Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to your questions about naturopathy.

Can naturopathy work alongside my current medical treatments?

Yes, naturopathy can complement conventional medical treatments.

We believe in a collaborative approach and often work in conjunction with other healthcare providers, including GPs and specialists, to ensure that all aspects of your health are supported safely and effectively.

How often should I come for follow-up appointments?

After your initial consultation, follow-up appointments are typically recommended every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on the nature of your health concerns and your progress.

As your condition improves, the frequency of visits may decrease to maintenance appointments every few months.

How does naturopathy differ from conventional medicine?

Unlike conventional medicine, which primarily focuses on symptom management, naturopathy takes a holistic approach by identifying and addressing the root cause of your health concerns. By assessing your body systems, lifestyle, nutrition, and emotional well-being, I create a comprehensive, personalised treatment plan to support your long-term health goals.

What should I bring to my initial appointment?

Please bring any recent pathology results, medical notes, or investigations you’ve previously had with other practitioners. These will help me better understand your health as a whole, and allow me to develop a more accurate and effective treatment plan.

What is naturopathy and how can it help me?

Naturopathy is a holistic approach to health that supports the body's natural ability to heal. It combines evidence-based natural therapies, including herbal medicine, nutritional medicine, and lifestyle recommendations, to address the root causes of health concerns. With a strong focus on prevention and personalised care, naturopathy emphasises non-invasive, natural treatments to promote long-term health.
Naturopathy entails a whole-person approach, which considers physical, emotional, and environmental factors to create balanced, sustainable treatment plans tailored to each patients individual needs.
