About me
Hello all.
My name is Luna Marques, I am from Portugal and I am a qualified Naturopath/Herbalist and Massage therapist living in Dorking.
I moved to the UK in 2017, since then, I have worked as a Holistic therapist on a self-employment basis in the UK.
At the moment, I am open to give Herbalism and Astrology (for psychological/emotional healing purposes) consultations.
However, I can also offer Herbalism or Naturopathy consultations without Astrology.
Herbal and Astrology consultations
My consultations will be based on Herbal therapy and Psychological astrology.
During the appointment I will ask questions related to the person’s physical condition, emotional condition, lifestyle habits, diet, routines, familiar and medical history. After, I will evaluate the medical exams of the patient (if available and necessary).
Finally, I will recommend herbs, nutritional recommendations and supplements that could support the patient's health.
Considering that Naturopathy aims to support the body's self-healing abilities in a holistic way, I am also adding astrology in certain situations for psychologic/emotional purposes. I will integrate Astrology into my consultations when patients need a more holistic approach that will consider their emotional needs. For example, when patient's need support with stress, anxiety, social anxiety, depression or other psychological symptoms.
(Please bear in mind that astrology will only be used for therapeutic psychologic/self awareness purposes considering the works of Carl Jung and the Archetypes).
What is Naturopathy?
Naturopathy is a Holistic Therapy, which means that the Naturopath will take into consideration the lifestyle, the diet and the emotional state of the patient in order to give a proper advice.
Naturopathy is beneficial in conditions related to high stress levels, weight management issues, chronic diseases, depression, sleep disorders, neurological conditions, among many others.
The patient may need a regular follow up, and in most cases the follow up is essential for the success of the treatment.
- Naturopathy works perfectly well together with other medical treatments.
- If necessary I am also open to add Massage/Deep Tissue or Sports Massage to my treatments.
I am available to offer online appointments or appointments in Dorking. Please get in touch with me by the Therapy Directory website or through my email address: lunahor@gmail.com
- The initial consultation price is 50 pounds. If adding massage therapy to the appointment a fee will be added according to the therapy room rental costs.
