Health and Happiness are essential for our children and for ourselves to have optimum fulfilling lives

New - Now offering Iridology Photography, Blood type tests & Hair Analysis for allergies & intolerances.

Naturopathy uses Natural means to enhance our health and prevent us from any disharmony or to treat ailments and symptoms in a holistic way (Treating the body as a whole).

Herbal Medicines are natural plants and fruits that are made into tinctures or liquid medicines and tablets as opposed to synthetic medications or drugs.

Nutrition is a large part of Naturopathy as we look at your personal diets to help you ensure you have a well balanced diet minimizing nutritional deficiencies. It can also help work out any food intolerances or allergies and we can modify food habits to personally suit you making sure you get a nutritious well-balanced easily adaptable diet.

Most Nutrition is obtained through our diet, though sometimes we may need the help of certain Professional Nutrional Supplements to help us regain our optimum path achieve maximum health of our body, mind and spirit.

I also use Australian Bush Flower Essences. 

Flower Essences are wonderful remedies that can help with emotional as well as physical symptoms and are especially helpful in treating children.

Bottle brush, for example, may be given to those who may have a tendency to 'hold on' to emotions which can often lead to congestion and constipation. This Australian Bush Flower Remedies is also ideal for mother and child bonding especially where the child may be exceptionally clingy.

Prevention is better than cure

Treating the body holistically with herbal medicine and nutrition will treat the body as a whole, the physical and the psychological.

A Naturopath Consultation

Initial Naturopathic consultation is for one hour, asking relevant questions focusing on your presenting symptoms and concerns also looking at other aspects of your health which maybe, and often is the underlying causes of  imbalance.

Naturopath’s Diagnosis Tool Box

I can test your blood type in the first consultation by taking two drops of blood, (very gently).

As a Naturopath we can look at persons constitution:

Skin : Are there any skin problems, e.g. eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, hormonal acne, strange blothes, itching, pallor, premature aging and lacks luste.

Is the skin dry, oily, sensitive?

Body Type : Using Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge.

Hair : Does the hair look healthy, dry, premature graying, hair loss, sparse hair?

Eyes : Do the eyes sparkle, red, yellowy, tired, dry?

NEW - IRIDOLOGY PHOTOGRAPHY

Iridology :  Iridology is a diagnosis tool to verify a persons constitution or type. We can look at the digestive area of the iris to see if there is a build up of toxins. Are there lymphatic congestion signs that may indicate an allergy or immune dysfunction? In the stomach region, is there a lot of whitening indicating increased gastric juices or acidity, common during times of stress, and enlargement of the pupils indicating fear or exhaustion? Are you Magnesium deficient?

Tongue Analysis : One can actually tell a lot about a persons digestive system by looking at the tongue. This is a very common diagnostic tool in China.

NEW - HAIR ANALYSIS TESTING

Be Allergy Free through Bio-compatibility Testing (300 local foods and products) - Find out which foods are making you sick and which foods you CAN eat.

Diet Diary

I like people to fill out a diet diary for about 10 days, with every thing they have eaten, the time they have eaten it and a note of any symptoms occurring on that day. This can help work out any nutritional allergies or deficiencies, and they can be corrected with either changing the diet or we can prescribe nutritional supplements if it is clear that a person is lacking from particular nutrients.

Blood Tests

Full blood tests and chemistry tests are essential to determine any long term medical deficiences or imbalances, such as Iron, immune or hormonal imbalances.

There may be need for a number of other medical tests to be performed such as salivary analysis depending on each person which we can discuss on consutlation.

I am happy to work along side any Doctors and other professional Practitioners and often refer patients if I feel they need certain tests or a second opinion, e.g. Diabetes, Epilepsy. I also need to know what medications people are taking e.g. Anti-depressants, Aspirin etc. so we can ensure a safe treatment program.

Most Medical tests are available through consultation at the Noosa Parade Medical Centre
