Welcome to Natural Medicine Practice
Could your current diet creating troublesome symptoms, or even a chronic disease in your life?
At the Natural Medicine Practice we know that a healthy body starts with a healthy gut. Unlikely as it may at first seem, improving the digestive system, eating food as nature intended and eating correctly for your type will gradually give you the health you are seeking.
We can we make you feel alive and vital again!
The Natural Medicine Practice specializes in Digestive and Allergic Disorders with specific interest in female fertility and hormonal complaints. Under the caring hands of Tammy Mitchum, qualified Naturopath, Nutritionist and Herbalist and founder of the practice, you will gain relief from your symptoms in a short time, often from a simple dietary change.
Your health is our passion, so we tailor treatments that are specific to you and only you. We don’t offer ‘one size fits all’ programs nor send you away with a shopping bag of supplements. Our consultations seek the root cause of your symptoms and we take time to guide and advise you on how to make the simple changes to your lifestyle that will make a tangible, positive difference to the way you feel everyday.
Your Consultation
This involves a focused 60-90 minute consult to determine where your health is now. An extensive case history is taken where Tammy gains an understanding of your key concerns and symptoms and a number of in-clinic tests (outlined below) are conducted to help determine your baseline health.
At this first consult you will usually be given general advice as Tammy then goes to the drawing board to prepare your ‘Report of Findings’ and personalised treatment plan. You won’t, however, go away empty handed! You’ll receive a hand out of specific instructions to begin the journey to a new healthier you along with Tammy’s optimal diet booklet.
Follow on consultation
This typically takes place one week later and is around 30 – 45 minutes long. Tammy presents you with your written report gleaned from the analysis of your test results and case history. You will gain an understanding of the possible underlying causes of your health challenges, what has been happening in your body and the tangible steps you can take to gain better quality health. If any extra testing from other sources will provide a clearer picture, Tammy might suggest you consider these. In addition to your report, you will be given detailed articles on your health issue along with dietary sheets and menus.
Alternative follow up consultations
Subsequent follow up consults can be either face to face, telephone or online. See Services, Consultation Types for more information. The suitability of these convenient alternatives depends upon the distance you are travelling and your specific health challenges, as regular monitoring is sometimes required over a period of time. Tammy will advise which is more appropriate for you.
A word about supplements
At this stage supplements and herbal formulas specifically formulated for your needs may be prescribed. The Natural Medicine Practice philosophy is to utilise diet and lifestyle changes as the key to achieving good health, so nutritional supplements are recommended when there is a specific need and tangible results are anticipated through the use of these resources.
