you well, and stay well.
