​
INITIAL CONSULTATION - 75 minutes. SHORT INITIAL - 45 minutes.
All new first time patients to my clinic are encouraged to attend an initial appointment to allow time for a complete and comprehensive assessment on your health history and to allow for programming or re-programming of your existing health journey.
When you book an Initial Consultation our booking system will generate an email with a patient form to complete. If you have had any tests performed by your specialist or doctor, please also bring a copy of those with you for me to refer to and copy for your files. It is also a great time to bring your medications and supplementation that you are either currently taking or on your pantry shelf. If you have any specific requirements, we may forward further additional questionnaires pertaining to your health situation. Please complete the online form in your emailed confirmation before your appointment. In clinic testing and assessments are performed during the 75 minute Initial Consultation only.

​
FOLLOW UP APPOINTMENT - 15/30/45/60 minutes - depending on your needs
Follow up appointments are an important and necessary part of the success of your programming. Even if you haven't had the time and opportunity to implement your entire program from your initial appointment, the follow-up appointment allows us an opportunity to either re-work elements of your program so that you can break it down further, or adjust dosing if needed to ensure your supplements are sitting well for you.
These appointments are able to be charged in 15-minute increments and are relative to your individual needs, including your budget. In more straightforward health and wellbeing cases, your follow up appointment will be 30 minutes in duration. A longer follow up time frame is initially advised in more complex cases, however these will shorten once we reach momentum in your results. I will advise you at each appointment what may be required. Not all follow up appointments are going to involve additional supplements.

Homoeopathy
​
​
​
​
​
A Homeopathic consultation differs from a Naturopathic consultation in that time is taken by yourself to actually write your journey in your life and health to date, with some general prompting by our guidelines. The emphasis is not only on what you write, but how you write and the impact certain events in your life have had on you combined with your emotional and physical response to those.
This information will assist me to find a common theme that matches a homeopathic remedy profile and a family inherited trait profile, therefore leading to remedy selection and choice of potency and frequency of your prescription to bring your physical, mental and emotional health back into balance. This is a uniquely tailored and personal approach to healing and is managed in the strictest confidentiality. Medical data is still considered important so any reports will be reviewed and included, as it will help strengthen the selection of your remedies from a physical standpoint.

Bowel habits are often an uncomfortable and personal subject matter to discuss with someone you don't know well. However, having a good understanding of this function of your body also gives us a lot of important clinical information about other health related conditions that may be being influenced by your bowel health. This review session will be targeted totally on the relationship between what and how you eat, and what and how you eliminate your food after your body has used it for its functions. We can tell much about the status of digestion and may be some clues as to where to look next if we suspect you have unwanted visitors inhabiting your gut.
