Feeling a little off lately? Tired of trying to “eat right” and still not feeling your best? You’re not alone—and I’m here to help. I’m Zané (pronounced Zaa-nee), a registered nutritionist, certified Emotional Release Technique (ERT) practitioner, and Metabolic Balance® coach. I specialise in helping women—especially those over 35—navigate the confusion of nutrition, emotional overwhelm, and hormonal changes so they can reclaim their energy, confidence, and vitality. My mission is to guide you through the noise and into a simple, personalised approach to wellness that works for you—not against you. In my practice, I go far beyond meal plans and calorie counting. I take the time to get to know you—your medical history, blood results, lifestyle, relationship with food, emotional triggers, and your unique goals and preferences. I firmly believe that there is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to health. That’s why every recommendation I make is tailored specifically to your needs and backed by the latest scientific evidence. Many of my clients come to me feeling frustrated—doing “all the right things” and still struggling with stubborn weight, mood swings, low energy, or burnout. Often, these symptoms are not just about food or willpower. They’re linked to inflammation, stress, unresolved emotional patterns, and hormone imbalances. That’s where the power of Metabolic Balance® and Emotional Release Technique comes in. Using your individual blood results, we can uncover which foods support your body’s healing, calm inflammation, and restore balance. And through ERT, we gently release emotional blockages that may be holding you back—because true transformation happens on every level. If you’re ready to stop second-guessing what’s “right” for your body and start feeling clear, strong, and connected again—I’d love to support you. You don’t have to do this alone. Book a session with me today, and let’s begin your personalised journey Back to Balance.
