I have been using Vitamedicine since starting clinic in 1999. The word “vitamedicine” was formed from the Latin word “vita” meaning “life” and medicine. I have built my career on Vitamedicine and have very big plans for the future. Won’t say too much now, but I can say that the plans are strong and the steps are in place. Vitamedicine is a personalised holistic system of health care with a core set of philosophies, principles, and practices. Vitamedicine looks at the whole person, physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, and environmentally, and focuses on the person’s individual needs. It is person-centric. It aims to address the underlying causes of health issues and to promote optimum health. It takes into account the lifestyle factors of the person. Vitamedicine utilises traditional knowledge and science.
