Naturopathy
What is Naturopathy?
Naturopathy incorporates a range of natural therapies, treating the body as a whole aiding to identify and assist the body in healing itself. Many of these therapies are backed up with evidence dating back hundreds of years as well as recent scientific evidence. As a naturopath and intuitive herbalist, I look at the current research as much as the traditional medicine, prescribing ranges and your body's vital force.
It all begins with your history. An initial consultation goes over who you are, what has happened, and where you are now. History and family health issues assist me in identifying body systems that may need more support to support your body as a whole, ultimately. Advice may be simple dietary recommendations through to complex meal planning, supplementation through nutraceuticals, herbal tinctures, tea or powder and lifestyle advice. Depending on your answers, I may suggest pathology testing, genetic testing or another testing which will delve deeper into what your body needs. Due to the complexity of the body, there are no quick fixes, but I can certainly assist with some of the symptoms at the same time as starting the process of healing. Follow up consultations keep you on track and help me change prescriptions and advice as things change and your body begins to heal.
As a naturopath and Herbalist, I will continue to help you reach your goals and dreams. I like you to know why you are removing foods, adding foods or taking supplements. I can not help but elaborate and look at all aspects of the body, rather than targeting one system or symptom. I live and breathe natural medicine and teaching. I will give you books to read, send you scientific evidence and handouts so you understand the importance and just how amazing nourishing your body can feel.

An initial consultation covers everything from your history to what you would like assistance with. I also may take your blood pressure, check your blood glucose levels, and check your nails, tongue, and circulation or perform an iridology assessment if you are in the clinic, if consulting over zoom I may ask you questions in regards to this. An initial consultation is up to an hour.

A follow up consultation allows me to check how you are feeling from any products, allows a review of pathology, testing or food & mood dairies. These consultations are anywhere from two to four weeks after your initial consultation and you are welcome to email your questions or pathology / scans prior to then go over it during this consultation. Depending on the health concern I do like to see you monthly to ensure you are getting the best from your prescription (as health is not linear).
If you become pregnant through my program or are pregnant then I like to see you every trimester as a minimum to sure you are feeling well and we are onto of any possible issues that may arise (like low iron, morning sickness, gestation diabetes, restless legs to name a few).

An acute consult is for those who many need some quick natural remedies for an acute condition such as cold, flu, tonsillitis, headache or gastro and need a script to assist with healing in the short term for this specific self-limiting condition.
