Before, during & after
After booking you'll receive a health history form and a 3-day food diary to complete 48h before. The more detail, the more we can address in your session.
We go through your full gut health history — symptoms, diet, lifestyle, stress, and emotional wellbeing. You leave with a clear picture of the root cause and a personalised plan.
A written nutrition and lifestyle protocol tailored to your specific gut condition, plus direct email access between sessions.
Most clients notice real changes within 2–6 weeks. Full resolution of chronic gut conditions like IBS or SIBO typically takes 3–12 months depending on the root cause.

Personalised protocol
A specific plan for your condition — whether IBS, SIBO, bloating, constipation, or reflux — built around your history, sensitivities, and lifestyle.
Ongoing support
Progress tracking, plan adjustments, and email access between sessions throughout your healing journey.
Frequently asked questions
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is often driven by bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), intestinal permeability (leaky gut), food sensitivities, low stomach acid, gut motility issues, or a disrupted gut-brain axis. A naturopath investigates which of these is the underlying driver in your specific case, rather than managing symptoms with a generic protocol.
Most clients notice meaningful improvements within 2–6 weeks of starting a naturopathic protocol. Full resolution of chronic gut conditions typically takes 3–12 months, depending on the root cause and how long the condition has been present.
Not always. Supplements are recommended only when genuinely needed and are fully tailored to your specific condition — never generic. Diet and lifestyle changes are always the foundation of treatment.
Yes. Chronic constipation is often caused by poor gut motility, low stomach acid, thyroid imbalance, dysbiosis, or inadequate hydration. A naturopath addresses the underlying cause rather than relying on laxatives, using dietary changes, herbal support, and lifestyle adjustments.
Yes. Joana Amram at Ammar Health is a registered naturopath specialising in gut health in Lisbon, available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French. Both in-person and online consultations are available worldwide.
Yes. Acid reflux is frequently caused by low stomach acid rather than excess acid — which means acid-suppressing medication can worsen the root cause over time. A naturopath assesses your specific situation and uses dietary changes, herbal medicine, and lifestyle support to address reflux at the source.
