about naturopathy and nutrition spirit alchemy essences prices contact

I am dedicated to understanding your unique body and its expression of illness.  I combine my health training, intuitive body sense, and ability to explain complex systems and functions to provide you with an interconnected understanding of your illness in the context of your whole-being. From this understanding I work in harmony with your body, experiences, lifestyle and desires to create a plan to achieve wellbeing.

Herbal Medicine

The power of herbal tinctures lies in their wholeness. This is why there are no side effects associated with the use of herbal tinctures as the plant naturally contains all the elements required to balance its action in the human body.  When compared to pharmaceutical medicines, which contain a single constituent, the herbal tincture of a single plant is made up of hundreds of constituents, such as phenols, salicylates, alkaloids and minerals.

I use herbal tinctures and liquid extracts from both the western tradition of England and America and the Eastern traditions of Asia and India.  I will mix 4 to 6 different plant tinctures together to create a unique blend for your healing.  I also mix medicinal herbal teas.

Sessions can be herbal medicine focused or can encompass food medicine and nutrients as well.  Initial sessions are for 60 or 90 minutes, follow-up sessions are 30 or 60 minutes.

Food Medicine

Food is a major source of human pleasure, my practice is to expand that pleasure to a fundamental level of deep soul nourishment.  Food medicine can bring pleasure to your every cell, a deep feeling of contentment and a sense of aliveness. 

I use food to integrate and root healing deeply into your life.  The medicinal properties of food can have a profound effect, oats of example are calming on the nervous system and introducing them into breakfast as porridge can reduce anxiety at work.

Sessions can be food focused or encompass herbs and nutrients as well.  Initial sessions are for 60 or 90 minutes, follow-up sessions are 30 or 60 minutes.

Nutritional Supplements

Nutritional medicine is not about having any particular mineral, vitamin or amino acid in your diet.  It is a specialised treatment method, because at a specific dose nutritional supplements will have a healing effect on the body.  For example at a specific dose zinc will act directly on virus cells to prevent them from replicating and magnesium will in induce muscle relaxation.  I have studied nutritional supplementation for 4 years and will work with you to correct nutritional deficiencies, relieve symptoms of illness, and uncover the digestive or functional causes of illness.

Sessions will combine nutritional and food medicine to bring healing and balance.  Initial sessions are for 60 or 90 minutes, follow-up sessions are 30 or 60 minutes.

Iridology

As an iridologist and naturopath I delve into the structure of the iris and read the indications of your constitutional make-up found in the eyes.  This tool can tell us the personal and unique WHY of disease. You may already know what the symptoms and label of your illness are, for example acne, millions of people suffer from acne but the reason why you have acne is specific to you.  Iridology can show us which organs of your body will be predisposed to lowered functioning or disease and this then forms the basis of diagnosing the cause of your illness or symptoms. 

It can indicate which systems will be overburdened for example the lymphatic system or the venous (blood) system.  It indicates how much energy is available for repair and maintenance of your body.  The parameters of your energy levels are set a birth.  A knowledge of your constitutional make-up can profoundly affect your self-understanding and self-expectations and therefore positively impact on your experience of health.

Iridology sessions are 30 or 60 minutes combined session with iridology and herbal or nutritional medicine or spirit alchemy are 60 or 90 minutes.

Pathology Testing (allergies, heavy metals, irritable bowel, leaky gut, hormones and more)

For clarity on complicated digestive and allergic illness I use a range of pathology tests including blood tests, stool analysis, liver detoxification testing, urine and hormone saliva tests.  I integrate these results into a whole being understanding of your state of health and work to heal the deepest level of disharmony. 

I use a 60 minute diagnostic session to establish the most appropriate testing to be carried out and once the test results another 60 minute session is required. Long-term follow up may be required and the healing modalities used can be adapted to your specific needs.
