Everything you need to know before beginning your healing journey.
I will explain the basic principles of herbal medicine and naturopathy and what it can offer. Using a confidential assessment form as a tool we will comprehensively discuss your health and wellbeing and medical history. I will also use a variety of diagnostics which could include tongue and pulse diagnosis, iridology, blood pressure, general observations and occasionally physical examination for which permission will be sought. This will be dependent on the individual circumstances, for example pulse and blood pressure cannot be assessed via video consultations. I will then agree a treatment plan and prescription with you which could include herbal medicines, naturopathic advice, supplements, Bach Flower remedies and any other relevant advice. A follow-up consultation is then arranged for approximately 3-4 weeks later to assess how well things are working and if any adjustments need to be made. I am always contactable by phone and email for any concerns in between consultations.
Initial consultations can take between 90 minutes and 2 hours depending on the complexity. Follow-up consultations are normally much shorter between 30 to 40 minutes.
This is a very individual situation! Some people see improvements in the first few weeks, for others it can be slightly longer. For very chronic long-standing conditions it can be a much lengthier process as when the body has been compromised for a while there can be multiple systems affected with each needing to be addressed one at a time.
An initial consultation is charged at £76. Follow-up consultations are charged at £38. This does not include the cost of any herbal medicine prescription or any other advised supplements. A typical 4 week herbal prescription costs around £44 but depending on individual requirements, can be more or less than this.
In herbal and natural medicine we treat the whole person involving the physical body, and emotional and mental health well-being. We dig deeper into the issues and address the root causes of disease rather than treating the symptoms. With natural health advice and herbs we can restore the body’s equilibrium.
