The Consultation Process

From first call to follow-up

Consultations run from the Ananda Clinic on Hadlow Road, Tonbridge, or by Zoom to fit your schedule.

I start with a free discovery call, a proper look at your history, a plan built around your life,  then ongoing support to keep it on track with one of my nutritional packages.

Initial Face to Face Consultation

During our Initial face to face consultation, we will take a closer look at your symptoms and health goals and work together to design a personalised nutritional plan which can fit into your everyday life. This may also include some functional testing and supplement suggestions.

Follow Up Consultation

After 6 weeks we will have a face to face Follow Up Consultation (30 – 50 minutes) to explore your progress, discuss any test results and make further adjustments as required and set a date for the next 30-50 minute Follow Up Consultation.

Questionnaire & Food Diary

If we decide to work together,I will then send a comprehensive health questionnaire and a three day food diary which will need to be returned before we meet. This will allow me to map and analyse your history and start to explore your personal health journey which may have contributed towards your current symptoms.

Your Personalised Plan

Following the consultation, you will receive a Personalised Nutritional Plan detailing nutritional and supplemental support for the following 6 weeks. During the six weeks I will check in to see how things are going and also offer email support to answer any other questions you may have.
