My Approach
For me, the mission of any Naturopath is to find the root cause of the many symptoms people present with. Uncovering evidence using investigative techniques that all Naturopaths employ, alongside some possible forensic testing builds a picture of what support you need and so The Naturopathic Detective seemed very apt!
My approach – never to judge, always respect and appreciate the person. Having an inquisitive and analytical nature means being The Naturopathic Detective is easy. Everything should be a journey in life to enjoy and so my aim is to make each persons’ health journey fun and enjoyable.
It’s never about punishing or charging anyone with the crime of not living to their greatest potential, but enabling people to find a way of doing so with the power of Naturopathy.
What is a Naturopath?
Naturopaths work to understand the connectivity between the many and varied symptoms you present with and find the ‘root cause’ of these, whether to do with physical or mental health or a combination of both which is so common to many of us.
Detection comes through building a comprehensive profile of the person using diagnostic and functional tools. Once the cause is established, the Naturopath can employ a range of ‘natural’ modalities in their approach.
My specialism is Nutrition and I particularly favour the functional medicine approach, but I can also employ herbal medicine, homeopathy, Bach flowers, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture in supporting people to achieve and optimes their health.
​
One of the main principles of naturopathy is that everyone is different – genetically, biochemically, structurally and psychologically. As such, we all respond differently to our environment and life’s challenges.
The naturopaths’ approach is therefore tailored to the person, not driven by any specific disease or condition. It promotes and supports the body’s ability to restore, maintain and optimise, restore and maintain our physiological, physical, and mental/emotional health.
Through investigations, we will seek to identify the root causes of your ill health and/ or limitations or barriers in performance and means you have the best opportunity to reach your optimal potential!
