Consultations
Prior to the first consultation you will be asked to complete a health questionnaire together with a 3-day food diary to give your Nutritional Therapist a good base of information and allow more time for you during your consultation. Please contact me for your copy of the health questionnaire.
During the first meeting important information about your health concerns, health and medical history, your aims and goals will be discussed which will help towards creating your personalised Health Plan. This is important in order to establish your preferences, time constraints, cooking facilities (and abilities) and lifestyle to be able to ensure that you receive a Health Plan which is realistic and will get your the best results. It is vital that your Nutritional Therapist knows about any medications, herbs or vitamins you may be taking to avoid any potential contraindications.
At your first visit you will receive your Health Plan for the coming few weeks. Depending on your requirements, your follow-up consultation may be set for 4, 6 or 8 weeks afterwards in order to monitor your progress and allow for changes and alterations to be made. If supplements are recommended, usually a one to three month programme is agreed and this can be adjusted at any time if necessary. Some supplements take a little while to start becoming effective so a longer programme may be recommended. If a test is advised, you may wish to have a follow-up consultation as soon as the results are returned in order to get going on your resulting recommended Health Plan.
The number of consultations required depends entirely on you, however, certain conditions have taken years to develop to how they are now, and so it may take a number of consultations, working on different aspects of your health, in order to allow your body to re-adjust and have time to heal.
Consultations can take place in South West or Central London in a studio clinic, or home visits can be made on prior arrangement. Please contact me to find out where is most convenient for you.
