Our Naturopath aims to create a treatment protocol, which suits you, your choices and your busy lifestyle. Loose weight fast on our weight-loss programme, or take a more leisurely approach. Detox slowly over time or take a more intensive approach. The choice is yours.

Initial consultations (1hour) consist of a discussion on health symptoms, health history (self and family) diet, lifestyle, aims and goals, current health status as assessed using Live blood microscopy and Iridology. This information forms the basis for treatment. Further consultations are usually conducted at a fortnightly interval, 30min in duration and vary according to client needs.
“My aim with every client is to achieve long term, permanent symptom reduction. The client should ideally leave a consultation feeling empowered and with the tools they need regain health, to prevent disease and remain energetic and healthy –well into the future.”

Herbs, vitamins/minerals, teas, dietary/exercise guidance and practitioner only supplements are used to treat health problems and reduce symptoms of imbalance. Favorite products are those, which achieve the most requiring minimal effort, as our busy lifestyles can make it tricky to make a large number of changes at once. Compliance is optimized wherever possible. Herbs are available in capsule or liquid form and care is taken to create a protocol, which is easy to follow.

Live Blood Microscopy

Live blood microscopy is a unique technique used to formulate an appropriate course of natural health building/lifestyle principles to optimize health, prevent disease and to monitor individual effectiveness of products and therapies. This tool can assist in guiding the individual on an appropriate course of action towards achieving a state of optimal health and well-being. It involves taking a single drop of blood, placing it on a glass slide and then together with the client viewing the image on a monitor.

We are thus able to view red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and plasma. Relevant are the size, shape and mobility of these cells and the clarity of blood plasma, which ensures unimpeded flow of blood and thus optimal oxygenation and nutrient transport to cells, tissues and organs in the body.

Red blood cells require Vit B12, Folic Acid, Iron, Vit E, EFA’s and other nutrients to form properly. Even the slightest imbalance in these nutrients can affect the red blood cells ability to support oxygenation and nutrient transport. Blood is the fluid, which circulates through the heart and blood vessels to every part of the body. It is the primary means of transport within the body, transporting oxygen from the lungs to tissues and carbon dioxide from the tissues to the lungs along with nutrients and metabolites. It also removes waste products with the help of the liver, kidney and skin.

To see what state the blood and internal environment is in, gives the client and the naturopath instant clues on health direction and an appropriate course of action. We can then set about fine-tuning and optimizing nutrient levels, healing signs of leaky gut, eliminating/reducing fungal, parasitic and bacterial presence, removing heavy metals, toxic load from the body, improving liver function and gut viability, undertaking a detoxification programme, and water/herbal irrigations which are all very powerful ways to improve health. The way in which we treat our bodies has a direct impact on our health at a cellular level and to become aware of this, can be very powerful in directing our health choices. Blood is viewed and images saved at each naturopathic consultation on a fortnightly basis, until optimal cell viability is established. This generally requires between 2 to 5 visits.

Iridology

The iris is the junction for nerve pathways to every part/system and organ of the body. As such anything that occurs to disrupt nerve supply can be identified in the fibres of the iris. Iridology can be used to provide direction during treatment and to highlight strengths andweaknesses. Constitutional types are identified according to Bernard Jensen’s Theories. “Surprises with its accuracy again and again.”

Dietary protocols

A range of dietary protocols is available to cater for individuals with differing needs. Some focus on reducing allergenic load (low reactive diet), some reduce GI (for weight loss). The blood type diet is designed to improve nutrient uptake/assimilation and reduce allergenic response to foods. Diet is considered vital in its role for disease prevention and longevity.
