"NOTHING IS MORE VALUABLE THAN YOUR HEALTH"
One-to-One Consultations
One-to-One Consultations and other Services
Optional "Pre-Assessment" Consultation
If you just wish to discuss your diet and health in general terms, and would like to find out more information before proceeding with a full consultation, then this brief 20-minute "taster" consultation is for you. Please note that within the scope of this short consultation, it will only be possible to provide general dietary recommendations and an overview of the range of diagnostic tests that are available. Should you subsequently decide to go ahead with a full consultation, you will be entitled to a discount.
Initial (Full) Consultation
The first step for a prospective client is to complete and return a detailed health and dietary questionnaire (including a 5-day food diary), in order to provide as much detail as possible about themselves. (However, to you save time, a summarised version of the questionnaire can be downloaded, completed and returned via email - for further information, click here)
The initial Full consultation with Nutricoach lasts approximately 1.5 hours, where you will be provided with an individual Action Plan and Programme suited to your own unique requirements, addressing your main health concerns. This will be based on a detailed assessment of your dietary habits, full medical and family history, and overall lifestyle. No stone will be left unturned. Practical advice will also be given on meal planning, recipe ideas and food shopping. To help save a few trees, your Action Plan, factsheets/handouts and other relevant information, will be provided to you on a personalised CD. Two weeks' telephone and email support is also included, should clients have any queries or problems.
Various measurements will be taken, including weight, body fat & water ratios, visceral fat, muscle mass, bone mineral mass, basal metabolic rate, and blood pressure. Asthmatics, and those with respiratory complaints, will also have their Peak Flow measured.
Where necessary, specific diagnostic tests will be recommended in order to ascertain or confirm certain suspected conditions or nutritional imbalances.
As a souvenir, clients will also receive a complimentary 'Nutricoach' fridge magnet (while stocks last).
Follow-up Consultations
A follow-up consultation (30-45 minutes) will normally be scheduled approximately 4 to 6 weeks after the 1st full consultation, in order to monitor progress, review and adjust your Programme, and address any outstanding issues. Further follow-ups can be scheduled if required.
Total Confidentiality
All consultations, and all information discussed, will be treated in the strictest confidence.
Home Visits
You may wish to have a consultation in the comfort of your own home, so home visits can be arranged - please contact Nutricoach for further information - an additional fee may apply for this service, to cover fuel, travel costs etc.
(For "long-distance" clients, it may be possible to have a pre-assessment consultation via telephone and email.)
Food Shopping Expedition (an additional personal service)
Accompanied by the nutritionist, you will spend an hour in your local major supermarket, where you will be shown examples of the best foods to suit you and your budget, and advised on healthier alternatives to your current favourite foods. Food labelling will also be explained to you. Although strongly recommended, it is not necessary to have a consultation in order to make use of this service. Please contact Nutricoach for further information.
Nutritional Supplements
During the consultation, it is possible that nutritional supplements may be recommended to you. If you would like the nutritionist to order these supplements on your behalf, then they must be paid for in advance.
**Cancellation Policy**
Please note that a minimum of 24 hours' notice must be given if you wish to cancel a consultation. Cancellations made after this period will incur the full cost of the consultation.
