According to the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS), Naturopathy is “a holistic system of healing that incorporates a range of treatments and natural therapies, with the underlying belief that your body given the right support. is able to heal itself. Naturopathy takes a more holistic approach to healthcare with a client’s overall health a priority”

Naturopathy uses the best of both scientific evidence and traditional medicine to form a complete system of health care. It is underpinned by six principles:

• The healing power of nature
• First do no harm
• Find and treat the cause whenever possible, not only the symptoms
• Treat the whole person
• Education
• Prevention

Think of a naturopath as your personal holistic health coach and cheerleader for change- someone to help support you, guide you and educate you in all areas of your health and wellbeing so that you can look and feel your best and in time, become your own wellness warrior.

Naturopaths use scientifically-proven natural medicine to get to the root cause of your health concerns and develop a personalised wellbeing plan to address the causes, not just the symptoms and to help you thrive.  Naturopaths are also preventative medicine specialists, supporting you in your goal to achieve your best health, for life.

Naturopaths draw on a wide range of natural treatment methods, including: herbal medicine, nutritional medicine, dietary and lifestyle advice or other therapies. 

Above all, Naturopaths firmly believe your health is your greatest asset, and without it life can be pretty miserable. You only have one body to live in, and life is short, so it is important to make sure you nurture and support your body now, so you can get the most out of life.

We believe everyone can benefit from a naturopathic treatment. Most business people, athletes and celebrities have multiple coaches surrounding them to help them achieve their goals at work and in life.

Given your health underpins your very ability to work, play and enjoy life, why wouldn’t you invest in a health coach to address any existing health concerns and ensure you are operating at optimum health? A qualified and experienced naturopath is the perfect health coach and has the experience and knowledge to help guide you to your best health.

Whether you are interested in treatment for a pre-existing condition or simpliy optimising your health to prevent future health problems, We can help.

While doctors tend to address the symptoms of disease -using various medications, most have very limited knowledge in nutrition, nutritional supplementation or natural healing.

Naturopaths on the other hand take a more holistic approach and are trained to treat the whole person, not just the symptoms. Naturopaths look at ALL aspects of your health, taking into consideration of your physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being. They aim to get to the root cause of disease and then employ various natural healing methods to empower an individual to achieve the highest possible level  of health.

To do this, they may recommend diet and lifestyle changes, nutritional supplementation, herbal medicine or various other natural treatments too balance health issues. Naturopaths are also trained in pathology testing and prescribe wellness plans that are unique and personalised to your health needs.

Naturopaths do to take the role of a medical doctor, nor do they diagnose disease. They work in conjunction with your Doctor and other healthcare providers to help you function optimally. Naturopaths help you create and implement an individual plan for your ideal health. If they believe you would benefit from further treatment, they will help you coordinate referrals to trusted professionals in the specific order needed.

We believe your best to test, not guess when it comes to your health and as such pathology and functional testing are an essential component of treatment.

Functional lab testing is not designed to diagnose a health condition or disease but rather gives us a picture of how your body is functioning,. These tests can illustrate your body’s strengths, weaknesses and help us identify patterns of imbalance in the body.

Functional testing provides an important piece of the puzzle and when used in conjunction with pathology testing, your health history and current dietary and lifestyle habits , it gives us a full picture of your health and helps us prioritise treatment. With all of this information we can work out the best way to bring your body back into balance by supporting it with personalised healing protocols and lifestyle upgrades.

Depending on your health concerns and goals we may run a variety of lab tests

• Genetic testing,- to identify your strengths and weakness in the areas of: detoxification, hormones and fertility, methylation, mood and cognition, nutrigenomic, inflammation and oxidation.
• Hormone Imbalances (DUTCH test)
• Food intolerances (IGG or IGE panels)
• Heavy metal and mineral imbalances (hair mineral analysis)
• HPA Axis Dysfunction (Adrenals)
• Gut health testing ( CDSA -stool analysis or microbiome mapping)
• SIBO, dysbiosis and parasites
• Leaky Gut (intestinal permeability testing)
• Inflammation and Oxidative Stress
• Organic Acids Testing

It’s important to remember that identifying and treating a person’s underlying causes and imbalances can take time. Further, it takes time to implement changes in our diet and lifestyle and for those changes to be reflected in newly generated body cells.

Other than in acute cases, Naturopathy is not a ‘quick fix’ band-aid solution. The goal is to dive deep and discover the underlying issues and then put in place a personalised treatment plan to help you get back to great health. Ultimately, I want to help you understand your body better, educate and support you in natural healing so that in time you can be your own wellness expert.
