Aftercare

You will receive a full report as a result of our testing of your hair sample. All reports are individually prepared and list our findings as well as recommendations and prescription. 

Please let us know on your patient form if you would like your report emailed to you, posted or in more urgent cases telephoned through to you. Make sure we have the best contact details for you for all options.

Your report will include a prescription with our recommended remedies or treatments. Please read your prescription carefully. Notice if there are any reductions or changes in dosage after a certain period. We suggest you write the doses in your diary as it can be quite a job to make sure doses are followed! Whenever we can, we recommend products you should be able to buy in your local health food shop. However, some patients show up to needing special formulas that you have to send away for. In such cases, we often use the following suppliers:
Metabolics tel. 01380 812799 or www.metabolics.com
Natural Medicine Products tel. 01363 860232

It is important to get the exact products from the named suppliers as we have specifically tested these for effectiveness and tolerance.

Feedback
We really like feedback, so do feel free to email or ring us during your treatment plan or at the end of your prescription to let us know how it is going. We really like to know when things improve for you, it’s what our job is all about.
 

General advice
We recommend you eat a healthy diet and stick to regular meal times.
Drink plenty of water during the day. Recommended daily intake is 1-2 liters.
Generally, most supplements are taken with your meals.
However, homeopathic remedies are taken at least 15 minutes away from food or drink.

Advice in connection with treatment of parasites: When you are on any anti-parasite remedies, make sure to take the formulas away from food, i.e. between meals. If a liquid formula, add it to a little juice or water. Avoid dairy products while on any anti-parasite formulas.

Sometimes when taking herbal formulas, you may feel a little fluey or tired as your body is detoxing and excreeding waste products. This is quite normal and it often helps drinking plenty of fluids.

Clearly if you have any known medical contraindications to taking the supplements or any unusual or longer-lasting symtoms, we would advise you to discuss your best options or any risks with your GP.
