About Dainora
Helping you feel better about your body and your life
Hi, I’m Dainora Bickauskiene
Registered Nutritional Therapist | Advanced Functional Medicine Health Consultant (AFMHC) | AIP Coach
I’m a registered Nutritional Therapist, Certified Functional Medicine Health ConsultantTM (AFMHC) and an AIP (Autoimmune Paleo) Coach. I’m also the founder of My Autoimmune Nutrition Clinic, where I support people living with autoimmune conditions, inflammation, hormones, gut and skin health challenges through personalised nutrition and functional medicine.
My own health journey began in my teenage years with psoriasis, along with chronic sinus issues and constant headaches. It wasn’t until much later that I discovered mould, dairy, and gluten were major triggers for me. That discovery transformed my life. Today, I live symptom-free and I’m passionate about helping others feel the same relief and freedom in their own bodies.
I understand how confusing and overwhelming autoimmune symptoms can be. That’s why I focus on getting to the root of what’s going on, using the right testing when needed, and creating a plan that actually works for you. I’m always learning, always digging deeper, because real healing starts with understanding.
“My goal is to share everything I’ve learned — both professionally and personally — to help others calm inflammation, manage their autoimmune symptoms, and feel like themselves again.”
Working with Me
Living with an autoimmune condition shaped everything about the way I work. I know how it feels to be told your tests are “normal” when your body is clearly telling you something is wrong. That’s why I bring both clinical knowledge and real-life experience to the way I support my clients.
My work priorities is in finding the root causes of symptoms — whether that’s gut health, inflammation, immune dysfunction, or hidden triggers. Together, we’ll explore what your body needs, using personalised nutrition, lifestyle support, and testing if needed, to guide our approach.
I believe every healing journey is unique. Some clients start feeling better with small shifts. Others need deeper, more focused support. No matter where you’re starting, we’ll work together step by step, with compassion and a clear plan.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d love to support you.
