About your practitioner
Clinician, educator and researcher in functional medicine and functional neurology, specialising in gut, hormonal and brain-based imbalances.
Why this clinic exists
Alan's starting point is that most digestive complaints are managed rather than investigated. His practice is built around understanding the whole case before recommending anything.
Alongside the Gut Wellness Clinic, Alan practises osteopathy in Llandudno and Menai Bridge. He works alongside your GP and any specialists involved in your care.
Why root cause matters
Mainstream medicine asks what the condition is and which treatment controls it. Functional medicine asks why the body has stopped working properly and what will restore it. Most people with ongoing gut symptoms have only ever been asked the first question.

How it works in practice
Bloating, for example, may come from low stomach acid, which in turn is linked to chronic stress, poor sleep and blood sugar swings. Treat only the bloating and it comes back.
