About Jo Rowkins

I’m Jo Rowkins, a nutritional therapist supporting women who feel stressed, exhausted or out of balance, as well as women navigating hormonal changes, including PMS and perimenopause.

I help you understand what your body needs and make simple, realistic changes that support your energy, sleep, digestion and overall wellbeing. My approach is gentle and practical, focused on small changes that make a real difference when practised consistently.

I qualified as a Nutritional Therapist in 2008 with the College of Naturopathic Medicine. I’m also a Hatha yoga and meditation teacher, and I bring a lifelong interest in mindfulness and self-development into my work.

My story

From Thailand to Berlin to Brighton

My interest in wellbeing began in 2003, when I trained as a Hatha yoga and meditation teacher in an Indian ashram. I’ve been a daily meditator ever since.

I spent three years in Thailand as an Executive Health Consultant at The Spa Resorts in Koh Samui, supporting people from around the world through wellness and fasting programmes. I later moved to Berlin, where I ran workshops until the birth of my daughter in 2012.

I now live in Brighton, where I love being by the sea, swimming, cooking and sharing good food with family and friends. I’m passionate about aromatherapy, music and singing — and I still enjoy a good glass of red wine. To me, a healthy life is about enjoyment and balance, not perfection.

My approach

I take a whole-person approach to nutrition. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we look at the wider picture: your food, sleep, stress levels, digestion, hormonal health, lifestyle and goals.

No two people are the same, so no two plans are the same. Together, we’ll create simple, realistic changes that fit into your life and help you feel more energised and at home in your body.

I’m particularly interested in the connection between stress and health. Many women spend years in fight-or-flight mode, pushing through tiredness and overwhelm because life doesn’t slow down. But when the nervous system is constantly switched on, sleep, digestion, energy, mood and hormonal balance can all be affected.

A key part of my work is helping you move towards rest, digest and repair mode where your body can settle, digest properly, sleep more deeply and begin to restore balance.

Food, self-care and feeling good

I believe in a relaxed, compassionate approach to food. Rather than strict rules or all-or-nothing dieting, we focus on nourishing meals and habits that help you feel good over time.

We’ll also look at the wider factors that influence wellbeing: stress, sleep, emotional wellbeing, movement and the practical realities of everyday life. Self-care is not an indulgence, it’s an essential part of looking after your health.

My aim is to help you feel more energised, resilient and supported, without adding pressure or perfectionism to your life.

How I work

I offer personalised nutritional therapy programmes, as well as focused support for women who want clarity around a specific concern.

Whether you’re navigating hormonal changes, feeling burnt out, struggling with sleep or simply know you need more support, we’ll create a plan that feels realistic for you.

I work mainly with clients online, as well as in person in Brighton and London by arrangement.
