Baby & Children’s Naturopathic Consultations

Your child’s first consultation will run for approximately 1 hour and will cover the following areas:

  • Present health concerns, including the onset and nature of symptoms, relevant medical history, birth history, and family health history.

  • Current dietary assessment (including breastfeeding/formula, solids introduction, or established eating patterns depending on age).

  • Assessment and analysis of any recent pathology or functional testing (if available).

  • Lifestyle assessment, including sleep patterns, home routine, activity levels, and emotional wellbeing.

  • Specific questions relating to associated body systems such as immunity, digestion, skin, and nervous system.

  • A brief physical assessment that may include iris analysis and examination of the tongue and fingernails.

Parents will be provided with an understanding of how their child’s symptoms have developed and what underlying factors may be contributing. Together, we will create a therapeutic plan tailored to your child’s unique needs. This plan may include:

  • Dietary and nutritional advice appropriate for their age and stage of development.

  • Lifestyle suggestions to support balance, healthy routines, and emotional resilience.

  • Herbal medicine, vitamin, and mineral supplements where appropriate to gently support the body’s natural healing processes.

The aim of this consultation is to provide relief from symptoms while also addressing the root causes to support your child’s long-term health and wellbeing. Ultimately, our goal is to restore balance and harmony to body and mind, giving your child the best possible foundation for healthy growth and development.

LATENESS & CANCELLATION POLICY
Please be aware that your late arrival may result in a reduction of consultation time as a courtesy to our next guest.

We kindly ask our clients to give a minimum of 24 hours’ notice for cancellations. Cancellations less than 24 hours notice will attract a charge of 50% of the full price and for cancellations with less than 12 hours notice and no shows, you will be charged the full price.

The smooth and effective running of this practice also depends upon your courtesy and co-operation regarding attendance and the keeping of appointments. As you can appreciate, it is very important that you allow sufficient notice if you are unable to keep your appointment for any reason. The reason why we have a cancellation fee is because when you book an appointment, that time slot has been set aside for you and only you. It is not always possible to fit another client in at the last moment, and consequently the practice must bear the brunt of that fee. In this matter, we rely upon your courtesy and hope that you let us know in advance if your plans change.

All cancellations and requests to reschedule CANNOT be done through our booking system.

PLEASE CALL OR TEXT 0447366553 TO INFORM US OF ANY CHANGES TO YOUR BOOKING
