The initial consultation will take approximately one hour. I will ask you to complete a fair amount of paperwork prior to, or upon arrival at the office. I will review medical and personal history including prior treatments, your health status, your experiences with alternative wellness and spiritual practices, and general information about you.
I will recommend treatments based on your individual needs, including a healthy diet and nutrition, daily routine, exercise program, preventative measures, and supplemental herbs. To make a recommendation, I assess each patient’s pulse, mind-body type, chemical balances and imbalances, and wellness goals.
My primary approach to your health is wellness through Ayurveda along with consideration of allopathic (Western Medicine) approaches to optimize your health. During the initial consultation the Ayurvedic evaluation and wellness plan will typically require a full hour. There generally will not be sufficient time for allopathic evaluation during the first visit, although all factors will be considered.
