1-on-1 Diabetes Education Consultations

We know that it can be overwhelming when you first hear that you have diabetes. There is a lot of information out there, and it’s hard to know what’s helpful and what your body needs.

During our consultations, we teach you how to manage your diabetes in the best way possible for your own body. We give you the knowledge and skills needed so you can take care of yourself and continue to lead a healthy life.

We know that everyone’s approach to managing Type 1 Diabetes is different because we all have different bodies and lifestyles. Type 1 Diabetes is an autoimmune condition where the immune system destroys the pancreas insulin cells.

We take a holistic and individualised approach when it comes to managing your condition by considering your dietary, lifestyle and psychosocial wellbeing. During our consultations, we teach you how to use insulin and new technologies, monitor your blood glucose levels, and maintain a healthy lifestyle. We want you to feel confident managing your diabetes, so you continue doing everything you want to do.

We know that everyone’s approach to managing Type 2 Diabetes is also different because we all have different bodies and lifestyles. Type 2 Diabetes is when your body does not effectively produce or use insulin and you develop insulin resistance.

We help you make the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes, so you can better manage your diabetes. During our consultations, we focus on individualised strategies and medication therapies that help you achieve and maintain good glycaemic levels, so you continue to feel good both inside and outside.

We know that it can be confusing if you develop Gestational Diabetes during your pregnancy. Gestational Diabetes is when your body’s increased hormones increase your insulin resistance. This means that the placenta makes it difficult for your body’s insulin to work as effectively. Once your baby is delivered, your body’s blood glucose levels usually return to normal.

During your pregnancy, we can help manage your Gestational Diabetes. We teach you how to make the necessary dietary and lifestyle changes, monitor your blood glucose levels, and use insulin or medication if needed, so that you and your baby continue to feel happy and healthy.
