Dealing with Diabetes
Diabetes, Pre Diabetes and Insulin Resistance are all challenges with regard to the regulation of your blood sugar and insulin levels. Most people diagnosed with a blood sugar “diabetes” problem are offered medication and supportive dietary and lifestyle advice. If these strategies are not working for you, if you wish to complement your current medical program, or if you prefer a more holistic solution, I can support your decision.
There are supportive herbal strategies, lifestyle and nutritional plans that can work to help you manage your blood sugar levels. Simply put, if you are prepared to work toward your goal of blood sugar and insulin management, I can help you. I will need to assess your current strategy or program to understand how I can contribute.
The Holistic Approach
Evaluate your personal situation, based on your medical history, age, gender, weight, dietary habits, sleep and exercise habits, essentially evaluating your current situation with no judgement.
Provide herbs to manage your insulin and blood sugar levels, whether you are taking medication or not. If you are taking medication, the herbs will support your progress and you may be able to reduce your drugs over time, possibly eliminate them [with your doctor’s support].
Adjust your diet and nutritional strategy, working with strategies that may include interval fasting and adjusting carbohydrate intake, all whilst ensuring a proper intake of good fats, proteins and macronutrients.
Suggest medicinal foods that will support your health.
Suggest supplements if necessary to support your changing situation.
Ensure that you are getting enough sleep and appropriate exercise and if necessary suggest strategies or provide herbs or supplements to improve your sleep quality and exercise recovery.
Assist you in providing strategies and techniques to minimise or reduce stresses in your life.
Teach self-hypnosis if you need psychological support to make the changes necessary or wish to explore the use of hypnosis to adjust physiological parameters.
It is a holistic multi-disciplinary approach, based on my clinical experience and background in biological science, traditional herbal medicine and clinical hypnotherapy. I want to work with you in a way that gets you maximum benefit and results in a timely manner. Managing your diabetes or pre diabetes can improve your health and wellbeing now and protect you against future complications.
As your program may run over a several months after your first consultation, I typically schedule follow up sessions 2, 4 or 6 weeks apart, as we adjust the program to suit your unique situation. Herbs and supplements are charged separately.
All the best for your healthy future,
