- A custom herb blend uniquely suited to your health and wellness needs costs $40
- Each custom herb blend lasts about 3 weeks
- With most health needs we schedule a follow-up appointment at the 2-3 week point. At that time we will check-in to see how things are going and what needs adjusted in the formula. We will continue to discuss ways to address your unique health needs through diet, sleep tips, energy techniques, daily movement, and how to build these healthy habits into your daily rhythm. Refills are done at 3 weeks. And follow-ups are recommended every 3 or 6 weeks to be sure we are staying on track and that the herbs are contineing to meet your needs as your body shifts and heals.
When you go to the appointment page on this website and click on the Schedule Now! button at the bottom, you'll be taken to our scheduler page where you'll choose the type of appointment you'd like and the date and time that works best for you. When you've completed the appointment details, you'll receive a confirmation email, and then another email a few minutes later with an intake form. You can fill it out and send it online, or print it and fill it out on paper and bring it with you, or if you don't get a chance to do this, you can take a few minutes when you arrive to fill out a paper form in the office. (During the COVID-19 pandemic, all visits will be held via Zoom. See more details on the appointment page.)
When you arrive, you'll be offered a cup of tea and a chance to go to the bathroom before we sit down in my office. I will go through a comprehensive intake with you and we'll have an in-depth discussion of your health issues to determine which areas of your life and health you most need support with. This is quite a different experience than the typical rushed doctor's visit, where you oftentimes don't have a chance to get your breath and remember all the issues you want to address.
When our appointment is finished, my assistant will create the custom herb blend that I've formulated for you. This takes about 10 minutes after your appointment time ends, and my assistant will go over how to take your herbs and any questions that you have. A custom herbal blend that lasts 3 weeks costs $40. (During COVID we will choose a time for you to pick-up the herbs at a later time or ship them to you!)
After you've taken your formula for three weeks, we would like to see you back for a follow-up. You might be experiencing the benefits of the herbs to the degree that you feel the formula is a good fit for you. Or you might feel the need to have your formula tweaked. Customizing to your unique needs is a bit like having a tailor that works to help your body feel its best. After this first follow-up you can then make refills or follow-ups based on your need. I like to see my clients every 2-3 monthes for best results! In between those times you can simply schedule a refill pick-up.
Taking herbal products is a process that helps your body heal in a fundamental way. Over time your custom herbal blend will improve not just your initial health concerns but it may also shift your mind and body in ways that you might not have anticipated. Herbs are a way of developing a new relationship with your mind, body and spirit that can lead to profound changes for you.
I wish you all the best in your healing journey!
