How Our Dietitian Can Help NDIS Participants
Proper nutrition is essential for maintaining energy levels, supporting overall health, and managing medical conditions. Many individuals with disabilities face unique dietary challenges, such as:
Difficulty chewing or swallowing (dysphagia)
Sensory sensitivities and food aversions
Managing chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or digestive disorders
At Your Nutrition, we provide tailored strategies to help participants overcome these challenges through:
Comprehensive assessments to understand health conditions, dietary preferences, and goals.
Personalised nutrition plans designed to be realistic, achievable, and enjoyable.
Education and skill-building for participants and caregivers to support informed food choices and meal planning.
Ongoing support and monitoring to track progress and adjust nutrition strategies as needed.
Collaboration with healthcare professionals to ensure a coordinated, multidisciplinary approach.

Telehealth Consultations: Available Australia-wide, our online appointments allow participants to receive expert dietary advice from anywhere.
In-Clinic Appointments: For those who prefer a clinical setting, we welcome participants to visit our clinic for one-on-one support.
