FAQs

  • Naturopathy is a holistic approach to healthcare that emphasises natural remedies and the body's innate ability to heal itself. Naturopathic practitioners aim to address the root cause of illness rather than simply treating symptoms, promoting overall wellness and prevention of disease. Naturopathy is often used alongside conventional medical treatments as part of an integrative approach to healthcare.

  • Functional testing is a powerful tool for naturopathic practitioners to provide a comprehensive insight into one’s health, going beyond what traditional testing can reveal.

    Common Functional Tests in Naturopathy:

    Comprehensive Stool Analysis: Assesses gut health, including microbiome composition, digestive enzyme levels, and the presence of pathogens.

    Hormone Panels: Evaluates levels of hormones such as cortisol, thyroid hormones, and sex hormones to identify imbalances affecting mood, energy, and metabolism.

    Nutritional Deficiency Testing: Identifies deficiencies in essential vitamins and minerals that can impact overall health and wellbeing.

    Food Sensitivity Testing: Detects adverse reactions to specific foods that might be contributing to chronic inflammation or digestive issues.

    Metabolic Panels: Assesses markers related to blood sugar regulation, liver function, and lipid profiles to understand metabolic health.

  • Naturopathic or Nutrition consultations may be claimable depending on your health fund and level of cover. I recommend checking with your provider prior to your appointment.

  • No referral is needed. You can book directly through the website or get in touch to arrange an appointment.

  • All consultation types are available online via secure video call, so you can access care from anywhere in Australia. Functional testing can also be arranged remotely through approved pathology providers.

  • Gather any recent blood tests or pathology results, make a note of your current medications and supplements, and think about what's been bothering you most. There's no need to prepare anything formal, just come as you are.
