The Autoimmune Clinic
We specialise in working with autoimmune conditions and complex chronic diseases. Our expert integrated approach will get to the root cause of the condition.
What are Autoimmune Conditions?
There are currently over 80 different autoimmune conditions. The most frequently diagnosed are rheumatic diseases such as Rheumatoid Arthritis and also thyroid disorders such as Hashimoto's and Graves’ Disease.
Autoimmune conditions can affect any system of the body including the joints, bones and skin, the digestive system, the nervous system, the endocrine (hormonal) system, and can be life-altering and debilitating. By the time you are searching for support from nutritional therapy and functional medicine, it’s common to have experienced years if not decades trying to find answers through the conventional medicine route.
Your Symptoms May Vary.
Depending on the type of autoimmune condition you have, the underlying causative factors may vary considerably from patient to patient, despite there being commonly identified triggers. We will identify these causes and directly address these with personalised and targeted dietary approaches using a root cause, not a symptoms approach.
You do not have to suffer lifelong sometimes debilitating conditions of autoimmunity when functional and nutritional therapy can provide targeted long-lasting support.

At the Surrey Centre for Nutrition, we use targeted assessments, packages and testing to identify the cause of your autoimmunity, and personalised nutritional plans to get you back to health.

At times it may be appropriate for multiple practitioners to work on getting you back to optimal health.

We invite you to book a FREE discovery call with us so that we can answer any questions you might have about working together.

Surrey Centre for Nutrition’s
approach to Autoimmune conditions
Unlike conventional medicine, we are looking to understand the underlying factors to return a client to health and reverse symptoms. Identifying the true root cause of the disease, and what led the body to attack its own self-tissue will involve investigations into gut health, food and nutrition, food reactivity, pathogen and environmental toxin reactivity, chronic infections, elevated toxic load and stress and lifestyle contributory factors. Functional testing is often required to get to the root cause of what caused the onset of the autoimmune condition for each individual.
We will then use targeted approaches such as gastrointestinal healing and rebalancing, detoxification, and elimination of inflammatory foods to name just a few, and techniques to help mediate the stress response.
Our approach to functional medicine and nutrition at Surrey Centre for Nutrition
Using a functional medicine and holistic whole health approach to understand the true root cause of your symptoms, we will work with you to identify underlying nutritional deficiencies and imbalances, whilst offering a full range of the latest nutritional and functional testing. You will receive a fully bespoke and tailored nutritional, dietary and lifestyle protocol and the support and empowerment to make changes that are sustainable for a healthy future.
Working with practitioners at the Surrey Centre for Nutrition allows you to tap into their nutritional expertise alongside their functional medicine approach. Commonly, functional medicine will identify underlying nutritional imbalances and then refer you to other professionals to address these. However, Libby and her team can attend to all aspects of your health within one treatment protocol.
