1:1 CONSULTATIONS
Vera’s consultations are based on her unique approach to health combining Naturopathy and Herbal Medicine with Lifestyle Medicine. She is the only certified Lifestyle Medicine practitioner in the UK who integrates Naturopathy and Herbal medicine into her practice.
What happens during your consultation
When booking your initial appointment, you will receive a health questionnaire to be completed ahead of your session.
At your 75-minute initial consultation, we will discuss your symptoms and health needs in depth as well as the key aspects of health including your nutritional habits, digestive health, sleep quality, stress management and movement.
What you will leave with
Following your consultation, you will receive a personalised plan, tailored to your health needs and goals, which includes nutrition, supplements, herbal remedies (can be custom-made if applicable), and self-care tool resources.
For ease, recommended supplements and herbal remedies will be accompanied by a shopping cart link with details for direct purchase.
Functional testing, if applicable, will be organised for you (see below for details).
Email support in between appointments.
How many sessions you will need
Based on your individual needs, we will discuss how many follow-up sessions may be recommended as well as frequency. Lifestyle Medicine is a step by step process working towards an end goal - in order to achieve optimal results, you need to be reviewed and your treatment tweaked accordingly. If you have undergone any tests or been asked to see your GP concerning a health issue, a follow-up would be required in order to discuss the results.
Functional testing
Functional testing sheds light on your individual health status, allowing to make recommendations and design tailored health plans that will bring your wellness into focus. They represent an effective and rewarding way to identify the underlying causes of chronic health issues.

Gut health (including commensal bacteria, inflammation, parasites and yeast)
Cortisol daily profile
Thyroid function
Food intolerances
Nutrition
Genomics
Women’s health check
