Health Help

I can help you with a range of issues if conventional medicine isn’t working for you – or if you want to minimise the medications you’re taking.

I treat the whole person, not just a specific health “problem”. I believe that humans are organic beings, not machines that break down. As organic systems, it’s been my experience that there’s a lot we can do to improve the system – integrated, holistic solutions that minimise the need to medicate “problems”.

Key health problems I work with include:
