First of all, you can be sure your health concerns will be taken seriously,
regardless of the particular reason why you want to make an appointment. I will conduct a comprehensive initial consultation and get all relevant information about your current health to determine the most effective program of care for you.Your initial consultation will include an iridology assessment to gain an understanding of your inherited health disposition and allow for a more specific choice of remedies or treatment. You might also be asked to provide a urine sample for a Urinary Indicans test, which checks for leaky gut syndrome (also known as gut dysbiosis). Other tests may include a cellular health test, zinc status test and a Candida screen questionnaire, if indicated. The tests may vary depending on the nature of your visit.
Initially your health may need to be returned to a level that is considered essential to basic health. Once this is achieved, we can develop an individualized health plan, including short-term as well as long-term goals in a step-by-step format, to bring your health and wellbeing up to optimum levels. It will most likely incorporate all or any of the following: pharmaceutical-quality herbal medicines and tonics, nutritional supplements (of a quality only available to qualified practitioners), homeopathic medicines, flower essences, dietary and lifestyle adjustments.
Depending on your circumstances, follow-up consultations of half an hour (or fifteen minutes) are usually required. This helps me to adjust your treatment according to your response, and to take the treatment to a deeper level, if indicated. Follow-up consultation also give us the chance to ‘dig deeper’ as often there is not enough time to discuss everything in the first consultation. It also gives you an opportunity to ask further questions.
Naturopathic treatment is gentle and gradual. And while you will nearly always have a positive response after the first session, it is important to allow time for your body to get back into order…especially if you have had health problems for a number of years.
My Naturopath specializes in discovering the missing pieces to your ongoing health and wellbeing.
How to achieve vitality, longevity and healthy ageing?
You’ll be pleased to know that I am one of a select group of Healthcare Professionals who have received extensive training in maximising healthy ageing and improving vitality, also known as Vitality Longevity and Healthy Ageing (VLA) Testing. For that I use a scientifically validated test known as Biological Impedance Analysis (BIA), which assists me in designing a program specifically for your needs.Many people use BIA technology to assess their fat and muscle levels. However, it can also be used to determine intra cellular and extra cellular fluids levels. This gives me an indication of your body’s level of hydration. The nutritional supplements, exercise recommendations and dietary advice I provide will to give your body the building blocks for maximum health and energy.
What is Bio-impedance Analysis (BIA)?
BIA is a science that was originally developed for monitoring patients after surgery in a hospital setting. I will connect leads to your hands and feet and pass a low voltage electrical current through your body. This may sound alarming, but it is absolutely safe and painless, and provides me with insight into aspects of your health such as how much fat and muscle you have in your body. This science has even been used in several missions to space to monitor the changes to the astronauts’ body composition.Iridology Assessment
I am also an Integrated Iridologist, which involves examining your irises on a variety of levels including physical, mental, and emotional. Toni Miller, developer of Integrated Iridology, stated that, ”Every Iris is as unique as your fingerprint”.Iridology is the study of health through examination of the colour and structure of the iris, the sclera (the white part of the eye), and the pupil. It is a finely calibrated tool that can be used to detect inherent individual predispositions. Your eye is a reflection of your inheritance from three generations!
To quote Toni Miller again: ”Whether you develop your dispositions to the best case or worst case scenario depends on the way you eat, drink, think, live and love”.
Life Alignment
Life Alignment is a system of natural healing that aligns your subtle and physical bodies via your chakra and other subtle energy systems. Using Kinesiology, the technique helps to identify the root causes of pain, stress, illness, emotional blockages and limiting belief patterns.LA was developed by Dr Jeff Levin from South Africa over the last 25 years. Combined with the vortex technology he has developed, the technique can be used for personal and environmental healing, as well as protection from electromagnetic and negative geopathic radiation.
