Let’s address the root cause of your condition, with no stone left unturned
BOOK IN WITH ME IF YOU…
Are ready to identify the cause of your health condition with vigorous testing and interpretation
Need an experienced practitioner who understands and specialises in complex skin conditions and can integrate treatment alongside your corneotherapist
Have tried and tested multiple treatments with rosacea, peri-oral dermatitis, eczema, hives and psoriasis with little to no long-term change
Suffer from frequent bouts of skin infections such as Staphylococcus Aureus or Fungal Overgrowth and need long-term interventions to address infection and reduce antibiotic resistance
Are seeking support to understand your hormonal status and require a customised treatment protocol for fertility, PCOS or amenorrhea
I can help you with:
-
Having both personal & clinical experience with Rosacea & Peri-oral dermatitis, I understand the importance of addressing the many facets of gut, immunity, skin barrier function, neurological function, nervous system function and so much more that can drive this persistent condition.
-
Skin Infections can be pretty stubborn and often act as a chameleon in the form of a boil, nasal sores or even mimic acne. Conventional treatment often doesn’t provide long-term relief and may result in constant re-infection.As your practitioner, we’ll fill the missing pieces of the puzzle and work through improving your skin barrier function, optimising your immune and lymphatic system and reduce antimicrobial resistance so you can respond to treatment and get on top of your infections, once and for all.
-
Having both personal experience & clinical experience helping many, I understand the impact on quality of life Psoriasis can have and the little conventional treatments available for long-term change. My role as your practitioner, is to identify the causes of immune-dysfunction driving the auto-immunity, whilst implementing a specific treatment protocol to provide the skin the ingredients it needs to repair.
-
Knowledge is power when it comes to actively being involved in your hormone health and having your hormones accurately tested and assessed is the key to unlocking the next steps you need to take. Your menstrual cycle is basically your report card for the month. The solution to regain control of your hormones is in understanding the connection between the signs/symptoms your cycle is showing us and your blood work. This can include working with PCOS, amenorrhea, endometriosis and fertility
How it works
-
In your discovery call, you’ll have the pleasure of meeting with our lovely Patient Advocate, Laura on Zoom.
Your discovery call gives you the chance to outline your health history including details of the onset of your condition, the tried and tested treatments and clarification of your health goals. There are clues in the timeline of your health history and the signs/symptoms your body is showing you.
Laura will be able to help you understand the potential drivers of your condition and clarify the gaps that need to be filled to find you the long term solution.
At the end of your call, Laura will match you with the best Orenda Practitioner for you, and get you ready for your Initial Consultation.
-
In your Initial Consultation, your assigned practitioner will spend 60-90 minutes with you asking an extensive list of questions to understand your medical history and how this can be impacting your health now.
Our goal of this consultation is to identify the potential systems of weakness and help you to connect the dots as to the drivers of your presenting condition.
You’ll leave your consultation with a customised prescription, referrals for further testing/investigations and a tailored plan regarding your diet and lifestyle modifications.
Don’t stress about getting any testing done before your consultation; your practitioner needs to get to know you and the function of each of your systems in order to determine where to begin with testing.
If the purpose of your consultation is for treating acne, you might like to start with our Initial Consultation & Clear Skin Blueprint - so you can get started on the science backed and clinically proven method to clear your skin once and for all, from today!
-
When we’re working with our clients, we want long term lasting change for them. This is why it’s so important that we work with you every 4-8 weeks to offer as much ongoing support as we can to help you achieve your goals.
Within a 4-8 week period after your initial consultation, your practitioner will assess your progress with your initial treatment plan including your dietary changes, lifestyle modifications and assessment of any pathology completed.
As your practitioner interprets your test results with you and reviews your progress, you’ll develop a deeper understanding of how your nutritional status, hormone balance, liver function, stress response, gut microbiome and more may be significantly impacting your health condition.
Working closely with your practitioner means you have the guided support with each consultation to tweak your customised protocol to continuously address the areas of imbalance, whilst being able to work on other concerns which may occur during this period of time.
