While we wait for the research into Long Covid there is an opportunity to take a proactive approach with nutritional intervention.
Lucinda Miller MH MRNI MGNI has been seeing patients with long lasting Covid19 symptoms in her naturopathic clinic most of this year.
Lucinda is a Naturopath, Iridologist, Herbalist & Functional Medicine Practitioner, Lucinda takes a scientific and holistic approach to identify health problems, using laboratory testing and gentle, natural interventions to provide solutions. She has a team of 15.
Clinic appointments offer the option of stool, hair and urine testing to help really understand what is going on in the body.
As the numbers of patients with Long Covid in clinic increase, she has begun to notice strong trends and kindly offered to present to members of The Long Covid Kids Parents Support Group to share her knowledge enabling parents to start supporting their children.
