About Zoe
Zoe Rigby began working in holistic health as a clinical therapist 14 years ago after she felt began to feel a lack of purposes as the director a promotional company in the hospitality sector.
As a therapist Zoe has worked in a 1:1 clinical setting, managed a busy drop in clinic where she supervised practitioners for CPD work and assisted on large further education courses for practitioners learning to work with moms and babies.
When lockdown began Zoe was forced into isolation due to an autoimmune condition where her hunger for further knowledge and tools to support her journey in helping others led her to a 4 year journey of study in Clinical Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine.
Zoe is Mom to a 10 year old and step mom to a 23 year old.
"I have evolved so much as a person during these years of learning, researching and motherhood. Along with recognising my value and a greater sense of self worth I have attained greater personal health and I feel ever more driven to help others achieve their optimal health. "
"Life is here to be lived and appreciated to the full. If a poor physical or mental state is preventing that then we need to support our bodily systems to bring back equilibrium. Nourishing ourselves with food, movement and stress relieving practices are the simplest most powerful changes we can make to begin embracing our life to it's fullest potential."
With a motivating coaching style, a gentle listening and collaborative approach Zoe addresses each person from a whole body and mind perspective to get to the heart of whats troubling you.
Zoe is passionate in working with health issues that can lead to a poor state of mental health and helping client's with health worries they find hard to speak openly about, encouraging clients to take a leap of faith in a safely held space with her.
A personal goal is to make a big dent in changing the growing numbers of chronic disease through education with children and adults leading on from conditions such as prediabetes and to strengthen the dietary health of those with neurodiversity to improve their daily quality of life.
Some of the health issues she works with are: Mental Health / Neuro diversity, Autoimmune disorders, poor immune health, chronic stomach discomfort / IBS, dysbiosis, finding food intolerances, sexual dysfunction, menopause, burnout, stress, fatigue and anxiety.
"Most often our imbalances in our body when they become chronic lead us into suboptimal living because of the state of mind this pain, discomfort or frustration at our condition leads us to. It becomes our default mode and often we dont understand what we have put up with until we feel well again."
