About me
Consultations can either take place virtually via Zoom/Skype or they can be held in person at The Chelsea Pharmacy Medical Clinic (contact@cpmedicalclinic.com)), 61-63 Sloane Ave, SW3 3DH, depending on your preference. The initial consultation lasts between an hour and an hour and a half, depending on individual circumstances. It covers a number of topics to better understand not just medical symptoms but also the background, medical history, eating habits and lifestyle factors. This information may need to be integrated by functional tests (blood, urine, stool) in order to assess imbalances that could be at the root of your health issues.
After all the information is analyzed, a full report is prepared and discussed with the patient. The report highlights:
- Red Flags: what are the suspected causes of imbalances.
- Action Points: suggested steps to be taken by the patient to address the Red Flags.
- A Sustainable Nutritional Programme based on the patient’s food preferences.
A second consultation is usually scheduled after three to five weeks. This is a chance for the patient to discuss the successes and the challenges of the previous weeks and how to consolidate the wins for the long term.
The quickest way to get in touch with me to find out how we can work together is to go ahead and book a free 20-minute discovery call using the calendar in my website https://chelseanutritionist.com/contact/ or sending me an email on natalia@chelseanutritionist.com

Nutrition topics
Information about health conditions (*)
Nutritional therapy can help enhance the well-being of individuals diagnosed with serious medical conditions, but should not take the place of medical treatment and advice. If you have been diagnosed with - or suspect you may have - any of these conditions, please speak to your doctor before starting nutritional therapy or making any major changes to your diet or lifestyle.
