The Hearth Institute is a physician-led whole systems health advisory practice founded by Dr Kim Jessica Jackson.
Focused on gut, metabolic and preventative health, the practice offers deep medical interpretation and strategic health guidance for individuals seeking a more personalised approach to long-term wellbeing.
Drawing on her experience in gastroenterology, hepatology, nutrition and lifestyle medicine, Dr Jackson helps patients understand the connections between digestion, metabolism, inflammation, hormones, stress and everyday habits.
Through extended consultations and collaborative client journeys, she works with individuals to build sustainable foundations for health rather than simply managing isolated symptoms.
The Hearth Institute is an advisory practice rather than a prescribing clinic.
Its focus is on education, interpretation, prevention and lifestyle-based strategies that support long-term health, empowering individuals to better understand their bodies and make informed decisions about their wellbeing.
The Hearth Institute sits alongside The House of Brìghde, Dr Jackson’s wider ecosystem of food, education and traditional wisdom.
Through The Living Apothecary and Kitchen Apothecary, she explains the role of nourishment, botanicals,, seasonal living, ritual and community in supporting wellbeing.
Together these initiatives reflect her belief that optimal health is created not only through modern medical knowledge, but also through reconnecting with the timeless human practices that cultivate meaning, resilience, belonging and vitality.
