Hi, I’m Claire Toomey! I’m a Nutritional Therapist and Personal Trainer with a passion for gut health and fat loss. I’m here to empower you with the tools to fuel your body and make lasting, positive health changes. With an MSc in Food, Nutrition, and Health from University College Dublin (where I graduated with first-class honours), along with a BSc in Biomedical Science, a Diploma in Sports and Exercise Nutrition, an AfN Certificate in Nutrition and Microbiome Training, and an NFQ Level 4 Diploma in Personal Training (APEC), I bring both expertise and real-world solutions to my clients.
While my studies laid the groundwork, I’ve learned the most through working with hundreds of clients facing unique gut health challenges – from digestive discomfort and immune issues to the gut-skin connection and food sensitivities. These experiences have allowed me to build a compassionate, tailored approach, designed to make gut health accessible and achievable for everyone.
Currently, I’m furthering my expertise with a Women’s Coaching Specialist certification from Girls Gone Strong and a certificate in Environmental Medicine from the College of Naturopathic Medicine.
I’m also a qualified pole fitness and dance instructor, and I love helping others discover their strength, confidence, and creativity through movement. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege to compete, perform, and teach in multiple dance and fitness settings, sharing the empowering art of pole fitness with people of all levels.
Beyond nutrition and fitness, I’m passionate about travel, meeting people from all walks of life, and bringing creative health solutions to every destination. Whether you’re on the go or at home, I believe in making health accessible, adaptable, and enjoyable!
