I’m Sandy Fernandes, a certified Metabolic Balance® Coach and Health and Wellness Coach based in Oakville, Ontario, Canada.

With over 20 years of experience as a Registered Massage Therapist, I’ve dedicated much of my professional life to helping people feel better in their bodies and improve their overall well-being. Over time, my passion for health naturally expanded into nutrition, lifestyle, and the important role they play in how we feel, function, and age.

My interest in midlife women’s health became especially personal when I entered perimenopause and suddenly found myself struggling with changes in my weight, despite maintaining the same healthy habits that had always worked for me. I know firsthand how frustrating it can be when you’re doing everything you think you should, yet your body no longer seems to respond the way it once did.

That experience inspired me to deepen my understanding of nutrition and the changes that occur during midlife, ultimately leading me to Metabolic Balance.

Along with my Metabolic Balance certification, I hold Level 1 and Level 2 certifications through Precision Nutrition and am continuing my studies in holistic nutrition.

I believe that lasting health isn’t achieved through restrictive diets, quick fixes, or striving for perfection. It’s about learning to understand your body, nourishing it with the right foods, and creating habits that support your well-being.

My goal is to help clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes that last.

My practice focuses on helping adults achieve sustainable weight management and improve their overall health through personalized nutrition and lifestyle coaching. While I work with both women and men, I have a special interest in supporting women over 40 who are navigating the changes of perimenopause and menopause.

If you’ve been struggling with stubborn weight gain, feeling frustrated with diets that don’t deliver lasting results, or simply want to feel healthier and more confident in your body, you’re in the right place.

Through the Metabolic Balance® program, I offer a personalized approach to nutrition based on your individual health history, laboratory results, and unique nutritional needs.

Rather than following another one-size-fits-all diet, you’ll receive a structured food plan designed specifically for you, along with the guidance and support to help you put it into practice.

But my approach goes beyond food.

I believe that lasting change also involves looking at the bigger picture, including sleep, stress management, physical activity, emotional well-being, and the everyday habits that influence our health.

Throughout our three-month program, we’ll work together through five individual coaching sessions, with ongoing messaging support during office hours. My role is to help you navigate challenges, build confidence in your choices, and develop sustainable habits that fit your lifestyle.

My goal is not simply to help you lose weight, but to help you develop a healthier relationship with food, better understand your body, and feel your best for years to come.

Based in Oakville, Ontario, I offer virtual coaching so you can receive personalized support from the comfort of your home.

I’d love to help you take that first step toward feeling healthier, more confident, and more like yourself again.
