Consult at the practice

Medicine that takes the time to consider you as a whole, combining functional medicine, nutrition and hypnosis with attentive follow-up.

Functionally-oriented medicine

An approach that seeks to better understand the various factors influencing your health — lifestyle, diet, sleep, stress — drawing on medical evidence while remaining open to the knowledge of traditional Polynesian medicine.

Nutrition

Personalised nutritional support, tailored to your situation, lifestyle and health goals, grounded in training in physio-nutrition.

Hypnotherapy

A tool in the service of the care relationship: stress management, support for pain, sleep and change, at your own pace.

Understanding the approach

Functional medicine: the 5 P’s

Functional medicine seeks to understand the origin of imbalances rather than treating symptoms alone. It rests on four core principles — to which I add a fifth, essential in my view: proof.

P

Predictive

Identify risk factors and vulnerabilities before illness appears.

P

Preventive

Act upstream on lifestyle, diet, sleep and stress.

P

Personalised

Tailor the support to your history, your terrain and your goals.

P

Participatory

Make you an active participant in your health, in a shared care relationship.

P

Proof

Rely on scientific evidence: evidence-based medicine.

The place

A soothing setting, in the heart of Papeete

The practice was designed as a calm, bright space, conducive to listening and relaxation: a consultation area, a support space and a warm atmosphere.

Sport & mind

Mental preparation and support for athletes

I support athletes through hypnosis and mental preparation: stress management, concentration, confidence and recovery.

This support is for high-level athletes and amateurs alike, particularly in triathlon, surfing and freediving. I have also accompanied the Tahitian delegation to the Pacific Games twice (Saipan and Palau).

How it works

How a consultation unfolds

A time to listen. We take the time to review your situation, your history and your expectations.
A whole-person reading. Lifestyle, diet, sleep, stress: we place your symptoms in their context.
Tailored support. Depending on needs, the consultation may combine nutritional advice, hypnosis and medical follow-up.
Long-term follow-up. The aim is to support you at your own pace, respecting your journey.

General information. Every situation is different and is assessed individually; this support complements your usual medical care.
