Services
Hormone Replacement Therapy
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy addresses hormonal imbalances in both men and women. Our customized treatment plans use plant-derived hormones to alleviate symptoms of menopause, andropause, thyroid disorders, and adrenal fatigue. Patients receive comprehensive testing and ongoing monitoring to optimize hormone levels, improving energy, mood, sleep quality, and metabolic function while reducing long-term health risks associated with hormonal deficiencies.
Weight Loss Management
Physician-supervised weight management programs combine nutritional counseling, behavioral therapy, and metabolic optimization. We address underlying factors like insulin resistance and hormonal imbalances while implementing cognitive behavioral techniques. Our approach emphasizes sustainable lifestyle changes over temporary diets, incorporating genomic testing and personalized supplementation to support long-term weight maintenance and metabolic health improvement.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine identifies and treats root causes of chronic disease through systems biology approach. We assess genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors affecting wellness, using advanced diagnostics to create individualized treatment plans. Our services address conditions like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and autoimmune disorders through nutritional interventions, detoxification protocols, and targeted supplementation that restore physiological balance and optimize bodily functions.
Zerona Laser Therapy
Zerona cold laser treatment offers non-invasive fat reduction through low-level laser technology. This FDA-approved procedure targets adipose tissue, releasing stored fat without surgery or downtime. Combined with Vibra-Pro lymphatic stimulation, it enhances body contouring results by mobilizing released fat for natural elimination. Ideal for stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise, this treatment provides measurable inch loss in waist, hips, and thighs through a series of painless sessions.
Concierge Medicine
Our concierge medicine model provides enhanced patient access and comprehensive healthcare management. Members receive extended consultations, same-day appointments, and 24/7 physician availability. We emphasize preventive care through regular health screenings, personalized wellness plans, and continuous health monitoring. This membership-based approach allows for thorough, unhurried medical evaluations and coordinated care that prioritizes individual patient needs over volume-based practice constraints.

This organisation is a disgrace if I could give zero stars I would. Fobbed off for 8 years over outstanding defects. They continually blame failures on service delivery on their contractor Axis who are never held accountable. Issues range from minor defects to major issues such as leaking interiors and dangerously high building temperatures due to a faulty ventilation system that 8 years on remains unfixed. It is my intention to make sure Havering Council never award a contract to this group of charlatans ever again.

Absolute disgrace of a company. I've had problems since the day I moved in nearly 4 years ago which still have not been resolved. I currently have water leaking in my living room and causing damp which has been like this for the last 6months and yet nobody takes this seriously. Still waiting for this 'design defect ' to be resolved. For your own peace of mind and sanctity, avoid at all costs. Please feel free to contact me directly for more information or evidence of how you are treated once you purchase a home from nu living. 9 months on since this post and I'm still living in the same condition.

Perhaps the worst company currently on the property market. Impressive designs on paper un-liveable houses?! Charming until they get you hooked. Customer service below zero, architectural knowledge below zero. After faults become apparent and situation tangled they treat clients like it was their fault. Do a deep research before you commit. However, as tempting and promising it is whatever they offer I strongly advise to avoid any involvement with Nu Living.

Hi Nish, I am with you on this and many more. I have received the worst possible service and collectively Jason and the rest of the people from this team have been very disappointing, I took an offer to say good things about Swan NU Living, and put my name and face to there business in the The Metro well clearly I am going to contact the papers and retract my experience and what good things I have had to say about the process I am very upset and clearly need further action taken against this business and the way they behave. Talking to me in a patronizing behavior and think I am some peasant. Fazan Mustafa

Avoid this organisation at all costs. Had a terrible experience at their 360 Barking development which left me over 1500 out of pocket and caused 12 months of stress. Poor service, poor communication and I can't speak for other flats but the quality of the finish that I witnessed was below standard. I only give them 1 star because I have to.
