A combination of therapies may be used during any appointment both for investigation to help decide on treatment recommendations and in the prescription itself. The main therapies used are:
Homotoxicology
This is modern, or complex homoeopathy and is a natural form of medicine known as bio-regulatory medicine. This literally means it helps your body to regulate itself and in doing so helps to move you away from symptoms and diseases. This is in contrast to traditional western medicine which works to suppress symptoms through drugs which may have toxic affects on your body. Find out more about Homotoxicology
Nutrition
Nutritional Medicine works to restore health by addressing deficiences or imbalances in your status of vitamins, minerals, and other vital components necessary for optimal health. Treatment may include supplements and/or advice on particular foods to include or avoid in your diet. Optimum nutrition is vital for every single thing your mind or body needs to accomplish every second of your life and you should not underestimate the affect that imbalances or deficiences can have.
Hormone Testing
Hormones are molecules that send signals throughout your body. These signals give messages to cells telling them how to respond. When you are in optimal health the hormones, and therefore all the dependent organs and systems, work like clock-work. However, if there is an imbalance in these messages the signals get distorted and organs and systems become imbalanced. These problems may be invisible to you for some time, even years, before you start to suffer symptoms. Alternatively you may realise that you are not feeling quite as good as you used to, eg gained a bit of weight, not sleeping so well, feeling a bit fed up or stressed sometimes, but you probably havent associated what you are feeling with a likely hormone imbalance.
Hormone testing allows us to see exactly what is going on and develop protocols, usually using supplements of herbs, vitamins, and minerals, to help you get back on track before symptoms get worse and you have to go to your GP for artifical help with managing your hormones.
