Chinese Elements Methodology

Our practitioners use the traditional Chinese 5 Element system for diagnosis, which associates each symptom with an area of the body being out of balance. Once they have established where the imbalance lies they can advise as to how to use natural ingredients to bring the body back to optimum health. Food can be used to reverse the disease process even in those who are seriously ill.

Food Intolerance Testing and Vitamin and Mineral Analysis

Some of our practitioners have either or additionally trained in food intolerance testing and vitamin and mineral analysis using the very latest technology. Practitioners achieve a Diploma in Allergy Intolerance Therapy qualification which enables them to use an electro dermal machine. The machine measures changes in body resistance and is used to help pinpoint foods or allergens that may be causing health problems. Practitioners are then able to offer advice on dietary changes and supplements, if necessary, which should help recovery.

Supplements

Practitioners often recommend a reputable and ethical company called Cytoplan, whose high quality products are manufactured in a food state form. The company uses organic ingredients wherever possible, but always nutrients in an organic form, which means they come complete with natural food carriers to ensure absorption and utilisation in the body. They are also an ethical company who make regular donations of supplements to charities and those in need. Their products are conceived by common sense, grounded in science and proven with results.

Insurance

All practitioners are responsible for providing their own professional liability and indemnity insurance.
