We listen first
A 60 to 90 minute first session with the time to be properly heard: history, medications, sleep, digestion, energy, mood, and cycle. Pulse and tongue diagnosis follow, and you leave with a TCM working diagnosis you understand.
Nutrition & Gut Health
Nutrition & Gut Health
Functional integrative nutrition in Marylebone for women's hormonal and reproductive health, where your protocol is built from your own blood test analysis and gut microbiome testing rather than a one-size-fits-all checklist.
The short answer
What this treatment is
If you are navigating PMOS, endometriosis, infertility, or another hormonal imbalance, you already know that generic advice, "eat more vegetables", "cut out sugar", only goes so far. Your body is not generic, and your protocol should not be either.
Claudia creates individualised functional nutrition protocols built from your own blood test analysis and gut microbiome testing, so the work addresses your underlying biochemistry rather than a checklist.
Nutritional therapy runs through her other work too: it is one of the four pillars of the 12 Weeks Fertility Reset Protocol, and sits alongside Traditional Chinese Medicine where a herbal prescription is part of the picture. This page is the standalone route for women who want the nutrition and gut work on its own.
Functional nutrition
Why Test Before We Treat
Hormonal dysfunction rarely has a single cause. Inflammation, gut dysbiosis, nutrient deficiencies, and sluggish detoxification pathways all interact, often silently, to drive the symptoms you are living with. Blood work and stool or microbiome testing let us see what is happening inside your body, so every recommendation is based on data, not guesswork.
Who Claudia Works With
She supports women experiencing PMOS, endometriosis, infertility and difficulty conceiving, irregular cycles, PMS and other hormonal dysfunctions, and gut symptoms linked to hormonal imbalance such as bloating, IBS-type symptoms and food sensitivities.
Claudia is a Microba Clinical Partner. The Microbiome Explorer test is supplied and analysed by Microba and is charged separately from your consultation.

Before you book
What you'll need
- A completed intake form. The link is sent to you after booking.
- A recent blood test result. Your own copy is fine, there is no need for a referral through us.
- Access to Microba for your functional test, ordered after Session 1.
At your first appointment there is time to be properly heard
Your history, your cycle, your energy, and what matters to you. The first session runs 60 to 90 minutes depending on the service: medical history, current medications, sleep, digestion, energy, mood, and your menstrual cycle where relevant. Pulse and tongue diagnosis follow, and from this we arrive at a TCM working diagnosis you understand.
You leave with a written summary of what was done, why, and the plan for your next session.
Claudia provides the best lymphatic drainage massage in London. She can scan your body like no one else. I almost fell asleep during my 90-minute session — the time flew by. Thank you Claudia!

Claudia is a true healer! I arrived very tense after a long flight and she was able to help calm and reset my nervous system. I highly recommend the 1-hour lymphatic massage.

I had a great lymphatic drainage session with Claudia. After having sinus surgery to remove polyps and dealing with congestion, I felt so much better after the session. Highly recommend!

Your journey
with Body Perfected
Every plan starts with being properly heard. We find what is driving your picture, treat it with the right combination of pillars, and evolve the plan with you as your body responds.
Treatment, tailored to you
Acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, tuina, manual lymphatic drainage, herbal formula: chosen for your TCM diagnosis, not by default. Sessions run 60 to 75 minutes, and you leave each one with a written summary of what was done and why.
We evolve with you
Pulse, tongue, and current symptoms are reassessed at every visit, and the toolkit and herbal formula adjust as the picture shifts. Plans are agreed in 6-week or 12-week blocks, so you always know where you are in the arc.
Care that lasts
As things settle, treatment moves to a maintenance frequency: keeping your cycle, energy, and recovery steady. Where you have a GP, fertility clinic, or surgeon involved, we coordinate with them throughout.
Integrative care that treats the cause of your symptoms. Rooted in 2,000 years of Chinese medicine, delivered for modern life, from Marylebone since 2010.

What These Protocols Are Designed to Do
- Target underlying inflammation: identifying and addressing dietary, gut, and metabolic drivers of chronic low-grade inflammation that can disrupt hormone signalling and reproductive health
- Increase antioxidative capacity: supporting the body's ability to neutralise oxidative stress, a factor implicated in conditions like endometriosis and infertility
- Promote better liver and gut detoxification: supporting the pathways responsible for clearing excess hormones and metabolic by-products
- Built on data: blood work and microbiome testing rather than symptom-guessing
- See Claudia herself every visit: never passed around

FAQ
Common
questions
What does the Complete Gut & Nutrition Audit cost?
The package is £250. That covers both sessions and the written protocol document you keep. Any functional test, for example GI-MAP, is bought separately through Microba and paid directly to them. Blood tests are the ones you already have, so this package adds no lab cost.
How long does the whole package take?
Session 1 runs 60 to 75 minutes and covers your intake, your goals and your blood test audit. Session 2 runs 60 to 90 minutes and delivers your protocol and meal plan. The gap between them is set by your laboratory turnaround, which is a few weeks.
Do I need the microbiome test to work with Claudia?
No. The test sharpens the picture, but the protocol can be built from your blood work, your history, and your symptoms alone. Claudia will tell you honestly whether testing is likely to change what she recommends before you spend anything on it.
What does the Microbiome Explorer test actually look at?
It reports on gastrointestinal symptoms including constipation, abdominal pain, bloating, gas and diarrhoea, plus digestive function, gut inflammation, intestinal permeability, systemic inflammation, immunity, and suspected gut infection. It is a comprehensive stool-based test, collected at home and analysed by Microba, and results take a few weeks to come back.
Is the test included in the consultation fee?
No. All Microba tests are charged separately from your consultation fee. The Microbiome Explorer, which is the comprehensive tier, is £399. Claudia is a Microba Clinical Partner, so she has a commercial relationship with the laboratory and tells you that up front rather than leaving you to find out.
Do I need to bring my own blood tests?
Yes, blood test analysis works from results you provide, whether from your GP or a private panel. If you do not have recent bloods, Claudia will tell you which markers are worth requesting so the analysis has something useful to work with.
Can this run alongside my fertility treatment?
Yes. Nutritional work is designed to run alongside GP or fertility-clinic care, and Claudia never recommends stopping prescribed medication. Where you are in an active IVF or IUI cycle, the timing of changes and the supplement choices are both adjusted around your clinic's own protocol.
