Usually people come to find a way to sort out persistent symptoms. The range of symptoms each person has varies enormously and includes physical and emotional problems. Many of Anne’s clients have tried medical and other therapies before coming to see her. Often people have been taking supplements or herbs but find they are not working for them. Others come as a first option to find out their current state of health and how to improve it.

Anne’s combination of therapies (herbalism, naturopathy, allergy elimination and thetahealing) allows her to find out what is behind the individual’s symptoms, what suits the client in terms of treatment, and how to treat the particular individual. Sometimes it only takes two or three sessions to get rid of even persistent problems. Most people need about six appointments to get to this stage. Some people like to continue for many sessions because they achieve whole new levels of discovery and realise they are making significant changes to so many aspects of their lives.

She has had clients who came to see her because they know they had to do something about their health but were not sure what sort of therapy to try. One such client held a senior position in a multinational engineering company and came to me not because he believed in Anne’s approach to health, but just because he was so desperate for help. He was an experienced public speaker, enjoyed it as part of his work and trained others successfully in it for years but since a bereavement coinciding with a difficult situation at work, he had had severe panic attacks ‘on the podium’ in front of hundreds of peers and senior colleagues. He found himself trying to avoid participating in this side of the business although it was essential to his role. He felt he could not go to anyone at work that could understand, let alone help. With treatment, his life soon started to change radically. For the first time in years, and for the first time at this company, he started to enjoy work and he continues to do so. He says the work has not changed, if anything it is becoming more pressurised and intense, but now he is able to meet the challenge of public speaking again, everything is falling in to place and he is moving from strength to strength. His success has extended to his social life as well.

The severity and profile of symptoms varies from person to person, and so does the effects of each treatment. Some people feel more tired for a day or so after treatments, others are energised. Most can just ‘move on’ straight away. It is always amazing to see what people achieve. Anne can get to the root of people’s troubles with minimal distress and maximum safety and comfort, and helps people find ways treat their issues successfully.

A Naturopath will make a very thorough diagnosis using various different diagnostic tools, which include a very detailed case-taking at the first consultation, examining the body, taking blood-pressure, Iridology, looking at your nails & tongue, examination of ears if relevant, and muscle-testing. The therapist will build up a unique picture of the problems you have and how you have arrived at the symptoms you are presenting with.

They would then recommend a treatment-plan, which might be to refer you to e.g. an acupuncturist or osteopath, or might include detoxification (e.g. colon cleansing), nutritional advice, supplements, life-style advice, reflexology, homeopathy, herbs, NAET (allergy treatment), Indian Head massage, hopi ear-candling, Auricular Therapy, Cupping, or Bach Flower Remedies, depending on what has been found.

The type of treatment will vary according to you – what the condition is, and also what you, the patient, can realistically take on board.
