Often I get inquiries from new clients asking me ‘do you understand and have you treated xyz condition?’ Firstly, holistic nutrition means I look at the whole picture and I see you as an individual too. There is no generic solution to a particular complaint – trust me, you’d know about it if there was!
I do understand though that new clients may want to get a feel for the types of people I have worked with so here’s a summary of some of the more unusual cases.
