Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What can I expect during my first consultation?

A: Your initial consultation includes an in-depth review of your medical history, current symptoms, lifestyle patterns, and any existing lab results.

Q: How is my progress monitored?

A: Progress is tracked through a combination of symptom mapping and objective health markers like blood tests and functional assessments. Structured follow-up visits are used to refine your protocol so it remains realistic, effective, and sustainable for your daily life.
