Will you be able to diagnose a health condition?

Health Coaches are not permitted to diagnose or claim to treat medical conditions and my recommendations are not a substitute for professional medical advice and treatment. However, I will help you to fully understand your own health and the root causes of any health condition(s) diagnosed by a qualified health professional. I will empower you to become an expert in your own health and any diagnosed condition(s).

Will you be able to treat/cure my condition?

It is not within my scope to treat/cure health conditions but together we can co-create a health improvement plan, setting health and wellness goals together. I will support you to self-manage your symptoms through healthy lifestyle.

Do you provide detailed dietary advice and meal-plans?

I will provide basic guidance on nutrition in line with your health goals and recipe ideas when appropriate. Action plans will include links to other health resources to help you make informed decisions.

Will you prescribe therapeutic protocols/treatments or nutritional supplements such as vitamins, minerals, herbs or other nutraceuticals?

Although I will not prescribe any of the above, I will provide appropriate educational resources relevant to your health challenge(s) and prompt you to research the interventions related to your health condition(s). If necessary, I will refer you to other health professionals providing these services.

Can you order and interpret diagnostic tests such as blood, urine or saliva?

This is not something I provide but I can guide you to resources related to your health condition(s) and refer you to professionals qualified in diagnostic testing.

If I buy a package, do I have to have sessions weekly?

I find that meeting weekly gives you the support and motivation needed to implement the changes we have identified on the action plan and notice the changes in your health, although sometimes a longer period in between sessions is required to adopt a new habit and this can be discussed.

Where are one-to-one meetings held?

I prefer to meet in person at my address however, meetings can be held over zoom or in special circumstances it can be arranged for me to come to your home or place of work (please note this will incur an additional fee).

How long does each coaching session last?

The initial health consultation will last approximately 90 minutes, and each session thereafter will last between 30 - 60 minutes depending on what we are focusing on.
