HOW CAN YOU BENEFIT?
My aim is to work closely with you to correct imbalances and restore your health using safe, natural remedies and optimising your diet and lifestyle.
Comprehensive health assessments
With any health disorder, it is essential to identify and treat the underlying causes. During your initial consultation, I will take a comprehensive case history, carry out a full body system assessment, and analyse your diet and lifestyle in order to develop a treatment protocol designed specifically for you.
Bio-Impedance Analysis: During your initial consultation, where relevant, your body composition will be measured using BIA (Bio-Impedance Analysis), a scientifically validated computerised system used for assessing the biomarkers of ageing, including body fat percentage, muscle mass, hydration, cellular health and your ‘biological age’. The BIA is an extremely useful tool for generating your health goals, measuring your progress, assisting with weight loss and improving the markers of ageing.
Other diagnostic tools that may be of benefit to you include:
- Salivary and urinary hormone testing: this is a highly useful and relevant diagnostic tool if you are suffering from hormonal imbalances such as premenstrual symptoms, menopausal symptoms, menstrual and reproductive difficulties, sleep disorders, anxiety, exhaustion and many other symptoms.
- Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis: to assess mineral status as well as heavy metal toxicity.
- Blood testing: to assess nutritional and hormone levels.
- Iridology: to check underlying imbalances in the system.
- Other functional pathology testing as needed: I believe it is important to conduct scientifically valid testing as needed in order to properly assess the underlying drivers contributing to your health concerns.
Individual treatment programs
Once I have completed a full assessment of your health, diet and lifestyle, I will design an individual treatment program to address your specific needs. The program may include herbal, nutritional and homoeopathic remedies, as well as changes to your diet and lifestyle in order to optimise your health and wellbeing. If necessary, I will work closely with your doctor in order to optimise your health care program.
