Individual consultations in person or by video call. In French or English.
First consultation
The first consultation is an opportunity to get to know each other, discuss your expectations and well-being goals, and gather the information useful for your support, as outlined below.
This first step allows me to better understand your situation as a whole so that I can offer personalised naturopathic support, using a functional approach
Information gathering
Our discussions cover your lifestyle, environment, vitality, stress levels, digestive comfort and the everyday factors that may influence it.
Information about your medical follow-up and current treatments is also taken into account so that the naturopathic support remains complementary to your medical care.
A Particular Focus on Digestive Comfort
Our discussions also provide an opportunity to explore the role of the gut microbiota in digestive well-being, an aspect to which I pay particular attention in my naturopathic approach.
The Gut Microbiota at the Heart of My Approach
Our gut microbiota is like a living garden, where each element contributes to a delicate balance. Like any garden, it grows in its own unique environment, shaped in particular by our genetic background, how we respond to stress, our diet, lifestyle and surroundings.
In naturopathy, the concept of individual constitution (or “terrain”) encourages us to consider each person as a whole. The gut microbiota forms part of this broader picture: it is influenced by our individual circumstances and, in turn, contributes to our overall balance.
My approach draws on this perspective to support you in cultivating habits that promote digestive comfort, vitality and everyday well-being.
Patricia Laissy practises as a naturopath, using a functional approach, and does not practise as a physician or dietitian. Her support is focused on well-being and is based in particular on advice relating to diet, micronutrition and lifestyle.
This support does not constitute a medical diagnosis or treatment and is not a substitute for consultation with or follow-up by an authorised healthcare professional. If you have symptoms or a known or suspected illness, medical advice should be sought. No medical treatment should be changed or discontinued without the advice of the healthcare professional responsible for your care.
Practical Guidance for Everyday Life
At the end of the consultation, I suggest practical ideas relating to lifestyle, diet and micronutrition as part of my naturopathic support.
Depending on the topics discussed and your goals, these may include:
- Information about meal timing and how meals are distributed throughout the day;
- Ideas for simple, easy-to-prepare recipes;
- Information about different food groups;
- Guidance on reading food labels;
- Practical shopping tips and how to choose everyday products;
- Information about micronutrition and food supplements, where relevant;
- Advice on herbal products for well-being, where appropriate;
- Accompanied grocery shopping in Luxembourg, on request.
Follow-up consultations provide an opportunity to discuss how these ideas work in practice, how you feel and any difficulties encountered in everyday life.
Alongside your medical follow-up
Naturopathic support can be provided alongside medical follow-up. Current medical treatments are taken into account so that the advice provided respects your medical care. No medical treatment should be changed or discontinued without the advice of the healthcare professional responsible for your care.
follow-up consultations
Setting up the support
Depending on your needs and well-being goals, several consultations may be useful to help you gradually put into practice guidance relating to diet, micronutrition and lifestyle, with particular attention to digestive comfort and the intestinal ecosystem.
Step-by-step support
Together, we decide how often to meet based on your needs, pace and expectations.
Maintaining vitality and consolidating habits:
Once the desired changes have become part of your daily routine, one or two follow-up sessions a year may be considered to review how they are being put into practice and the benefits you have noticed.
Like a garden tended throughout the seasons, our well-being sometimes needs small adjustments. These appointments offer an opportunity to nurture habits that make you feel good, revisit those that no longer suit you and explore new ways to support your everyday balance.
You are part of the process.
Your involvement and commitment play an essential role in establishing lasting new habits.
In person or remote consultations
Consultations can take place in the office or remotely by video consultation via the Doctena platform, depending on your preferences and possibilities.
The office is located in Walferdange and is easily accessible by public transport.
I offer consultations in French or English.
