It is sometimes said that ‘hair is the barometer of health’, and hair can certainly be a reflection of an individual’s lifestyle, indicating the stresses, tensions, and variations in the body’s systems.
Hair and scalp issues including hair loss, can affect people at anytime in their lives.
This can be quite distressing, especially when medical advice from GPs seems incomplete.
The causes of these problems can be due to poor nutrition, stress, premature ageing or illness.
But you may consider that a scalp or hair condition is something that you would not wish to trouble your doctor with.
How can I help?
The HairPhysio is my clinical Trichologist practice.
Trichologists are highly trained health professionals who provide treatment for people suffering from hair and scalp problems arising from things like poor nutrition, illness, and ageing.
Trichologists aim to improve a person’s hair and scalp by using a variety of treatments to restore hair and scalp health or to lessen the effects of any further problems.
As a certified hair and scalp clinical specialist, the trichologist will understand your concerns and will usually be able to help.
My practice is dedicated to providing expert advice and treatment for all types of hair loss and scalp problems, as well as hair problems ranging from chemical damage to simply dull, dry, ‘difficult’ or limp hair.
I understand the distress that various hair issues can cause and our experts have an honest and ethical consultancy approach, which will ensure you get the right diagnosis and treatment and have the best experience.
