The modalities I use are: • Iridology - a diagnostic tool to help assess overall health and facilitate other forms of diagnosis. Patterns in the iris can reveal your body’s strengths and weaknesses and inherited constitutions. It can aid in the formulation of your Naturopathic treatment plan as well as preventative natural health care. • Herbal Medicine - the oldest and still the most widely used system of medicine in the world today. It is used in all societies and is common to all cultures. Using plants as medicine provides significant advantages for treating many conditions. The therapeutic activity of a plant is due to its complex chemical nature with different parts of the plant providing certain therapeutic effects. While Naturopathy maintains it traditional roots, modern day standards ensure that the herbs are well researched and tested. • Nutrition - Stress, medications, environmental toxins, eating habits and poor soil quality can all contribute to reduced nutrient status and therefore, promote a state of inbalance and dis-ease. In order to correct these deficiencies, the use of nutritional supplements or food therapy may be employed. • Homeopathy is a system of medicine which involves treating the individual with highly diluted substances, with the aim of triggering the body’s natural system of healing. It is based on the principle that you can treat ‘like with like’, that is, a substance which causes symptoms when taken in large doses, can be used in small amounts to treat those same symptoms. • Flower essences gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions, such as, fear, worry, hatred and indecision which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole. The Bach Flower Remedies allow peace and happiness to return to so that the body is free to heal itself. • Massage therapy is beneficial for reducing both mental and physical tension, inducing relaxation and relieving pain and stiffness in the body. Other benefits include increased circulation, improved immunity and detoxification. • Bodywork is deep conscious communication between bodies. It’s purpose is to connect a body to it’s instinct to heal. Physical signs and symptoms occur when the body is holding stuff that it hasn’t been able to metabolise yet. • Lifestyle management and counselling- the mind plays a critical role in health and illness and disturbances in the spirit permeate the individual and can manifest physically.
