Hi, I’m Nikki Hawkes, a medical herbalist and functional medicine health consultant with over twenty years of experience.
I specialise in supporting women in midlife who feel overwhelmed by gut health challenges that affect daily life—the obvious gut problems such as relentless bloating, painful spasms, reflux or food intolerances. Or, more usually, gut problems that are part of a more complex health picture, with other symptoms that seem to compound over time. Many women I work with are at their breaking point, struggling with health issues that overshadow life’s pleasures, making it hard to focus at work, enjoy time with family, or even eat without fear.
If this resonates with you, I want you to know that in our work together, you’ll feel truly heard and understood. I will take the time to listen to your full health history and together we will create an achievable, holistic, step-by-step plan just for you. A plan that will address not just the symptoms but the underlying root causes, that uses natural remedies, nutrition and lifestyle changes, to provide the deep relief that you deserve.
This is more than just feeling a little better—it’s about reclaiming your life. When gut health is restored, everything improves: energy levels rise, sleep deepens, your mood balances, and you can enjoy food without anxiety. It’s the difference between simply getting through the day and truly thriving.
If you’re struggling with persistent health issues that feel like they’re controlling your life, you’re not alone. I bring a wealth of experience to create a safe, supportive space where you can find lasting relief. And when you’re ready to take that step, I’ll be here to guide you, with respect for your unique journey.

Consultations
Start with a quick ‘Hello Call’ to chat about how I can help you. If it sounds like what you’re looking for, you’ll fill out an intake form, and we’ll delve deeper in our first consultation. We’ll talk about your medical history, what’s bothering you now, and dig into what could be causing your health issues. Together, we’ll create a plan that may include dietary changes, lifestyle, supplements or herbal remedies to get you feeling your best. Follow-up consultations can be as frequent or spaced out as you need to keep you on track.
