Naturopathy is a holistic approach to health and well being. My approach is to identify what is happening with the individual, to identify why it is happening in the body and then to use natural remedies to address symptoms and the cause.

I take a comprehensive history, check for dysfunction in each body system and assess the impact that diet, lifestyle factors and emotional issues may have. I do a physical assessment by taking your blood pressure, having a look at your nails and tongue, and using a detailed whole body diagnostic approach called iridology.

I work with you to help you understand the underlying reasons for your ill health and explain the aims of treatment so that you can monitor your progress and fulfil your potential for good health and vitality.

Treatment may include herbal medicine, diet and nutrition, flower remedies, homeopathy, exercise and counselling.
