Naturopathy, also known as Nature Cure, is an approach to wellness based upon the principle that the body has the inherent ability to heal itself. It emphasises the prevention and treatment of disease and the attainment and maintenance of the best possible state of health for each of us.
The methods used are suitable for both acute and chronic conditions. Physically these can range from colds, flu and ear infections through to arthritis, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, infertility and IBS; but there are so many other factors to consider and to be taken into account, which include:
- Your lifestyle
- Your genetic predispositions
- Your general emotional state
- Stress levels
- Your mental attitude
- What sex you are
- Your age/lifestage
- Your home environment
- Your diet
- Your daily life/work
In the majority of cases, Jennifer finds it is not enough just to treat the physical complaints. This means that the emphasis is to find the cause(s) and contributing factors of poor health by considering the patient as a totality of body, mind, emotions and spirit.
And while natural remedies are used to support the body’s own healing abilities, treatment is also about counselling, educating and empowering individuals to make lifestyle changes to attain and maintain the best possible health.
And because clients are taught to stay well, their future need for medical drugs and procedures is reduced.
However, you do not need to be unwell to see a naturopath. Because it is a wellness focussed practise, many clients, recognising the benefits of living well and being well, visit regularly to either undergo individualised cleansing programmes and/or to revamp their diets and supplemental regimes.
Intuitive Naturopathy
Intuitive naturopathy goes beyond the obvious complaints Whether they are physical or emotional, Jennifer is also able to ‘see’ aspects pertaining to the problems that may not even be obvious to the client, but which are very relevant to that clients overall health and wellbeing.
Using a highly developed sense of intuition, she is able to look into the body and surrounding energy fields, evaluating the individual on energetic levels. We cannot be well on any level unless all the aspects of who we are, are taken into account.
How Jennifer works…
Consultations are friendly and unhurried, and you can be assured of absolute confidentiality.
A visit to the clinic will take around one hour for the first appointment, during which time a full case history is taken, and the irises of your eyes, (iridology), fingernails and tongue will be examined. Your concerns will be fully discussed, and a treatment programme will be tailored specifically to your needs. Follow-up consultations usually only require ½ an hour. During the case-taking there will be some questions that may appear very unusual – don’t worry – it’s quite normal in this line of work and is all part of the information gathering about you.
For clients living outside of Hong Kong, the consultations take place by Skype or telephone. The time taken is the same as if you were in clinic with Jennifer. These distance consultations work very well and with follow up calls and internet support, clients make wonderful progress; feel and are truly supported.
