Rediscover balance. Restore wellbeing.
A personalised Ayurvedic approach that helps you understand the root causes of imbalance and supports lasting health through practical, sustainable changes.
Lorraine Traynor
Qualified Ayurvedic Practitioner (CMA Recognised)
There are moments when the body signals the need for a different level of attention.
In my early forties, I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. Alongside the diagnosis came a conventional treatment plan, but I also felt there was more to understand about what my body was trying to tell me. Something in me chose to pause.
I wanted to understand what was happening in my body and explore whether there was another way forward. That search led me to Ayurveda.
What began as a personal search for answers gradually became a vocation. The more I experienced the profound wisdom of Ayurveda, the more I wanted to understand it fully. This led me to formally study and qualify as an Ayurvedic Practitioner under Dr Sam Watts.
Through this work, my health began to improve gradually, but more importantly, I developed a far deeper understanding of my body and what it needed to thrive.
Today, I bring together that lived experience with professional training, offering a thoughtful, personalised approach that supports a deeper understanding of the body, restores balance and cultivates lasting wellbeing.

- Feel ready to reconnect with their health through timeless Ayurvedic wisdom and modern, practical guidance.

Measured. Intentional. Sustainable.
Your journey
Healing is rarely about quick fixes. It begins by listening to the body, restoring balance through thoughtful, personalised care, and creating the conditions to flourish over time.
Listen
Every journey begins with understanding.
Your initial consultation is a 75-minute, in-depth conversation designed to build a complete picture of your health and wellbeing.
Together, we explore your digestive health, energy and vitality, sleep quality, daily rhythms and lifestyle, alongside your current symptoms and the patterns that may be contributing to them. Rather than looking at symptoms in isolation, Ayurveda seeks to understand how the different aspects of your health connect.
Your personalised recommendations may include dietary guidance, daily routines and seasonal practices, lifestyle adjustments, and herbal support where appropriate.
Restore
With greater understanding comes the opportunity to create change.
As you begin to introduce your personalised recommendations, your body starts to respond. Through gentle guidance, practical adjustments and ongoing support, we work together to restore balance in a way that feels achievable and sustainable.
Lasting wellbeing is rarely the result of one dramatic change, but of many small, intentional steps taken consistently over time.
Flourish
As balance is restored, the focus shifts from simply feeling better to living well.
Follow-up consultations provide the opportunity to review your progress, celebrate what is working and thoughtfully refine your plan as your needs evolve.
Together, we continue to support your wellbeing, helping you build resilience, deepen your connection with your body and cultivate health that feels lasting, natural and uniquely your own.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need any experience of Ayurveda?+
Not at all. Many of my clients are completely new to Ayurveda. Everything is explained in a clear, practical way, and your recommendations are tailored to your individual needs, health concerns and lifestyle.
What happens during my initial consultation?+
Your initial consultation is a 75-minute conversation where we take the time to build a complete picture of your health and wellbeing. We explore your current concerns alongside your digestion, sleep, energy, lifestyle and daily routines to understand the patterns influencing your health. From this, I create a personalised plan designed specifically for you.
Will I receive a personalised plan?+
Yes. Following your consultation, you'll receive your personalised recommendations, which may include dietary guidance, lifestyle adjustments, daily routines, seasonal practices and, where appropriate, bespoke herbal recommendations.
Are consultations available online?+
Yes. Consultations are available both online and in person, allowing you to choose the option that best suits your lifestyle and location.
Do I have to make lots of changes straight away?+
Not at all. Ayurveda is not about perfection or making dramatic changes overnight. Together, we introduce recommendations gradually, creating sustainable habits that feel practical, achievable and supportive of your everyday life.
Will I need follow-up consultations?+
Everyone's journey is different. Many clients choose to book a follow-up consultation four to six weeks after their initial appointment so we can review progress, answer questions and refine recommendations as their health evolves.
Are herbal remedies included in the consultation fee?+
No. Herbal remedies are recommended only where appropriate and are charged separately from the consultation fee. Every herbal formulation is selected to support your unique constitution and current health needs.
Can Ayurveda work alongside conventional medical care?+
Yes. Ayurveda is intended to complement, not replace, conventional medical care. If you are under the care of your GP or a specialist, this will always be taken into account when developing your personalised plan.
What health concerns can Ayurveda support?+
Ayurveda takes a whole-person approach to health, focusing on understanding the underlying patterns that may be contributing to imbalance rather than treating symptoms in isolation. It may support people experiencing digestive concerns, stress and anxiety, poor sleep, fatigue, hormonal health, thyroid health, autoimmune conditions, skin concerns such as eczema and psoriasis, joint discomfort, inflammation, and overall wellbeing.
I'm not sure if Ayurveda is right for me. Can I get in touch before booking?+
Of course. If you have any questions before booking or would like to discuss whether Ayurveda is the right approach for you, I'd be delighted to hear from you.
