Trained Holistic Therapist
Giacomo Sandri
I, Giacomo, the mind behind Vitalise, have practised seven years as a medical herbalist and specialised in the treatment of chronic fatigue. During this time, I discovered a landscape of misinformation and confusion surrounding the true pathways to restoring energy and vitality in those suffering from chronic fatigue, ME, fibromyalgia and long COVID. Drawing from the rich traditions of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the wisdom of Western Herbalism, and the rigour of evidence-based medicine, I have crafted a holistic approach that has repeatedly brought renewed vitality to my clients.
By guiding individuals to transform their diets, restore gut health, and fortify their organ systems, I’ve achieved remarkable success in alleviating long-term symptoms of chronic fatigue. Vitalise was born from my passion to provide a clear, effective path to reclaiming energy, vitality, and overall well-being. This is achieved through a harmonious blend of herbs, nutrition, and exercise. The Holistic Vitality program ensures access to the finest nutritional supplements, paired with potent, highly concentrated herbal remedies, offering a truly restorative experience.

“When I had my initial call I wasn’t motivated, but after a few sessions together, Giacomo gently guided me to gain confidence in myself. That helped make my day to day life simpler, and appreciate simple things again.”
FAQs
Are herbs safe to use alongside medications?
Most of the herbs we will incorporate into your program are known for being safe and free of significant side effects when used within the recommended dosages. However, it’s essential to consider potential interactions between herbs and medications. We’ll carefully evaluate your current medications and medical history to ensure the selected herbs complement your treatment plan without any adverse effects. Your safety is our top priority.
Can chronic fatigue be reversed?
Absolutely! With the right combination of dietary optimization, targeted herbal remedies, and lifestyle adjustments, the symptoms of chronic fatigue can be significantly reduced and often completely resolved. Each step in the process focuses on restoring balance to your body, improving energy levels, and addressing the root causes of fatigue to help you feel revitalized and resilient.
How long will it take to regain my energy and vitality?
The timeline varies from person to person, depending on factors such as the severity of your condition and your commitment to implementing the recommended changes. The more consistent and proactive you are with the dietary, herbal, and lifestyle strategies we outline, the faster you can expect to see results.

“Giacomo is amazing at what he does, so much attention to detail about how you are living and seeks to truly understand why and what your body is responding to. I first came across Giacomo when I was really experiencing quite extreme symptoms of long covid, this involved brain fog, muscle fatigue, skin conditions and hair loss. He made me a bespoke herbal medicine and it calmed my skin is just a few weeks. My hormones were balanced, my sleep great and my symptoms really reduced quite significantly. He is so approachable and really makes you feel at ease. I can’t recommend his holistic services enough.”
