Dave’s Mission
Dave Hompes became inspired about health & wellness after conquering his own health challenges between 2004 and 2007. He wasn’t able to rejuvenate his wellness until he met a functional medicine doctor who was willing to run the right tests and uncover the root cause.
Three digestive infections, adrenal fatigue and low testosterone, and potassium, magnesium and vitamin B6 deficiencies were detected, and once they had been dealt with, Dave was able to completely transform his vitality.
It was at point that he knew his life would be dedicated to helping others rebalance their bodies, renew their health and rediscover their zest for life using a combination of nutrition and lifestyle coaching, stress reduction and functional medicine.

Knowledge & Experience
After 20 years of health, wellness and performance-based training, hundreds of thousands of pages of research study, thousands of hours in a classroom and over 11,000 health, fitness and nutrition client sessions, you can rest assured that Dave’s knowledge, experience, and compassion are at the top of his field.
He has helped a wide range of clients, ranging from five-year old children with digestive and behavioural symptoms to eighty-five year olds with low energy, mood and mobility. Dave has worked with numerous professional athletes and celebrities, including the England rugby union squad, but his passion is in helping people from all walks of life transcend and transform conventional medical thinking to optimise wellness, look and feel great, and improve performance.
Dave has also invested over 4,000 hours of training and reading in human behaviour, wellness psychology and philosophy. These trainings were mainly spent in the U.S. and South Africa and involved learning how to place human wellness into a grander context of evolution, philosophy, mind and purpose.
These trainings included client and peer sessions: listening to people’s struggles and the hurdles they faced on their path to wellness, and hearing their remarkable recoveries from techniques and methods outside or combined with nutrition and functional medicine that involve balancing the mind.

An avid writer, Dave has written several books and online programmes, primarily on the topic of digestive health. Several more books are planned over the coming 24 to 36 months. Dave has also created hundreds of hours of clinical education content on topics ranging from nutrition, lifestyle and functional medicine to the mind-body connection, stress, business acumen and finances.
