During the initial one-hour consultation I will help you to identify what factors have lead to your present disorder and work with you to treat not only the symptoms but also the cause.
Post Treatment discussion
We then discuss the number and frequency of visits. We will then go on to discuss other things you can do to assist your treatment outcomes. (e.g. I may direct you to website links, food, life style changes, relaxation techniques, useful stretches, yoga classes etc.); where advantageous referrals to other health practitioners or a medical doctor may be given.
I am a listed practitioner for all major Australian health funds.

The number and frequency of treatments will depend on several factors: how long you have had your present complaint, your age, constitution, and your desired health out comes. As a general rule acute problems are resolved more quickly, while the longer you have had the problem and the older you are the longer time of treatment required.
