Client Testimonial July 2012

Thank you so much for your advice on drinking water regularly. After just three days of drinking a minimum three litres of water, I feel healthier, thinner, and my skin feels better! I feel energised and more positive towards my challenges each day. I will keep you posted as I keep myself hydrated! Thanking you kindly, Jimmy from Mayfield

Initial Clinical Assessment Consultation $90.00 / 1 ½ hours Our clinic offers an evidence-based holistic approach to happier healthier lives. Before an initial clinical assessment you will be asked to complete a comprehensive online health questionnaire which may take up to an hour, (if you do not have internet access a paper copy can be provided). During your initial appointment your therapist will ask questions about your personal medical history, your family medical history, your current health status, and your future health goals. After your appointment a personal comprehensive wellness plan will be formulated that may include: Personalised dietary advice to help you make

informed food choices that will lead to a healthier ‘you’.

Specific lifestyle recommendations to help you

enjoy a happier, healthier, simpler life. Prescription of herbal preparations and

nutritional compounds that will support your body’s innate capacity to heal itself.

Common-sense, practical, economically viable

suggestions to help you enhance your vitality and wellbeing.

If you require ongoing support to reach your health goals your therapist may invite you to attend one of our wellbeing support groups or suggest a follow up appointment. Your therapist may provide you with a request for blood tests if further medical investigation is required. If your therapist feels that you require further medical attention you may be referred to another healthcare practitioner. Your therapist is always willing to work as part of a multidisciplinary team to ensure you receive the most appropriate and most complete care.
