During your first consultation, which is likely to take up to an hour and a half, I will ask you to tell me all about yourself, not only about your symptoms and how you experience them, but about what it is that makes you the individual you are. This is because the remedy that I prescribe will reflect all of you – not just your physical symptoms, but your mental and emotional responses too.

Any information you can supply about your past medical history, and that of your family, will also be useful in assessing your case. Please tell me about any drugs or supplements which have been prescribed to you by your doctor, or that you take regularly. You should not discontinue any prescribed medication without first consulting your doctor.
