Grab a cuppa and let’s reset, one root at a time. 🌱
Hi, I’m Louise 👋
A Nurse Practitioner turned Functional Medicine practitioner — and the founder of The Crunchy Aesthetic Nurse.
After years in conventional healthcare, I realised that so many people were being treated for symptoms rather than being understood as whole humans.
That’s where Functional Medicine came in for me.
It gave me the framework (and frankly, the hope) to start asking better questions:
Why are you feeling this way? What’s really going on underneath? And what would happen if we supported the body to heal from within?
Why “The Crunchy Root Reset”?
Because it’s about getting back to your roots — literally and figuratively.
Functional Medicine is all about uncovering root causes and creating space for the body to reset.
And “crunchy”? Well, that’s the imperfect, real-life part — the messy, beautiful side of healing that happens between school runs, coffee cups, and actual human emotions.
This space is for those of us who want to feel better, think clearer, digest easier, and glow naturally — without the overwhelm.
What you can expect here:
Honest, educational posts about gut health, energy, skin, and stress
A peek behind the scenes of my own wellness rituals and patient journeys (shared ethically and anonymously)
Functional medicine concepts explained simply — no jargon, no scare tactics
Small, actionable steps you can actually do in real life
Your weekly reset:
Each week I’ll share something to help you reconnect with your body — from gut-nourishing food ideas to lab test insights and lifestyle tweaks that really make a difference.
So brew a herbal tea (or coffee, no judgement here), take a deep breath, and let’s start your Crunchy Root Reset together. 🌿
