Health Consultations
Health Consultations
Consultations via Appointment
Identifying the underlying cause of any health challenge is key to returning your body to health, balance & vitality.
Through this time honoured tradition, based on trust and honesty, extensive questioning is used for this person-centred approach to establist a treatment protocol tailored specifically for you.
The health consultation process
Initial Consultation – approximately 1.5 hours (less for younger clients)
In our modern world our lives are often fast, and full of ‘busy’. With your first consultation, we take a big breath and slow down. Taking the time and space to investigate the underlying cause of any health condition, allows a treatment protocol to be tailored specifically to you.
During a consultation on your health history, signs and symptoms both past and present are discussed, blood pressure may be taken, blood test results analysed and explained, diet & lifestyle examined and advised in a realistic manner.
Relevant informational handouts will be given to you to take home.
For your safety, current medications and how they may interact with herbal medicine are always studied with the greatest of care and experience.
Remedies recommended may consist of liquid tinctures, dried herbs or powders, herbal tablets, essential oils, topical treatments, Bach flowers or nutrients. Always choosing the best quality approved products for you.
Follow – Up Consultation – approximately 15 to 45 minutes
Your first follow up will be recommended in 2 to 4 weeks after your initial consultation. It is very important to help support and answer any queries you may have. As a practitioner, it’s important that the treatment protocol is having the desired effect. So this can be a great time to change the protocol, even if it’s just for the taste!. As a client, it’s important you know where this is all heading. Change for long term or severe conditions is a step-by-step process. This support is vital for your journey to improved health and well being.
Follow-ups are not expected every time you require a repeat on any product. Pickups can be arranged at a time that suits you. Shorter follow-ups maybe sort from time to time when changes happen and herbs need to be changed or you haven’t had a check-up for some time.
Time frame
Natural therapies do not always take many months to resolve. As a measure – the longer your condition has been ‘brewing’ &/or the more severe your health issues, then the longer it may take. When clients are determined to resolve their health challenges, the results can be surprising. Of course, your comfort is paramount in this process. We will work together at a pace that is comfortable for you.
