What’s Involved In A Consultation?

We take a vast scientific and nutritional knowledge base and pour it into real-world outcomes for each of our diverse clients.

  • You complete an online health history questionnaire and have an initial consult

  • Together we explore your health goals, presenting symptoms digestive health, hormone health, previous medical history, medications & nutritional supplements, diet & lifestyle factors to gain an understanding of where your health is at.

  • We collaboratively put together a Treatment Plan and discuss any pathology testing or functional testing, to delve deeper, into what’s really going on.

  • Follow up appointments allow us to review any testing that has been ordered, as well as simple changes can be made to your existing treatment plan. They are generally 3-4 weeks after your initial consultation.

  • We work together, following and tweaking the plan, returning periodically to measure progress.

“Would highly recommend her if you're wanting to restart your gut health.”

I have been seeing Steph for a few months now and she has really helped me kick start my gut health. When I first saw Steph I had Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Unlcerative Colitis and had been suffering from this for 5-6 months. I had tried numerous different antibiotics but nothing seemed to be working. Since seeing Steph I have had no symptoms of reactions and have lost weight in the process. Would highly recommend her if you're wanting to restart your gut health.
