Claire Clerkin

Nutritional Therapist, Lecturer, Clinic Supervisor and Academic Tutor

I have been in clinical practice for over 10 years, and I use functional tests every week to help get the best results for my clients. They are a fantastic part of our toolkit that can add real value to your practice.

However, it took me years to build the confidence to recommend pricey tests and confidently deliver value for my client's precious spend.

I have designed this course to give newly qualified practitioners the fundamentals of choosing, using and delivering functional tests. It's something I wish I had when I was starting out.
