What to expect

Lifestyle medicine is fundamentally about taking the evidence that exists in the scientific literature and using it to make changes to the way you live to improve your health and wellbeing now and for the future.

We will not be prescribing medications, but will happily write to your GP, if and when it is needed, to keep them in the loop about changes we are making especially if (as is often the case) you are getting side effects from your medications as your condition improves and they need tapering down or stopping.

Prior to your first paid appointment we will ask you to complete some questionnaires about your current health status, a food diary and some other information that is useful in order for us to create a detailed picture of your health.  We know it is a lot of homework!

But please do fill in these preliminary questionnaires and submit them at least a couple of days ahead of the appointment so we can review these in advance and utilise your appointment time optimally.

We suggest after your free discovery consultation that you book one of our packages if  they address your primary aim, or a stand alone one hour appointment to allow us to create a more detailed picture and plan for the coming weeks.  

In order to sustain the momentum of lifestyle change we recommend a session every week at first.  This is a fantastic period to really focus your efforts and gain some great habits and confidence.  Thereafter you can decide how much support you feel you need.
