Naturopathy is a unique health care system which uses an all-natural approach to improve health & prevent disease (dis-ease!) by treating the cause of ill health.

​

​

Establishing conditions for health.

​

Given the right circumstances, your body has an innate ability to heal itself. For example, if you cut yourself, your skin will naturally heal. Unresolved health conditions occur when the body becomes out of balance & is unable to heal itself.  In naturopathy we find & address the underlying cause of a health concern to restore balance so the body can self-heal. 

​

The first step in restoring balance is to establish the conditions for health and removing obstacles. This means providing your body what it needs for health and removing anything which may be getting in the way of the body being able to restore health. Based on your individual dietary & lifestyle preferences, a treatment plan is designed to meet your foundational requirements so that your body can begin to heal.

​

Health Science

​

A major strength of naturopathy lies within its combination of scientific research & centuries old traditional medicine to deliver personalised treatment for each patient. Treatments are designed around what your body needs on a biochemical level. Treatments include dietary and lifestyle guidance as well as herbal and/or nutritional supplementation if deemed necessary. 

​

Nutrition

​

Along with adequate hydration, sleep and stress management, nutrition is a foundation of health. Good nutrition is providing the body with the essential vitamins and minerals it needs from food to carry out the millions of chemical reactions happening in your body every second. Ensuring your body gets the nutrition it needs is a major step in supporting your body to better health.
