ABOUT US.
Pebble Nutrition (previously Routes to Nutrition) is a thriving Nutritionist practice.
Over the last ten years we have worked with hundreds of clients both in the UK and internationally.
In 2026 Pebble Nutrition was recognised by the GHP Holistic Health Awards, winning Best Specialist Family Nutrition Brand – UK and the GHP Excellence Award in Nutritional Support for Neurodivergent Families.
We specialise in providing carefully formulated supplements and personalised nutritional support for families navigating Autism, PANS, PANDAS and other neurodivergent health needs.
We also support adults with issues such as gut health, menopause and chronic inflammation to help improve overall wellbeing.
Our approach focuses on running non-invasive laboratory testing, creating bespoke nutrition programs, and using high-quality, yet gentle supplements to build the foundations of health. We prefer to ‘test, don’t guess’.
We focus on a ‘pure and simple’ and ‘back to basics’ approach to create a strong foundation of health.

KATHRYN PICKING
Kathryn completed a degree focusing on Nutrition and Food Science at the University of Surrey. She also has a Diploma in Nutrition with Distinction.
She struggled with many aspects of her own health twenty years ago, including brain fog, extreme gut issues, and fatigue.
Kathryn’s son has an autism diagnosis and was born with many of the same issues she was experiencing. She was determined to help him and sought the advice of many top professionals, but saw no improvement. Only once she started gently using minerals did they both start improving.
They are both feeling great now, and according to her son’s school, he is “flying.”

Kathryn and her team are amazing and incredibly knowledgeable nutritionists with great empathy for your situation. Kathryn truly listens and can clearly explain why certain behaviours and health issues are happening with your child, which brings so much clarity and relief. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
She speaks not only from deep professional experience but also as a caring mum at heart, which makes you feel truly understood and reassured that you’re not alone on your journey to help your child heal.
I would also highly recommend her book and supplements — her personal touch and guidance truly come from the heart.

Certified HTMA Practitioner (accredited by BANT, NNA, and ANP)
CPD:

Charlotte’s journey into nutrition is deeply personal—driven by her eldest son’s health challenges and her own experience with menopause. Her son is autistic, has epilepsy, and has faced many medical hurdles, giving her deep empathy for parents navigating the joys and complexities of raising a neurodivergent child.
At the same time, her menopause journey showed her how frustrating it can be to feel unheard and offered little beyond medication.
Having faced these challenges herself, Charlotte offers support with understanding and compassion. Her teaching background helps her communicate complex ideas in a clear way. She brings warmth and experience to her work, always sensitive to each family’s unique needs.
Charlotte is committed to professional development and has undertaken further CPD training, including Diplomas in Menopause Wellness Coaching and Autism Awareness.

I cannot recommend Charlotte at Pebble Nutrition highly enough.
Her service is exceptional, and she is consistently available whenever I have a question or need guidance.
Dealing with hormonal imbalances and the unique nutritional needs of a neurodivergent child can be overwhelming, but she makes it feel manageable.
She has been really helpful and her approach is compassionate, knowledgeable, and highly effective.
I feel so supported on this journey!
After 3 months of following the nutritional plan I can truly see a difference.
HAYLEY CAPSTICK

Hayley’s journey into understanding the importance of nutrition began when she first turned to Kathryn for help with her daughter’s tics. After seeing the impact that nutritional supplements had on her daughter and the fabulous work that Kathryn did, Hayley wanted to be involved and so joined Pebble Nutrition in an operational support role.
But her passion for helping others soon led her to pursue a Diploma in Nutrition and return as a fully qualified Nutritionist.
Hayley has two neurodiverse children and endless empathy and understanding for the challenges that these children and their parents can face.
She uses our “testing not guessing” approach with her clients, providing them with a clear plan forward, while making sure they feel fully supported and heard.
Hayley approaches all consultations with curiosity, compassion, and care, and finds great joy in building strong, trusting connections with her clients. Hayley is a valued member of the Pebble team.

WHERE WE STARTED.
WHY WE CREATED PEBBLE NUTRITION
In many cases, the supplements that we wanted to use for clients just weren’t available, so we set out to develop our own products.
Many of our clients are sensitive or have many layers of complicated symptoms.
They often don’t tolerate complicated multivitamins or products with added unnecessary ingredients.
We created products that are as simple and pure as possible. This is what Pebble is about, small simple steps that bring powerful changes.
INDEPENDENT AND FAMILY-OWNED
Pebble is an independent family-owned company in East Anglia, founded by Kathryn and supported by her husband (and son!). As we’re a small family company we put our nutrients, customers and environment first.
We only launch products we believe in, we won’t be developing large ranges of supplements, just because they’re popular.
We use high quality independent manufacturers and all packaging is environmentally friendly.
We prioritise our customers and will always listen to you.

KIND WORDS.
CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
“My son was diagnosed with PANS and Kathryn has been helping us every navigate the seemingly complicated world of nutrition by providing advice and support in a language we can understand. She is always quick to respond to questions and nothing is too much bother. Kathryn is extremely professional and knowledgeable and our son is coming on leaps and bounds. We are very grateful to have found her.”
Emily
“Your programme is working very very well, and I am full of gratitude – I look forward to coming to see you and continuing the work a little later in the year”.
Louise
“I used Kathryn to help with a broken arm, the arm was not healing and the Consultants were puzzled and said the next stage would be an operation. However I wanted to try fix it naturally if I could, without an operation. I was recommended to seek Kathryn’s help by a close friend and completed a mineral test, the results showed a lot of mineral deficiencies including those needed for bone health. After following her plan for 4 months, miraculously the bone was healed at the next scan. The Dr’s were amazed and are now interested in talking to Kathryn!”
Helen
“After spending a huge of money on various different practitioners, including some leading practitioners in London, I decided to come and see you. So glad I did, my digestive issues are SO much better and my depression that I never thought I could get rid of has considerably improved. The horrible brain fog has also gone! Just wish I had found her sooner! I have recommended to her to friends and family”.
Sally
“I just wanted to email to say thank you! My daughter is flourishing :)”
Claire
“You not only provide excellent nutritional advise, you support me emotionally through this very cruel PANS condition that my son has. As you say it’s like fitting a big jigsaw piece together. We are certainly fitting these missing pieces in for my son and he is getting better and better”.
Tanya
“I cannot recommend Kathryn highly enough. I saw Kathryn for my youngest daughter, who suffering with many digestive problems, these have all now improved completely and anxiety is fading. Kathryn is kind and knowledgeable and has a great deal of experience.”
Harriet
“You’re our family nutritionist, and nothing we ask is ever too much, you’re wonderful! I’m feeling so well and have so much more energy.”
Lisa
“Thank you so much for all your support these past 1 yr and a half. I really don’t know where we would be now if it wasn’t for you!! You create your plans so carefully, which I really appreciate. In my worst days you were there not only for nutritional support but emotional support for a struggling parent! I highly recommend Kathryn. My children are both thriving and it is down to you”!
Rachel
“Kathryn is so approachable, calm yet professional. Her analysis and plans are carefully explained and easy to understand. Nothing is too much trouble and she is so responsive over email and emotional support for me as a parent. I really wouldn’t be sane right now if I hadn’t met Kathryn”.
Vanessa
“I just wanted to let you know how well Arlo is doing! It’s amazing how much of difference this has made already!! He’s so much calmer, is sleeping through the night and has had no diarrhoea at all… incredible! I’m so happy, thank you”.
Tavia
“We started using Kathryn after our son had been extremely sick with strep and post viral tics, our neurologist kept prescribing antibiotics, we soon realised we couldn’t use them long term I felt we weren’t looking at the root cause and he kept getting sick. Kathryn was very reassuring and understanding of what we were going through. Kathryn advised us to have my son’s hair analysed, we discovered our son was depleted in some important minerals and so he was very imbalanced, if certain minerals aren’t in balance then the body and immune system won’t work properly. This made so much sense to us and once we started the supplement plan that Kathryn our son improved and his tics diminished! We are currently tic free and his immune system and health has never been better. We have been so impressed by the results that we have asked Kathryn to do the same for both of us! Kathryn is extremely easy to talk to professional and has always been there to answer any of my questions when I needed her”.
Milena
Our son was suffering with so much anxiety, tantrums, picky eating the list was endless. He had such a pale complexion, he struggled to focus on anything really and was finding school so hard, not only in the classroom, but with making friends. He was very emotional and would spend a lot of time in tears.
We saw our GP on so many occasions, she tried to help, but we were only ever given increasing medications which didn’t help and actually made him worse. We undertook some tests, which Kathryn arranged and fully analysed. She recommended various supplements. The difference in him is amazing and he is now really thriving. Even teachers have been seeing a difference too, he has come on in so many ways, with reading, writing and can’t wait to get to school. He has also made friends. We are so grateful to have met Kathryn.
Laura
Our son is now thriving, through your careful and gentle plans and continued support, you have single-handedly improved his health.
Liz
Just an example of how we have helped Emily over this last year. There is a school trip for 20 students to go to Amsterdam on a visual arts trip in Sep. She has asked if she can go even though none of her friends will be going. This is huge! Not only does she want to go, she is SO excited about it. A year ago I would never have expected anything like this. Thank you!
Kirsty
I’ve been working with Kathryn for 2 years now, her knowledge is vast, way more than any other practitioner I have worked with. She is so dedicated to her work, yet has a lovely approach, she genuinely wants to help. Each test we do with her and find out more information, I get better and better! I really haven’t felt as good as this! So, a big big thank you!
Elouise
I contacted Kathryn regarding my eldest son, he has PANS, he had got so bad he was refusing to go to school. We had tried everything and seen so many practitioners and Dr’s. Since following her nutritional plan now for a year my son’s anxiety has massively reduced. His general health has massively improved, he is finally growing and is now able to go back to school, which is a massive breakthrough for us. I am now in the process of testing my elder son with Kathryn! Thank you so much! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Her prices are also very reasonable.
