Autoimmune and Modern Medicine

When did you last visit your doctor? Most conventional doctors today will solely focus on chemical components using medication.

There are endless ways to influence the body using this standard of care, such as artificially manipulating inflammation, vital hormones, and many of the other essential chemical processes within the body.

This is all done with one common goal: covering up the symptoms.

Few doctors will suggest yoga, mindfulness, meditation or discuss your diet with you.

On the other hand, functional medicine doctors address the origin of disease to ensure comprehensive and effective treatment. Covering up the symptoms should never be considered or disguised as a cure.

Health Coaches will discuss all elements of your life with you and, over a designated period, help you implement slowly, sustained changes that will improve your life, health, and well-being. These elements combine in empowering you to take back control of your body and your health from your autoimmune disease.

I hope you have enjoyed this information. Until next time!

Facebook Support Group

A Facebook group set up to support those living with Autoimmune Diseases or are living gluten-free, dairy-free life.

Emma Alexander-Cook

My name's Emma. I've been living gluten-free for over 25 years, and I've been dairy-free for over five years.

Health and Auto-immune Diseases

I have auto-immune diseases and expected to be on medicine for the rest of my life, but I didn't want to live like that. My rheumatology Doctor was so supportive of the change I wanted to make, and with their help, I now manage my auto-immune diseases by being strict with my diet.

It can be quite frightening when you first find out you have to change the way you eat but for some of us' Food is our medicine.'

I have several websites, write blogs, and I'm currently in the process of writing a book.

I trained to be Holistic Health Coach, Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Certified Gluten Free Practitioner in order to heal myself, my family and others who find themselves on the same journey as myself.

Photography

Our love for photography started on our travels. We wanted to capture images of the areas we travelled to both for our own records and for our family back at home. Some of these images were reproduced as watercolours. Our favourite images we display at home and friends often asked where we had purchased the pictures! Now you can purchase them online directly from us.

Coaching and Consultancy

Previously an IT Manager my skill set has come in very handy as I am both a Health Coach and also offer consultancy for small business starts up and fellow Health Coaches. This has included building websites and online profiles.

Our Family

Family is everything to me! We have a family of four boys where the age difference between the youngest and the eldest is 18 years. Two of our sons are also Gluten Free and Dairy Free. Emma is a Health Coach who specialises in helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals. Ian runs his own business which began developing a Race Timer for diecast model cars.
