What happens when I go for a consultation by phone or an online Zoom?
A detailed questionnaire is completed by you which looks at your previous history and past family history, current complaints and symptoms, medications, diet, mood, lifestyle and stress levels. Each question can be compared to a jigsaw giving a comprehensive picture of the patient’s health.
The consultation is broken into 3 parts
- Compiling a picture of the patient’s health. Several questions may be asked in addition to the information given in the questionnaire. Health of skin, hair and nails, colour of tongue and general demeanour may be noted. Information is gathered in a thorough fashion.
- Analysing of the relevant nuggets of information obtained and the designing of a Naturopathic Programme.
Giving the information to the patient. A Naturopath is primarily a teacher. A personalised programme (including herbal tincture/supplements if recommended) is prepared for you and explained. A probiotic is often advised and diet and lifestyle changes are sometimes suggested in designing a naturopathic healing programme aiming to give you the best and speediest improvement in health. Your herbs / supplements can be purchased at the clinic or online in our online shop where they can be collected or sent out by courier.
Is the service an alternative to conventional medicine?
No, we are a complementary medicine practice. We work in conjunction with the advice of your doctor. In fact, often GPs send patients to the clinic.
What if I occasionally forget to take the herbs?
While it is preferable that you take the herbs as directed, this is not a problem and it will not overly affect your treatment.

Can I buy herbs without having to have an appointment?
