Specialist Dietetic Consultation Areas

Alongside nutrition diagnostics, Joshua provides specialist dietetic consultation in the below areas:

Tube Feeding NG/PEG/PEJ/STOMA Optimisation

Joshua facilitates a private tube feeding specialty clinic, helping people with complex nutritional needs live their fullest lives. This unique clinic utilises nutrition diagnostic machinery to prescribe your exact nutritional needs, available through private pay, Medicare, NDIS, or TAC.

Joshua has experience in both blended tube feeding and formula optimisation, catering to all ages and presentations.

Ehlers Danlos Syndrome 

Joshua offers specialised support for individuals with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), a group of connective tissue disorders that can significantly impact daily life. He understands the unique nutritional challenges faced by those with EDS, such as gastrointestinal dysmotility, malabsorption, and increased nutrient requirements due to hypermobility and chronic pain. 

Using nutrition diagnostic scanning, Joshua accurately assesses metabolic function and tailors dietary plans to manage symptoms, improve energy levels, and enhance overall quality of life. His approach includes recommendations for specific nutrients, dietary modifications, and strategies to manage comorbid conditions often associated with EDS.

Gastrointestinal Issues and POTS

Joshua provides expert dietary management for gastrointestinal issues, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), gastroparesis, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and other GI disorders. He uses advanced nutrition diagnostic tools to understand the underlying metabolic and nutritional deficiencies contributing to these conditions. 

For individuals with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Joshua develops dietary strategies to manage symptoms such as dizziness, fatigue, and digestive problems. This includes optimising hydration, electrolyte balance, and nutrient intake to support autonomic function and overall well-being. His personalised plans aim to reduce symptom severity, enhance nutritional status, and improve daily functioning for those with gastrointestinal issues and POTS.
