A questionnaire is completed and returned to the clinic prior to your consultation to give the necessary information on your previous medical history, stress levels together with the current state of your physical and emotional health. Your initial appointment will include a review of your questionnaire and the key health concerns that you wish to be addressed, oriental diagnosis (including pulse and tongue), iris examination, kinesiology, body talk and, if appropriate, the use of non-invasive diagnostic tests such as saliva or urine analysis and laboratory tests (that measure specific areas such as digestion, production and regulation of hormones etc.), so that any underlying imbalances in your body can be identified.
My approach combined Chinese Medicine, Natural Medicine with the latest breakthroughs in preventative medicine - known as Functional Medicine. By combining both Western and Eastern diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, the most appropriate course of treatment is determined that utilises an eclectic combination of complementary therapies to suit your individual requirements. This may include Chinese medicine including acupuncture, herbs, homoeopathy, Spagyric medicine, nutritional therapy and the use of scientifically evaluated nutriceuticals to correct underlying deficiencies and promote detoxification and regeneration, therapeutic bodywork, and energy medicine which includes Reiki and healing of energy centres. Through a process of regular consultations, your progress will be monitored, adjusting prescriptions and treatments to achieve optimum results.
