What is Nutritional Therapy ?

Nutritional therapy is a form of complementary medicine that uses physiology, biochemistry, pathology, nutrition, naturopathic techniques and diagnostic procedures to determine an individual’s nutritional needs.

Biochemically speaking we are all individual.  Our needs are completely unique depending on a variety of factors, from the strengths and weaknesses we are born with – to the effect our current environment, diet and lifestyle have upon us.

Each programme is tailored to the client to provide essential nutrients, aid healing, enhance detoxification (where applicable) and thus enable the body to achieve and maintain….  

The Consultation

The initial step is to complete a detailed questionnaire.  The information this provides with regard to your health, symptoms and lifestyle enables a thorough assessment of your nutritional status. `

The first consultation normally lasts between 1 ½ hours and consists of further investigation into your health, clarification of your health complaints and the preparation of a nutritional programme specifically designed for you.

Recommendations may include dietary changes, specific supplements as needed, lifestyle changes and the recommendation of further tests if necessary.

Supplements are prescribed on an individual basis to address nutrient deficiencies, whilst improvements are made to your diet, enabling your body to heal itself.  Once improvements are seen, supplements can be reduced to a maintenance dose to ensure optimum health for the future.

Further consultations are usually advised in order to assess progress and make adjustments and last ¾ hour.

As the consultations are educational, there is no need to keep returning for further consultations once health improvements have been made.  Typically you will need three to four visits over three to six months.
