Are you always reaching for. the painkillers for every ache and pain? Would you like to know if there is a better way to manage your pain in the long-term? Are you feeling tired and low in mood and would like to find out how to increase your energy levels and feel happier and more fulfilled? Nutritional Therapy can help with all of this plus much much more..

A Naturopathic Nutritionist applies the following in treatment:

  • The use of whole and organic food as medicine
  • Detoxification and cleansing
  • Assessment of the constitution of a patient (Ayurvedic dosha in my practice)
  • Applying additional Naturopathic therapies such as Bach Flowers, Tongue Analysis, Iridology and Herbs
  • Referral to other complementary therapies if needed to get a balance of harmony within the client’s life.

Nutritional therapy focuses on improving the overall nutrient value of a client’s diet to ensure complete well being and sustained health. The therapy also considers lifestyle and environmental factors that might affect ultimate well being. During this process a client is educated as to the benefits of natural dietary and lifestyle intervention, so that they can feel empowered to take charge of their own health.

A common question asked is who might visit a Nutritional therapist? The answer is – ANYBODY, from those that want to simply improve their overall diet, to individuals with more chronic health conditions. More people are becoming aware that good health can be achieved naturally without the heavy reliance on popping pills to make the pain go away, essentially masking the symptoms.

In my practice we get to the root cause of what is going on with your health, where it all started and what aggravates it/makes it worse. Taking a vested interest in the cause will help to uncover ways of resolving it for the long term. The aim is to empower people to take command of their health in ways that are as natural as possible.
