Statement of Acknowledgement and Informed consent to Examination and compilation of protocol.
This form must be signed before our consultation can commence.
Nutritional Therapy uses a science based approach towards the promotion of optimum wellbeing, health and peak performance. Nutritional therapists work with everyone, from healthy individuals to prevent disease or improve their diet and wellbeing, or with an individual who has health concerns to minimise their symptoms and to try uncover any contributing factors.
Naturopathy and Naturopathic nutrition assess the whole person, assessing mental, emotional and physical health. During your visit, a thorough health history will be taken and if needed examination such as hip to waist measurements (No clothes need to be removed), blood pressure monitored, weight measured could be taken, and specific lab diagnostic tests will be required by other health care practitioners you have/are seeing or through private testing laboratories.
