“Trust in the healing power of nature”

Naturopathic Medicine is based upon the 6 fundamental principles. The first of six states to trust in the body’s inherent or innate wisdom to heal itself. As a Naturopath, our role is to help guide you there. To read more about the Naturopathic principles I practice by, click What is a Naturopath?

At Health@Hand our goal is to help you address your main health concerns, by supporting your body to heal itself. You will be supported in a number of ways and these can include various holistic modalities, including (but not limited to) food and lifestyle modifications and recommendations, herbal and nutritional supplementation where necessary and Therapeutic Massage. In Clinic Testing will be performed during consultations at no additional cost and Pathology Testing may also be recommended.

At Health@Hand, I can help people with various conditions. The following list is what I mainly focus on:

Womens health
Children and adolescent health
Immune Health
Pregnancy and pre-conception care
Weight Management
Gastro Intestinal Health
Detoxification and cleanse programs
Stress, anxiety and depression
Pain management
Energy
Corporate Health
Health maintenance and healthy ageing

Initial Consultation

Prior to the initial consultation, an online questionnaire will be asked to be completed. At the initial consultation, a thorough health assessment (including dietary history) will be conducted, asking you questions about your current health status, your presenting complaints and past ailments and conditions. A number of in clinic tests will also be performed at this stage to check your current health status.

Simple recommendations may be suggested at this stage to get you on the right track, however a follow up consultation is necessary to go over your full health report. Your case history will be assessed after your initial consultation, with all the necessary information obtained and your health report will be put together.

Relevant Pathology Testing and referrals will also be suggested if necessary.

Report of Findings Follow Up Consultation (Approx. 1 Week later)

After analysing your case history, in clinic tests and dietary intake, a review of the findings will be presented to you and a treatment plan will be discussed. At this stage recommendations will be made and herbal and nutritional medicines are recommended to support you.

Strategic follow-up appointments will be recommended at this stage and booked when necessary to monitor your progress.

On Going Follow Up Consultations

Regular follow-up appointments are necessary to address outcomes and to make any necessary changes and/or perform tests. This is also the time to offer extra support, guidance and extra resources to help you through the implementation stage. Having someone to help guide you and to be accountable to will help your progress and sustain changes for the long term. The number of subsequent follow-up appointments will be different for each person and case, and may be more frequent to begin with. Subsequent follow-up appointments are also made to repeat any necessary prescribed supplements and herbs or alter prescription.

Once you have achieved your primary health goals, periodic health check-ups are a great way to keep your health in check! this can be done monthly, seasonally to combat specific health needs (e.g. immune support in winter, hay fever support in spring, detoxification or cleanse programs to aid weightloss and support digestive health etc.) or even annually for your yearly Naturopathic health check up. Depending on your current health status and requirements, an initial or extended consultation can be booked for an assessment.

IN CLINIC TESTS

Various tests and methods will be conducted as part of your initial consultation and in follow-up consultations to assess changes and modifications where necessary. This will help to gain a clear understanding of your health picture.

These may include some or all of the following, where necessary:

Zinc Tally Test
Urinary pH Test
Ketostix urine analysis
Blood Pressure
Weight/BMI measurements
