Initial Consultation

• Your first consultation will last approximately one hour and will include the following:

• A questionnaire and 3-day food diary to complete, which is sent to you prior to our appointment. Bringing this diary helps you to get the most value out of the consultation. This covers any of your concerns, your medical history, diet and lifestyle and by questioning further enables a full assessment of your health.

• Next, I will explain how certain factors in your diet or lifestyle may be impacting on your health and how they might be improved.

• Recommendations on how you might implement changes to your diet and lifestyle. This is more of a joint discussion, so we can work out what will and won’t work for you. It is crucial that advice given is ‘workable’ if improvements are to be achieved.

• If appropriate, suggestions for a supplementation programme or consideration of functional tests may be discussed.

Follow-Up Consultations

A follow-up is usually arranged for 2-4 weeks after the initial consultation and lasts approximately 45 minutes. This session aims to discuss and monitor your progress, including any test results which may have been conducted. Adjustments can then be made where necessary in order to ‘fine tune’ your nutritional and lifestyle programme for maximum benefit.

The number of follow-up consultations required varies depending on the health condition. For advice on general diet improvement, only 1-2 consultations are needed. However, more troublesome health concerns such as digestive problems, arthritis, hormonal issues etc may require 2-4 consultations or more. Ultimately, you can decide how much help you need. If longer term support is required for chronic health problems or an ongoing weight loss programme, fees can be discussed accordingly.
