Good Health Begins in the Gut

Healthy eating is the cornerstone to maintaining and improving your health at any age. A healthy digestive system and good gut health supports immunity, moods, hormone balance, vitamin production, and keeps us functioning at an optimal level.

From time to time, our gut health can be thrown out of balance from stress, eating processed foods, too much alcohol and caffeine, antibiotic use, not getting enough rest and sleep, or even gut infections.

This imbalance can cause bloating, digestive issues and lead to cravings for unhealthy foods.. It can affect our energy, sleep, skin and hair, hormones, immunity, and moods.

Naturopathy harnesses the healing power of nature to restore balanced function within the digestive system, while improving overall health and wellbeing.

Science has recognised the importance of gut health and the gut microbiome for our overall health and in the prevention of many chronic diseases. Optimising your digestive health goes along way towards maintaining good health.

If you are experiencing symptoms such as constipation, diarrhoea, bloating, gas, reflux, food sensitivities and intolerances, naturopathy provides a natural restorative approach to gut health. IBS

Perimenopause and Menopause Support

Menopausal transition is a normal part of a woman’s life but, for some, it can feel far from normal. One thing is certain, your hormones are changing and your body is changing.

You may be experiencing symptoms such as; brain fog, mood changes, poor sleep, low energy, weight gain, hot flushes, vaginal dryness and low libido

I’ve been there myself and I have helped women, just like you, for over a decade. I can help you navigate your changing hormone balance and manage the sometimes overwhelming array of symptoms that can accompany this stage of your life.

I have developed the 21-Day Reset and Refresh Diet Program as a great kick-start for women wanting to make positive changes to their hormonal balance, overall health and wellbeing.
