Working with Tara has been a fantastic experience. I joined TPS because I had severe PMS and anxiety attacks around ovulation and my period. I also suffered from really loose stools and was extremely fatigued. All of my symptoms have improved significantly, my anxiety is gone, my digestion is great and I have more energy than I have had in a long time. Tara has put all the puzzle pieces together and helped me so much through this journey. It was not always easy, but if you stick with the course with her help you will see results! This is something I have not accomplished with any of my naturopathic doctors before. Thank you for all your guidance Tara, it has been a great journey.

Tara is fantastic at getting to the bottom of your issues. She provides a customized in depth protocol based on your test results and these tests are not the standard test your GP would give you. In fact, no naturopath has ever offered me these tests either. TPS is very involved and takes time and commitment but I have found it helpful in resolving my symptoms and have learnt a lot from this experience. Tara is really knowledgeable and approachable – love working with her. I saw improved libido, improved energy and motivation, improved gas, decreased bloating, menstrual cycle stability, and crazy hair growth – a side effect I was not expecting! Thank you!”

I joined TPS after following Tara on social media for a few months. Tara is a wealth of knowledge, and TPS got me on track with improved eating and realising the importance of looking after myself and de-stressing my life. I started taking more time to do things I enjoyed, realising how important that is for my health. I also realised that for someone with my health concerns, high intensity exercise is not beneficial! While I mostly knew what foods to steer away from, it helped to have someone I was accountable to who was checking in on me regularly. TPS community of ladies all give each other food ideas, and we supported each other through the process. Tara interpreted the test results and put me on a range of supplements to improve my health and hormone balance. I no longer feel like I need a nap everyday, I'm thinking clearer and I've also lost some weight! After TPS program, I feel I now have the knowledge to continue this journey myself, and I'll continue to work with Tara in the future. Tara gave me answers to my questions, and solutions to improving my symptoms. Thank you for your support and expertise Tara!

Tara's program is designed to get to the root cause and treat the whole you, not just the parts that don't feel quite right. The testing included in Tara's program is critical! For years I have chased symptoms and tried things based on those symptoms. While some of it helped, I still was left trying to figure out what was happening inside my body. Now I know! In Tara's program I discovered what exactly was happening and Tara developed a protocol to finally address the reason I was experiencing the symptoms.Take back your power ladies! Do the tests and the work. It is worth every penny to finally know what is going on and how to treat it. After a few months in the program, I can honestly say I have more energy than I have had in a long time. I see signs that my body is healing.I am finally standing in my power and moving forward. Thank you Tara for sharing your light and knowledge with women. Thank you for helping me to take back my power and my health!

After making some changes over a month, my migraines come much less frequently, and when they do they are less severe.

My PMS symptoms are less now, and my anxiety is much better. I am sleeping better and my fatigue is improved. This may not seem like much, but to me this is everything- I feel like I am slowly getting my life back.

I cannot wait to see how I feel after I continue these things for more than just a month, and start the rest of my supplements. I am also excited to retest and see how I have fixed things, and see what else needs to be worked on. I love not only having a community of women experiencing similar things that I can speak to, but Tara on my side, caring and cheering me on along the way. My only regret is not joining this program sooner. I should add that I am a Nurse Practitioner trained in western medicine practices only, and I am now “sold” on functional medicine.

I believe I won the lottery when I found Tara Thorne. I’d been having loose stools and gut issues for over a year. My gut was a mess. I had already worked with 2 practitioners but neither provided a protocol that moved the needle. I am a certified Health Practitioner.myself, so I know a lot of Practitioner’s, but could not find a good fit. I found Tara through a group I was in, and when I found out she had trained with Dr Jason Hawrlek, the Probiotic Advisor, that got my attention. Tara knows her probiotics and strains matter! I reached out to her and shared a stool test. She responded with a short Loom, going over what she saw in it. I signed up and am so grateful for all her knowledge and expertise. She quickly started me on a protocol. We did an HTMA, and from the findings she created a formula to get my minerals back into balance. She also created a tincture to address the dysbiosis in my gut. She wanted me to wait for 4 months prior to retesting, but I retested after 3 months and was thrilled with the progress. It wasn’t perfect yet, but so many things had improved. I was feeling so much better and am still getting better by the day. Tara not only helped turn my gut issues around but my cholesterol markers are so much better. I am so grateful for finding Tara. I highly recommend working with Tara Thorne.

I started seeing Tara when I was in a pretty deep depression. It was the main reason for seeking out her help – Yes, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, but controlling blood sugar and losing a few pounds were prioritized behind stabilizing my moods. The effects of changing my diet were immediate and astounding. I dealt with a particularly stressful time at work with grace that amazed me. I’m not going to lie – it was tough. I really truly love a lot of things that I shouldn’t eat! But I saw how much better I truly felt when I avoided sugar, gluten and dairy. My energy increased. My depression and anxiety decreased. My tolerance for stress grew, as she gave me tools to deal with it. Tara is a rare mix of just enough kindness and just enough toughness. She really understood when I faltered but she had high expectations that motivated me to follow the plan! I am writing this about two months after finishing and I can tell you that the knowledge and tools she gave me will be mine for life. I described it to a friend recently like this: the pendulum was far far to the extreme right, then with her help it swung way over to the far left. As soon as I was not accountable to her directly, I let it slide back toward the other side, and man, did I feel it!! So now, the pendulum has settled halfway left of centre and I am so happy with that. I accept that I can’t eat or live perfectly all the time but I am committed to maintaining the majority of the lifestyle changes she has taught me. The lasting effect is that my inner voice now has an awesome Australian accent!

“I started feeling like things weren’t right back in late 2015. I had recently turned 35. Out of nowhere I began to hold onto extra weight and my acne went bananas. I was trying to balance fatigue as well. In July 2019 I began working with Tara. I’ll never forget the relief when I received Tara's notes explaining everything. All my results. All the mystery behind why I felt the way I did. Finally! Some Answers!!!!! Tara put together a personalized protocol to begin my healing ASAP. It’s now been 2 (almost 3) months that I’ve been following my protocol. I’m happy to report that I’ve lost 10lbs within the 1st month and a half. My energy levels are 100% better than they were. I am now eating better, and sleeping better. My last menstrual cycle was a dream! I’m pretty amazed! Back in 2015 when my acne got really bad, I also began getting intense eczema on both hands. I’m thrilled to say that after 4 years of battling eczema, my hands are now clear! This happened on my second month after starting my protocol. I’m just so thankful. I’m putting this together in hopes that people can see what a blessing it was to work with Tara Thorne. How her knowledge of nutrition and how the body works, was crucial in my turn around.. If your in the fence or feel like nothing will work, please consult with her. I feel blessed to have found her”.

I approached Tara after years of aches and pains (fibromyalgia), chronic headaches, gut issues, iron deficiency, PMT and low energy. I needed to take pain relief regularly to get through my day. Tara knew exactly what I needed to repair my fatigued body and now I’m pain-free. I haven’t had to take pain relief for so long now and I don’t wake up feeling like I need to be oiled! I’ve learned how powerful good, nutritious food can be for my mind and my body

I’ve been working with Tara for about 6 months via the Hive and have also done some precision testing per her recommendations (Dutch Test and GI Map testing). I’m 38 years old, live a busy life as a full time financial professional and was starting to experience the exact same symptoms and issues my mother had when she was my age…this was a major turning point for me when I decided I needed to get to the root of my issues, not just mask them. Tara and I have spent the last few months using a combination of food choices and supplementation to address the primary gut infection (h.pylori) and help my body detox from all the estrogen. Follow up testing shows that h.pylori is gone and that my markers for gut inflammation and difficulty detoxing estrogen have come WAY down. I’m also experiencing regular, normal periods, no breast pain and no headaches!! We recently re-ran the GI map testing again and will tackle some secondary disbiosis issues that very commonly lurk under the primary issues. I am also going to start implementing Tara’s recommendations for better/more sleep and stress management to allow my body to shed the excess weight. The support in the Hive is awesome, and it’s a great place to get real, point-in-time answers from Tara instead of just crossing my fingers and googling important health questions. I am so pleased with Tara’s thorough and precise process and her kind and thoughtful approach. I know I’m on the right track and implementing foods, supplements and lifestyle choices that specifically are geared for me and my issues. I only wish that I had found Tara sooner!

My health issues were getting the better of me so I started working with Tara as a one on one client and also as a member of the Hive. In that time I have made significant improvements in not only my health but my understanding of my body and how life and food affect it. Making health a top priority seemed like an overwhelming task that would require considerable willpower. Going it alone was something I had already been doing, but it was harder than it needed to be, took significantly longer to reach my goals, and was a lonely journey. With Tara as my coach and biggest cheerleader, I found navigating the muddy waters that much easier. Tara devise a treatment plan that was way more thorough than I would have ever designed for myself. If I faltered or had questions she was always there to answer them and the Hive certainly helps. If you are dedicated to making positive steps towards reclaiming your best self, I would highly recommend Tara’s services and the Hive.

I had always avoided stool testing (yuck!) until my DUTCH test showed issues with my cortisol levels and metabolism pointing Tara to suggest the GI Map to catch gut infections that may be causing the cortisol issues. The GI Map stool test was really not as bad as I had expected…. And, after dealing with the gut infections, my cortisol evened out! Doing the DUTCH test also showed me what my DIM supplement was doing for my body. I highly recommend the DUTCH and GIMap testing!

“I’ve always had challenges maintaining a healthy weight. I’m constantly fluctuating because I’ll do a drastic eating and exercise program that can’t be maintained long-term. Tara’s program was perfect for me. I learned so much about how to eat properly. I never felt like I was depriving myself of anything. It was the opposite actually! When I eat now I feel like I’m nourishing my body and mind. No more bloat, discomfort…my clothes fit great. I even dropped to a size I haven’t been since I was a teenager. Tara is fabulous! If you want to live a happier and healthier life, she’s your girl.”

“I just completed the Six Week Slim Down and it was one of the best healthy living decisions I have ever made! Not only did I lose 10 lbs in six weeks (and still losing), but my energy and mood have improved, and my chronic, year-round allergy symptoms have all but disappeared! Tara consistently went above and beyond to answer questions and troubleshoot challenges while on the program – it’s so clear that she is passionate about her work and is an expert in her field! With a few tweaks, I am now committed to eating the way Tara taught me for life!”

“3 Years after having my second child I felt exhausted, out of energy, experiencing terrible nausea each month around ovulation and the final straw: acne. My doctor and derm's only suggestion was to go on the birth control pill – which I was not going to do. I wanted to treat the cause, not the symptoms. Working with Tara was eye opening and motivating. We completed a GI map and DUTCH hormone test which showed some underlying gut and hormone issues. After addressing these issues with Tara I’m so much higher in energy, I'm sleeping better, I've lost 8 lbs and my skin is starting to calm. When working on something as priceless as your health you want a practitioner that is as passionate as you are – and Tara is! You can tell she is doing this because she loves it and she thrives on continually educating herself so she can bring the best result to her clients.” 

Tara is amazing! She is incredibly smart and perceptive, and does the deep digging to get to the root of what is causing your symptoms. She is not afraid of doing more research and educating herself if there is something she doesn't know or is unsure of either. In the few months she worked with me I felt more supported and listened to than I had from anyone else, she helped me feel a hundred times better, and even helped me have a more positive outlook on life as well by helping me with mindfulness. She cares about your body and your mind, and I know she truly cares about getting you wholy well. She truly has a gift! 

I have worked with many functional medicine practitioners over the years trying to get to the root cause of my hormonal imbalance and autoimmune issues. Tara's knowledge of hormones and nutrition combined, helped me to lower my thyroid antibodies and lose about 7 lbs along the way. That may not sound like much, but this weight would not budge at all. If you're stuck and frustrated I highly recommend working with Tara. I have continued to follow her guidelines for the last year and feel great. No more midday crash, very close to my ideal weight and I'm still living life. I wish she could be my personal doctor.
