Meet Vicky Mcgavin

Clinical Nutritionist • Remedial Therapist • Chef • Swim Coach

Vicky is passionate about food, health, and movement, helping people feel empowered through life’s transitions, especially midlife and menopause. With a practical, evidence-based approach, she simplifies complex health topics into real strategies that support energy, mood, metabolism, and overall wellbeing.

Together, we will discuss:

• What are perimenopause and menopause?
• How do they affect both women and men (yes, men too!)?
• Recognizing symptoms and understanding hormonal changes—in simple, accessible language.
• Natural approaches vs. hormone replacement therapy (HRT): Is one better than the other—or is a combination ideal?
• Why does HRT have a “bad reputation,” and what’s the truth behind it?
• Compounded vs. pharmaceutical HRT—what’s the difference, and what should you consider?
• Managing chronic conditions such as insulin resistance, diabetes, cardiovascular issues, or autoimmunity during this phase—especially through natural methods.

Whether you’re navigating symptoms, training hard at the gym, or just trying to feel like yourself again, Vicky enjoys breaking down complex topics into simple, relatable advice that actually makes a difference.
