Consultations

The initial consultation will include detailed questions about your current health, concerns, symptoms, medical and family history, lifestyle, activity levels, medications, psychological and emotional factors, habits and stress levels.

Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic condition in which the levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood are too high. Blood glucose levels are normally regulated by the hormone insulin, which is made by the pancreas.

Functional bowel

disorder

Chronic Abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, diarrhoea, and stool irregularities are common symptoms in primary care. Symptoms vary from one individual to another and some can be worse than others.

Oncology

The cause of cancer is seldom straightforward or attributable to a single factor. It would be naïve to say, "Eat x, the magic food and you won't get cancer".

Weight management

The term weight management generally is used to refer to the process of adopting long-term changes to your lifestyle in order to maintain a healthy body weight.

Neurological conditions

The interplay between nutrition and neurological disorders has gained increasing recognition. Various studies have shown how malnutrition and nutritional imbalances or intake of various drugs can exacerbate symptoms and disorders.
