Naturopath Shoreham, West Sussex
Nicole offers a naturopathic consultation with a functional approach. This means using primarily: lifestyle, nutrition and herbal medicine to help you with the concerns that you have presented. With the addition of using functional medical testing, when needed, to find the root cause of your problem.
It is becoming better known that the food we eat plays a vital role in our health. Food can have powerful effects on the body be it to help ease disease or create it. Herbs are also food but in a concentrated form and can be very beneficial when taken in tincture, powder or loose herb form. As a naturopath these are 2 primary focus points for Nicole to work on.
The objective of the naturopathic consultation is to help the body come back into balance.
When you attend to your appointment in person or via camera you can be assured that the main aim is to educate you on your health and to help you understand why and what changes need to be made. Our bodies will always work towards health.
You will be given lots of time to discuss your health concern in the naturopathy consultation so Nicole can understand about your current health and the options that lay before you. Nicole will also ask that you take a photo of your eye and email this over for an iridology assessment.
Nicole may request you undertake some laboratory testing this may be: stool, hair, urine or blood depending on what your symptoms are. Nicole and you will find that this, in turn, helps you to save money and time instead of trying lots of different things out. Testing services are via external labs and are an additional cost. Once your results back you will be required to attend a follow up session so your results can be interpreted to help you make the right lifestyles choices to improve your health.
Labs used are Genova diagnostics, Invivo Clinical, Cambridge Nutritional Sciences, Regenerous labs. Tests most commonly recommended are complete gut profiles, thyroid, adrenals and the DUTCH test – hormone profile.
When your body shows signs of dis-ease this may mean there is also a deficiency. Food alone will not usually help as our soils are so depleted in many nutrients nowadays and pesticides also kill them off. Usually herbs and supplements will be suggested.
It is common practice to follow up your session after about 1-3 months depending on what changes are to be made. Many clients come back in for follow sessions monthly or quarterly from here on if needed.
Nicole works with the ethos of treating the person with the disease rather than the disease itself.
If you have had any tests carried out within the last three months with your doctor or similar please have these to hand at the consultation.
All consultations can be carried out in person or via phone / facetime / WhatsApp.
