All new clients can complete the personal health evaluation before your first consultation to ensure we make the most of our time together and to make up for any limitations due to being online rather than having an in person consultation.  

This is where we have the opportunity to discuss your health concerns in depth including not only your presenting condition but also how you as a person are feeling. This first consultation can take up to 1.30 hours, is completely confidential and while thorough, is approached in a relaxed manner to help you feel at ease. Typical questions include past medical history, diet and lifestyle, medication (bringing in a list is useful) and family medical history. 

I also go through all the major systems, for example, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, energy etc. I also ask you to stick your tongue out! You would be surprised what we can find out from your tongue! Take your pulse, look at your hands and take your blood pressure. If required we carry out a physical examination, for example muscular skeletal if you are experiencing back pain or respiratory if you have been experiencing a cough. Last but by no means least, I will ask what has brought you to see me and what you expect from the consultation. Everyone is different and what may appear to be the most severe symptom to me, may not be to you.

After the consultation I will work on a treatment strategy, which may include a herbal tincture, a tea and or a cream. Advice may also be suggested with regards to diet and lifestyle or the inclusion of certain vitamins or minerals. While I will look at herbs that help reduce symptoms, I will also be looking at the cause of any condition or disorder and select herbs that start to work on that root cause. Each client leaves with a specific personalized herbal remedy at the required dosage and strength for you as an individual.

Follow up consultations are carried out between 2-3 weeks after to get an idea of how the treatment plan is working, how are you feeling and if any changes are required to the remedy. Follow up consultations typically last for around 30-45 minutes and the number of follow ups required can vary from one to ongoing depending on the condition.

* I can provide face-to-face consultations, by phone or e-mail, or through video conferencing. If the method is not face-to-face, the client will be required to send his medical records and other related information to me, through e-mail prior to the consultation.
