What can I expect in a naturopathy consult?
On your first visit, a comprehensive health assessment is performed exploring all of your body systems functioning, personal health history, family history, dietary assessment and lifestyle habits.
Naturopathic consultations differ from orthodox medical appointments, as they are longer in duration and allow time for a full health assessment. The goal of your initial consultation is to find out as much information about your health so a naturopathic care plan can be tailored individual to your health needs.
Naturopathic assessment will be performed to determine your nutritional status, health, vitality and underlying constitutional factors which affect your overall health and wellbeing. These tests may include a zinc taste test, nail and tongue analysis, iridology, blood pressure, and more.
Additional functional pathology testing may also be recommended (at extra cost).
