Naturopathy and Holistic Health Consultation

Eva Hajská's naturopathic consultation brings together the full toolkit of her TCM and naturopathy training — tongue diagnosis, iridology, pulse assessment, dietary analysis, and medical history review — to identify the root causes driving a patient's health challenges rather than managing symptoms in isolation. The philosophy underpinning the practice: when the body is properly guided and supported, it can address chronic disease through its own regulatory systems. Each consultation is 60 minutes and results in a holistic treatment plan integrating whichever of Eva's modalities — acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary change, reflexology — are most appropriate to the individual pattern. The practice has documented outcomes across a wide range: chronic pain, immune weakness, gynaecological disorders, hormonal imbalances, migraines, thyroid dysfunction, and stress-related conditions. Fifteen patient testimonials on the clinic website describe significant improvements and in many cases complete resolution of long-standing conditions.

Naturopathy (naturopatie in Czech) is a philosophy of healthcare as much as a set of techniques: the belief that the body has intrinsic healing capacities that, when supported through natural means — nutrition, herbs, manual therapy, lifestyle adjustment, and energetic medicine — can resolve or significantly improve the majority of chronic conditions. Eva Hajská's practice embodies this philosophy by drawing on her training across multiple disciplines to provide genuinely integrated care under one roof — and under one practitioner who maintains continuity across every session. The naturopathic consultation at this practice is the entry point for patients new to Eva's care or for those seeking a comprehensive reassessment. The 60-minute session covers: **Intake assessment:** A detailed medical and lifestyle history covers current symptoms (duration, triggers, aggravating and relieving factors), past diagnoses and treatments, current medications and supplements, diet and digestion, sleep quality, stress levels, and reproductive/hormonal history for female patients. **TCM diagnostics:** Eva performs tongue examination (noting coating colour, distribution, surface texture, and moisture — each feature corresponding to specific organ and pathological patterns in TCM), pulse palpation at the radial artery (reading three positions on each wrist that correspond to different organ systems), and abdominal palpation to assess reflex zone responses. **Iridology:** When indicated, the iris is examined for constitutional markings — colour variations, lacunas (gaps), radii solaris (stress lines), sodium rings, and other features that in iridological theory reflect genetic predispositions and organ status. Eva uses this as a complementary lens on the constitutional picture rather than a standalone diagnostic modality. Following this multi-modal assessment, Eva identifies the dominant patterns — in TCM terminology (liver qi stagnation, kidney yang deficiency, spleen qi deficiency, etc.) and in naturopathic terms (adrenal fatigue, gut dysbiosis, immune dysregulation, inflammatory load) — and builds a prioritised treatment plan. The plan may incorporate: - **Acupuncture** (Traditional Chinese, Japanese, or Abdominal, depending on presentation) for pain, neurological, hormonal, and energetic regulation - **Phytotherapy** — custom herbal tinctures and tea blends targeting the specific pattern - **Dietary guidance** — often drawing on TCM dietary principles (food temperature, flavour affinities to organs, avoiding damp-forming or heat-generating foods) integrated with modern nutritional understanding - **Laboratory testing** — Food Detective, hair analysis, or stool microbiota testing when biochemical data is needed to guide the protocol - **Lifestyle and stress management counsel** — particularly relevant for conditions rooted in sympathetic nervous system over-activation (chronic stress, insomnia, anxiety, high blood pressure) Conditions where naturopathic integrated care at this practice has produced documented improvement (per patient testimonials): rheumatoid arthritis with reduced medication dependence, facial nerve paralysis with significant recovery over 13 months, hormonal imbalance with restored menstruation, a 10-year recurrent yeast infection completely resolved, migraine frequency and intensity reduction, and immune strengthening for patients with recurrent infections. The practice operates by appointment only, Monday to Friday, from the Lesná residential district of Brno. All sessions are conducted by Eva Hajská personally — there are no other practitioners. This guarantees continuity of care and a consistent therapeutic relationship across the full course of treatment.
