Why a bowel consultation?

Our gut is also known as our second brain. As such, the connection between the two is incredibly important for our overall health. As many as 92% of the nerve cells in the brain are also found in the intestines. This means that our brain and intestines are in constant communication with each other.

Healthy bowels begin with a healthy diet. A healthy diet therefore also ensures a healthy brain. But how is our intestinal health?

Many chronic diseases can be traced back to unhealthy intestinal bacteria. All the bacteria in the intestines - both healthy and unhealthy bacteria - together are called our intestinal flora.

The intestinal consultation package consists of 2 personal coaching sessions with our intestinal therapist at the Brain Balance location in Rotterdam or online: an initial coaching session of 60 minutes and an evaluation session of 30 minutes.

1. Coaching conversation

The coaching session focuses on all facets involved in resolving your symptoms. Based on your situation, you will receive customized advice by an orthomolecular colon therapist on lifestyle, sleep, relaxation, exercise, nutrition and supplements.

After registering for the consultation you will receive a confirmation email containing a link to an online planner. Here you can choose your preferred date and time for the appointment. 

2. Evaluation interview

After 2 or 4 weeks, an evaluation talk will follow. We analyse where you are now as a result of the earlier advice and discuss any points of attention and improvement. 

During the second meeting, we discuss which follow-up trajectory is suitable for you. If you decide to continue, we have packages available for this.

Get the most out of your coaching journey

We help people who really want to work fully on themselves in all areas. So with us, you certainly won't just be presented with supplement advice and ready-made recipes.

We pay close attention to the whole picture in order to improve your life and health in all areas. From lifestyle to exercise, sleep to relaxation and nutrition to supplementation. Does this sound like the typical thing for you? Then be quick and together we strive to connect with each other and connect with you to get the most out of your coaching journey.

Schedule an appointment

You can schedule an appointment live at our Rotterdam office or make an online appointment. Be aware that it really is an investment in yourself, where live often comes across better than online (provided of course you live far away). Allow yourself this moment to get everything out of it.

Step 1: Schedule an appointment, please allow 1 week processing time. So schedule your appointment no earlier than 1 week from the current date so that our therapist can properly prepare the interview. During the intake we will make an appointment together for your evaluation session.

Step 2: You will then receive an email from us to complete your personal information and the intake form so that we can prepare the consultation as well as possible. Submit this at least 4 days in advance, so we can prepare the consultation properly.

Step 3: The consultation with one of our therapists to discuss the results.

Cancellation is possible up to 7 days before the appointment due to availability. Appointments can be rescheduled up to 72 hours in advance.

Notice! After purchase, you will receive your appointment confirmation within minutes. After 5 p.m. or on weekends it may take a little longer. We will confirm your appointment the next business day.

What happens after scheduling my appointment?

At the time you book a bowel consultation, the process looks like this:

Step 1: Check our calendar to see what time you would like to schedule your bowel consultation with one of our therapists (online/live).

Step 2: After scheduling the appointment, you will receive a confirmation email giving you access to our online client environment.

Step 3: You will receive your online questionnaire with questions about your diet, digestion, gut, sleep, stress, etc.

Step 4: Complete this questionnaire completely and honestly before the appointment takes place.

Step 5: The therapists review your intake form before the consultation to prepare for the interview.

Step 6: Live session? You can park for free in front of the door and you will be welcomed at our office.

Online session? You will receive the link to the video session in an email (client environment)

Step 7: At the time you have your consultation (1.5 hours), a detailed discussion takes place with your therapist in which the advice and plan are discussed with you.

Step 8: During the consultation, there is room for questions and you will receive information on how you can improve your gut health through lifestyle changes, sleep, relaxation, exercise, nutrition and/or supplements.

Step 9: After the interview you will also receive your advice digitally (client environment) so you can review it at home and have a clear overview.

Step 10: After 4-6 weeks you have a half-hour evaluation: where are you, what do you still need and what next steps are appropriate for you?

Step 11: Depending on what you need, we will see you back in the office or help you move forward in a way that suits you.
