Meet your functional medicine health coach

Christine Phillips.

Functional medicine & integrative nutrition health coach · accredited practitioner · wellness chef · DSTV Resident Wellness Chef (2018–2022).

Bryanston-based, working with women in their forties and fifties whose bodies have stopped responding to what worked in their thirties. The work is real food, real coaching, and the time to actually be heard — never the same plan for two different women, and never the medical conversation she's already had a hundred times.

Christine works alongside gynaecologists, endocrinologists, oncologists and GPs across the northern suburbs. The functional medicine layer (food, sleep, nervous system, strength) is hers; the medical layer is theirs; the two are designed to amplify each other.

The lane Joburg doesn't have yet

For the woman on the injection who knows the injection isn't enough.

The injection is doing one thing. Your body needs the other six — protein, micronutrients, muscle, mood, sleep, and the off-ramp plan.

Protein architecture for muscle preservation
Micronutrient mapping & supplement support
Mood, sleep, nervous-system support
Structured tapering & post-injection plan
3-month 1:1 or small-group format

From the women

What changes when the work actually fits you.

"I came to Christine because my doctor's only answer for my hot flashes was the pill. Six months in, my sleep is back, my weight is moving, and I haven't had a flash in eleven weeks. She listens like nobody else has."

Sarah M.Sandton · perimenopause client

"I was on Ozempic nine months and lost twenty kilos but felt awful — no energy, no muscle, no joy. Christine put me on a protein-led protocol, weaned me off slowly, gave me back my body. I wish I'd found her on day one."

Anita R.Hyde Park · post-GLP-1

"The Hormone Reset pack changed how I eat permanently. I had no idea food could be both delicious and clean. Three years later I still book it every month — the Sunday it arrives is the highlight of my month."

Liesl B.Bryanston · Reset Pack since 2023
