Express Consultations
Express Consults are short 15 minute consultations for current Holistia clients designed to help you with short term symptom management of acute symptoms such as those from colds, sore throats, stomach upsets or those horrid daycare bugs.
When are they available?
In clinic Thursdays, Friday afternoons, every second Saturday morning. Phone/online express consultations are also available with more flexibility, please email reception@holistia.com.au to discuss a suitable time.
Why would I choose this?
I have found that many people feel confused when at the chemist or health food stores trying to decide what to buy to help when they feel unwell. This takes the guesswork out of it – you will be provided with a custom prescription to address your specific symptoms and help support your body in healing.
How does it work?
If you wake up in the morning feeling like you have a sniffle or a sore throat, or if the kids have been hit by the dreaded daycare bug, give us a call on 9293 2999 and book straight in for an in clinic appointment! Please note these appointments are not available via the online booking form. If you wish to remain at home to prevent spreading illness, please email the address provided above.
When you arrive for your appointment you’ll be asked to fill in a brief form (this is important so that I can ensure anything prescribed does not interact with anything you’re currently taking), we will have a quick chat to clarify your symptoms.
You’ll be provided with a short term (up to 1 week) prescription which may include nutritional supplements, custom herbal medicines or homeopathics aimed at helping your specific symptoms. Custom herbal medicines and some homeopathics will be made up while you wait. For phone consultations, these will be prepared and you will be advised when available for collection.
If after 1 week symptoms have not resolved, it is recommended you book back in for a follow up so that I can re-assess and provide a new prescription or make other recommendations/referrals.
Please note that these appointments are not for chronic or long term health issues or new clients. If you require support for chronic symptoms or are a new client, please book in a full Naturopathic consultation.
Cost: $35 consultation fee + cost of medicines prescribed.
