Welcome to my Naturopathic Practice
"A cure of the part should not be attempted without treatment of the whole.
No attempt should be made to cure the body without the soul and,
if the head and body are to be healthy, you must begin curing the mind...
for this is the great error of our day in the treatment of the human body,
the physicians first separate the soul from the body."
Plato, 5th Century BC
My name is Roberta Stimson and I believe wholeheartedly in the approach to treatment which views physical or emotional symptoms as biofeedback devices that act as a warning that something underlying is beginning to malfunction.
The common approach of surpressing symptoms such as pain, inflammation, itch, swelling, and emotional distress with medication or surgery is, I believe, as unacceptable as removing an annoying flashing light on your dashboard! Eventually the true nature of the problem must be addressed.
I begin by assessing each individual’s priority issue, of which there can only be one at a time then carry on testing and treating in a holistic manner until each priority has been cleared and balanced. I don't diagnose disease but rather I assess the patient always aware that we are as unique as the proverbial snowflake.
It can be seen as peeling off layers of disguise until we reveal the real authentic you, fresh and clear and open to complete healing from the inside-out.
The delicate instrument, the beautiful piece of machinery that is you in your entirety, needs to be supported, cleaned, nourished, cared for, finely tuned and appreciated.
This process can begin at any age; although the younger the start, the more likely we live a life of awareness of and confidence in our own magnificent ability to self-heal. This is why it's wonderful to see babies and children while they’re relatively pure and super-responsive to natural energetic medicines and meridian therapies, so much so that acute symptoms can be removed almost instantaneously in some cases.
I have had more than 20 years of experience helping people of all ages who have such conditions as: M.E., Chronic Fatigue, Depression, Anxiety, Migraine, Fibromyalgia, Insomnia, Chronic Pain, Back Pain, Joint stiffness, Urinary-Bladder issues, IBS, Crohn's Disease, Constipation, other Bowel Disorders, Candida & Chronic Thrush, Acne, Skin, Hair & Nail problems, Eczema, Hypoglycaemia, PCOS, Type II Diabetes, Hormone Imbalances,Thyroid imbalances, Digestive Disorders, Poor Absorption, Hiatus Hernia, mysterious Weight fluctuations, Osteo-arthritis, Rheumatism.
Please note that I do not advocate contradicting the instructions of your GP or medical specialist, or the ceasing of prescribed medication. Medical testing and treatment, acute and chronic, must be discussed with your doctor and carried out in accordance with what you both agree is correct for you.
Through preventative measures and holistic support many auto-immune and other types of disorders can be managed so that symptoms don't stop people enjoying good overall health and well-being.
