Sophie Holenstein, BSc (Hons), MRSPH

Metabolic Health & Lifestyle Practitioner

Women’s Health & Fertility Specialist Advanced Level 5 Nutritionist GP Referral & Level 4 Exercise Specialist

My Mission

I help people transform their metabolic, hormonal, and reproductive health through evidence‑based nutrition, lifestyle medicine, and specialist exercise programming.

My work is grounded in science, compassion, and a deep belief that every person deserves to understand their body and feel empowered to change it.

My Background

I’ve spent over a decade working in health, nutrition, and medical‑adjacent coaching. My journey began with a BSc (Hons), where I developed a strong foundation in applied nutritional science, physiology, and research.

From there, I expanded into advanced nutrition, women’s health, metabolic health, and specialist exercise. Building a unique skillset that bridges the gap between lifestyle coaching and medical support.

Today, I combine:

  • Advanced Level 5 nutrition training (AfN‑certified)

  • Women’s Health Practitioner Diploma (Distinction)

  • RSPH Membership (MRSPH)

  • Level 3 GP Exercise Referral Specialist

  • Level 4 Lower Back Pain Specialist

  • NHS‑aligned diabetes practitioner experience (NDPP + LCD)

  • Fertility nutrition training (in progress)

  • Level 5 Nutrition for Immunity (pending)
     

This blend allows me to support clients with complex metabolic, hormonal, and lifestyle needs safely, effectively, and holistically.

My Approach

My philosophy centres around three pillars:

1. Nutrition

Evidence‑based, practical, and personalised. No fads. No extremes. Just science that works.

2. Movement

As a GP Referral and Level 4 Exercise Specialist, I design safe, effective movement strategies for chronic conditions, pain, metabolic dysfunction, and women’s health needs.

3. Lifestyle Medicine

Sleep, stress, hormones, recovery, and behaviour change make up the foundations of long‑term health.

Together, these create a powerful, sustainable model for transformation.

Who I Work With

 

I support:

  • Women navigating hormonal changes

  • Couples preparing for conception

  • Individuals with insulin resistance or metabolic dysfunction

  • Clients recovering from injury, chronic pain, or long‑term inactivity

  • Anyone seeking a structured, evidence‑based approach to health

 

My work is personalised, collaborative, and rooted in long‑term wellbeing...not quick fixes!

Professional Experience

Over the last 10+ years, I’ve worked across:

  • NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme (NDPP)

  • NHS Low‑Calorie Diet Programme (LCD), first practitioner to launch in Gloucestershire

  • GP referral pathways

  • Corporate health and wellbeing

  • Private gyms

  • Women’s health and fertility support

  • Online metabolic and lifestyle coaching

 

This experience allows me to support clients with a level of depth and understanding that goes beyond traditional coaching.

My Promise to You

I don’t offer generic plans.

I don’t offer quick fixes.

I don’t offer one‑size‑fits‑all solutions.

I offer personalised, evidence‑based guidance designed to help you become the healthiest, strongest, most empowered version of yourself for life.
