| The
Whole Picture The
holistic approach to medicine takes a wider view of illness, the causes of disease
and the ways in which people express their illness individually. "Those
who merely study and treat the effects of disease are like those who imagine they
can drive away the winter by brushing the snow from the door. It is not the snow
that causes winter, but the winter that causes the snow." Paracelsus What
can I expect from the consultation? The
first consultation usually takes up to an hour, as it's necessary to get a full
picture of the person's background as well as the specific menopausal symptoms,
both emotional and physical. Follow-ups only take about half an hour and any other
questions can be dealt with on e-mail. What
changes can I expect? Initially
there might be some release in the form of a discharge, for example perspiration.
This is simply the body's way of eliminating toxins. You might also find old symptoms
passing through fleetingly and a lifting in your general energy. Homeopathy
and Herbs As
well as nutritional advice, suggestions on supplements and life-style in general
there are different herbal tinctures from Europe and China that can help with
regulating the hormones and homeopathic remedies which help on the emotional and
physical level.
