Natural Medicines
Herbal Medicine
Concentrated liquid extracts of herbals, blended by the practitioner for each individual patient. These medicines have stood the test of time. They have been used through the ages as traditional medicine, and now they are having their actions tested and proven by medical science.
Homeopathy
Low dose specific medicine chosen as it matches the specific symptom pattern of the patient. For example, while cutting onions, we complain of burning, itching, watering eyes. Some hayfever sufferers present with this as their most irritating symptom. The homeopathic remedy made from onion, Allium Cepa, can treat that specific hayfever symptom pattern.
Bach flowers
Herbal based remedies that particularly target emotions. These can be a wonderful way to treat emotional disturbances, and a tool to understanding them.
Nutritional Medicine
A variety of diagnostic tests, including where appropriate blood tests, are employed to ensure thorough diagnosis and management of your nutrient status. My aim is to ensure you have all the nutrition necessary to perform at your optimum; to be symptom free and feeling great.
Where the diet does not provide enough specific nutrition, where lifestyle factors deplete nutrients rapidly, or where specific health complaints call for an increased demand of nutrients, supplementation can be used.
Lifestyle advice
Detailed advice around how you can implement some convenient changes in regard to food, leisure and work, to bring relief to your health complaint and optimize your health. Advice is always sensitive to the restrictions of your lifestyle and can be as simple or as detailed as required.
Massage Therapy
I give therapeutic deep tissue massage to treat specific health complaints, provide great relaxation, and soothe tired, sore muscles. Massage therapy is a treatment that can be adapted for occasional use, to manage long term or acute complaints, for a special occasion or for a deserving reward after your hard work. It can also be a regular commitment to health enhancement or management of ongoing problems.
A private practitioner for over 8 years, and a member of ANTA, which ensures regular update of my professional education, you can be assured of the highest grade of safety and efficacy with regard to diagnosis and treatment.
