A note on treatment.
What’s right for you is decided with you in a consultation, so we don’t publish a treatment list. Some people come for integrative medicine, some for alternative medicine, and some want both. Either way, the plan is shaped with your practitioner after a proper assessment. Not sure where to start? Call 07 4015 3444 or book a free nurse call.
