Consultation

What to Expect in a Naturopathic Consultation?

A detailed patient history is taken to assess both your current health and past medical history.

Assessments are made using traditional diagnostic techniques as other less well-known techniques such as iridology, tongue and nail examinations.

Blood tests and other medical tests may also be recommended if required.

A treatment programme is then devised to suit your individual needs and lifestyle. Treatments may include herbal medicine, nutritional supplements, dietary modification and lifestyle recommendations.

If you are taking prescription medication, drug-herb-nutrient interactions will be taken into account.

With your consent, Madeleine will also liaise with your medical doctor or other allied health professionals, if required.

Initial consultations take one hour and follow-up consultations between 30 and 45 minutes.
