Your Consultation The Naturopathic consultation is built around listening to each individual’s health story. During an initial consultation, an in-depth and detailed case history is taken, including detailed medical, diet and exercise history, as well as lifestyle and occupational habits to gain a holistic sense of a person’s health picture. An initial consultation generally is 1 hour in length, depending on the case. At the conclusion of the initial consultation, a treatment plan is recommended. Naturopathic Medicine recognises and respects that each person is unique and therefore the healing plan (program) that is developed must be reflective of each person’s individuality – one size does not fit all. The treatment recommendations are based on each individual’s goals, abilities, as well as limitations. The treatment is also designed so each person feels comfortable with it and is ready to integrate it into his or her daily life. A person’s treatment recommendations will change and develop as they continue to improve their health and well-being. Follow-up consultations to gauge the changes that have occurred in a person’s health concerns generally last 20 - 30 minutes. The frequency and number of follow-up consultations is entirely dependent on each individual case. Generally, we like to see a patient monthly, but this may change to fortnightly or even weekly in certain circumstances. Are you visiting this page because you wish to have a consultation?
