What to expect at your consultation
The initial consultation takes 1 – 1 ½ hours. This includes things like questioning about health, diet, lifestyle, likes and dislikes, your expectations, physical examination (E.g. Blood pressure, zinc status, signs of anaemia), and finally an individual treatment plan with herbal medicine and supplements as indicated.
Follow-up consultations are important to monitor progress, and make any adjustments to your treatment plan or herbal remedy as you improve. These take around 30-45 minutes.
Services available at the clinic- Naturopathic consultations
