Napiers - Herb and Plant Remidies

Helen Gestwicki is now offering Nutritional Therapy at both our Bristo Place and Hamilton Place branches from mid-September. Helen has been with Napiers for over 10 years, 5 of which have been as a practitioner in our clinics.

Nutritional Therapy uses a combination of diet, naturopathic techniques and appropriate food supplements to support the body and help it repair and maintain itself properly. The focus is on developing a sensible and sustainable eating plan based on a nourishing wholefood diet together with a lifestyle that balances work, relaxation and pleasure.

Laboratory testing is also available including hair mineral analysis, homocysteine, food intolerance testing and many more. Please enquire for details.

Initial consultations last for one hour and cost £60, with regular follow up appointments of 30 minutes costing £35. Helen is available on Tuesday afternoons at our Hamilton Place clinic, and Thursday mornings at Bristo Place. Wendy Rodgers also offers Nutritional Therapy at Bristo Place on Wednesday mornings.
