Regarding weight management, many clients are using weight loss medications, therefore optimising the client's diet is especially important to minimise nutrient deficiencies that may occur. I also help clients understand their conventional and functional laboratory test results. Treatment plans are based on a client's extensive health history which I take in the Initial (First) appointment (including medical history, family history, diet, lifestyle, medications, supplements, conventional & functional pathology test results).

I also offer FREE email support in between consults for essential treatment plan or consult queries. I may recommend additional pathology laboratory testing (Conventional &/or Functional- Gut Microbiome, Genetics, hair tissue mineral analysis (HTMA) or sensitivities) to gather other health information. I may recommend supplements for extra health support (optional extra costs for supplements & functional lab tests). Therefore, for New Clients: 1. Book an INITIAL (First) consult (75 min or 90 mins) or COACH BUNDLE depending on individual circumstances. Or book a Discovery call to discuss which consult session is best for your circumstances. 2. First consult session: I will take a detailed health history and discuss relevant pathology test results with you, your health goals, provide education & strategies for your personal holistic nutrition and lifestyle treatment plan, answer any questions you have, and provide you a completed treatment plan the same day or the next business day. 3.
