What To Expect From An Initial Naturopath Consult?
One-on-one consultations are offered via the free online conferencing program ZOOM. Initial consultations run for 75 minutes. During the appointment a range of questions will be covered to determine the root cause of your presenting issue. We will go over your health history, family history, physical and emotional symptoms, your lifestyle practices and diet. We will also review any supplements or medications that you are currently taking as well as what skin care you are currently using.
At the end of the consult, I will explain to you what I believe to be going on in your body, holistic lifestyle and diet suggestions will be made, your nutritional status will be assessed, further testing and evidence-based prescriptions will be discussed based on your presentation.
Online Consultations
In the current covid-19 climate I have moved my clinic online to ensure the safety of my clients and myself. Rest assured that online consultations are conducted in the exact same way as in person. Naturopathy does not require hands on assessment for treatment to be effective.
I will ask you to send me through photos of your skin prior to the consultation, so that I can get a good look and see what we are working with.
Your privacy is my priority and sessions will never be recorded. There will never be anyone else in the room whilst the session is taking place.
Online consultations have a lot of benefits. There is no hassle about driving, traffic or parking, which can be a major cause of stress. You can be in the comfort of your own home, even in your own bed if you like! BYO cup of tea.
Before your Consultation
After you book in I will email you an extensive form to fill in prior to our session detailing some of your medical history, your current skin treatment if any, and a detailed list of all of your skin products. This means we don’t have to waste time and can get straight into the nitty gritty in the consultation. I will also ask you to email me through recent blood tests as well as photos of your skin.
After your Consultation
A holistic treatment plan will be emailed to you within 24 hours along with any handouts, recipes or links to online resources. A follow up appointment will be scheduled between 1-4 weeks in advance, depending on your condition.
Prescriptions
After our consult I will register you for an online courier service for herbal and nutritional supplements. An email will be sent to you with a shopping cart. You just need to click through and everything will be sent to your door.
As Naturopathy is completely individualised and no two treatment plans are the same, prescription costs can vary between $0-$300. I understand that natural health care can be expensive, therefore I receive no commission from product sales, and there is no markup on the online dispensary. You will automatically receive approximately 15% discount on all products when compared to other clinic/retail outlets.
Testing
If testing is required, a test kit is ordered and sent to your house with detailed instructions. I use a lab called Nutripath which is located in Burwood, Victoria. Some tests are collected by yourself (saliva and stool) and others are done at your closest collection centre. Your sample is then sent to the lab and results are sent directly to me. We will go through your results together at our next consultation via screen share on ZOOM, and everything will be explained to you. My aim is to educate all of my clients on what is going on in their body so that you walk away empowered with knowledge.

Testing can be done for:
- Complete gut microbiome mapping (including parasites, bacteria, candida, gluten sensitivity and much more)
- SIBO breath testing
- Hormones (female and male hormones, cortisol, thyroid hormones)
- Nutritional blood analysis
- Hair mineral analysis for heavy metals
- Liver function and detoxification pathway testing
- Food intolerances
Commitment
Skin cells are renewed every 28 days, so it takes around 1 month of treatment to see noticeable changes in the skin. Usually we are looking at around 3-6 months of regular check ins and prescriptions to get your body to a place of homeostasis. I promise it's worth it!!!
