About Liz McWatt

Liz McWatt, Nutritional Therapy, Homeopathy, Flower Essences and Aromatherapy in Kendal & Carlisle Cumbria, and Clitheroe Lancashire

An enthusiastic and experienced practitioner, I have been in private practice since 1996. A Registered General Nurse and professionally qualified in Nutritional Therapy, Homeopathy, Aromatherapy and Therapeutic Massage, I have a wide range of skills with which to support you in achieving an optimal level of health, sense of well-being and vitality.

My own personal interest in Nutrition and complementary therapies first started whilst I was a student nurse. During this time I experienced health problems associated with severe allergy symptoms. I sought the support of an Aromatherapist to help alleviate my symptoms; she was the first person to suggest that the food I was eating might have some bearing on my health. As a result I made changes to my diet which had a significantly beneficial effect on not only my symptoms but my sense of well being and energy levels as well – my passion for complementary therapies was born!

One of the reasons I am so passionate about complementary therapies is that they not only encourage us to take some responsibility for our own health and well-being, but that they can help empower us to lead more fulfilling and rewarding lives as well.

My nursing background is in Occupational Health and Rehabilitation – I have a strong interest in health promotion and a personal philosophy that prevention is better than cure and that vibrant health is a result of nourishing our bodies and our minds and living our lives to the full.

Committed to ongoing education I have studied in depth and hold diplomas in Nutritional Medicine, Homeopathy, Aromatherapy and Therapeutic Massage. As part of my professional training I have also studied Flower Essences, the use of Complex Homeopathic Remedies and Counselling.

Aware of the importance of keeping up to date with the latest research and techniques and learning new skills, I continue to attend seminars and courses on a regular basis. I have attended many professional seminars covering a wide range of subjects, including:

• Candida & Allergies
• Working with Infertility
• Safe use of supplements during pregnancy and in young children
• Bowel Cleansing
• Liver support & health
• Menstrual Disorders and Hormonal Health
• Assessing and Managing Depression Effectively
• Musculoskeletal Disorders
• Support for complex and chronic diseases
• Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
• Thyroid health and Iodine deficiency
• Gluten intolerance and coeliac disease
• Abundant Energy
