Lisa Sayers is a CNHC and BANT registered BSc nutritional therapist,
nutrigenetics counsellor, ACSM certified exercise physiologist/health fitness
specialist, sports massage therapist, Stott Pilates instructor, Neuro-Linguistic
Programming (NLP) practitioner, CHEK practitioner, former qualified general
nurse and venepuncturist working as a personal trainer and nutritional therapist
in Henley-on-Thames, Reading, Marlow (Oxfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire).
Lisa qualified as a nurse in 1988, began working in the fitness and health
industry in 2003 and has been running her own successful practice since 2005.
She regularly teaches in a number of locations including Drummond physiotherapy
clinic and Drummond Education, and has published several articles for them and
other local health related practices. Lisa now operates from her own air
conditioned and well equipped studio and consulting room in Henley-on-Thames
where there is private parking available. Lisa’s unique skill sets allow her to
take a multidisciplinary and holistic approach to help clients with all types of
needs move towards their health and fitness goals. Clients vary from teenagers
to the elderly, and range from the able bodied seeking to improve an aspect of
their well-being to those suffering from disease, metabolic disorders or in
recovery from injury or surgery. Here Lisa is able to offer help drawing upon a
range of specialisms including biomechanical analysis, strength training,
dietary analysis and programming, nutri-genetic counselling (which enables her
to understand an individual genetic strengths and weaknesses-which may impact on
health and performance), disease and weight management, back pain management,
and post-rehabilitation. Lisa passionately believes that the structure of the
body and its overall performance is dependent on genetic make-up and its
response to our internal and external environment (this includes exposure to
diet, stress, medications, pollutants, toxins and exercise). Therefore by
modifying diet, environment and providing 'sensitive' exercise programming a
person may be helped to reduce their risk of disease expression, optimise
performance and increase health and vitality. Lisa works closely with
consultants, surgeons, physiotherapists and complimentary therapists, and takes
an evidence based medicine approach to continually improving her own
professional practice so that she can help her clients make intelligent
decisions relating to their health and fitness goals. Outside of her practice,
Lisa is a mum with three grown up daughters and enjoys a number of activities
including marathon running and cooking. Lisa enjoys supporting those in recovery
from drug and alcohol addiction at Yeldall Manor, Towards Recovery and local
community support groups. Lisa is committed to the pursuit of knowledge and
continual improvement. She seeks to invest 10% of her time into research and
further specialist training, recognising that it is the intelligent application
of knowledge as a functionally trained medicine practitioner that is one of her
key differentiators. A summary of Lisa’s qualifications is listed below.
