Why work with me

As a degree qualified Naturopath and Nutritionist I am passionate about restoring optimal health through the use of evidence based nutrition and lifestyle changes and where necessary through the use of nutritional supplements and herbal medicine. I believe in finding and treating the root cause of chronic illness and treating the whole person, not just masking the symptoms, in order to restore vitality and return to good health. 

Services

After gaining an understanding of your experience of the condition I can provide a treatment plan that is specifically tailored just for you. Where necessary, tests for Food Sensitivities, Gut Microbiome, Mood Appraisal and MTHFR Wellness can be arranged.

Naturopathic Consultations

Initial Naturopathic consultations last for an hour. During this time, I will take a detailed case history and ask questions about various body systems.

Gut Microbiome Testing

he test is designed to assess your microbiome from a single stool sample, with particular attention to microbes that cause disease.

MTHFR Testing

Testing for MTHFR polymorphisms Wellbeing Bundle identifies the key MTHFR polymorphisms and how they impact various processes in the body.

Food Intolerance Testing

Food sensitivity testing can determine the underlying cause of your chronic digestive issues, can provide answers to your concerns and allow you to eliminate offending foods from your diet.

Diet and Nutritional Analysis

These highly processed foods reduce the quality of the gastric juices in the stomach, increases intestinal permeability which allows pathogens to flourish in our small intestine. Book an appointment if you would like diet and nutritional advice.

Mood Appraisal

The Mood Appraisal questionnaire is a tool designed to identify which neurotransmitter pathways need support. A questionnaire comprising 66 questions is e-mailed to you and takes around 10 minutes to complete.

Working with you

If you have a chronic and complex condition, it likely took many years to manifest. It may therefore take many months for the condition to resolve. There are no magic pills and there is no quick fix. However, by removing aggravating factors such as poor diet and lifestyle choices and replacing them with healthy choices, nutrients and herbs, the bodies innate healing ability can be stimulated.
