What is Naturopathy?

Naturopathy is a form of medicine and a unique healing system that encompasses both scientific knowledge and traditional theory.

Treating the whole person and helping to integrate both the physical and spiritual dimensions into a personalised treatment plan is part of a down-to-earth holistic approach.

What Are The Benefits of Naturopathic Medicine?

There are so many health benefits of naturopathic medicine. As your Naturopath, I look beyond your symptoms to identify and treat the underlying cause of your health concerns.

I am passionate about getting to the root cause, relieving your symptoms and most importantly improving your quality of life.

I like to take a preventative approach to health so it’s important to remember that you don’t need to be “sick” to see a Naturopath. I can guide you on how to live healthily to prevent illness and chronic health conditions before they can occur.

How Can a Naturopath Help You?

As a Naturopath, I work with all areas of health and well-being and can support both acute and chronic health conditions, including:

  • Skin conditions, eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis, acne, rashes, itchy, dry and inflamed skin
  • Irritable bowel syndrome, bloating, diarrhoea, constipation, flatulence and poor digestion
  • Gastro-intestinal disorders, symptoms and gut health
  • Weight management

  • Endometriosis and thyroid conditions
  • Headaches and migraines
  • Auto-immune disease such as lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, Hashimoto’s, coeliac and Crohn’s disease
  • Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and chronic pain conditions
  • Fatigue, sleep disturbances, low energy, foggy memory and poor concentration
  • Food intolerances and sensitivities
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Men’s health
  • Behavioural issues with children
  • Children’s health and nutrition including autism (ASD), ADD, ADHD
  • Reflux, colic, sinus and hay fever
  • Recurring infections, illnesses and disease
  • Nutritional deficiencies
  • Cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure
  • Support for cancer management

Naturopathic Treatment

Treatment by a Naturopath consists of a variety of natural therapies, including:

Herbal Medicine

Using plants as medicine is one of the oldest forms of medicine and in-clinic you can experience healing with the highest quality medical-grade herbs.

A Professionally Trained Herbalist can prescribe an individualised herbal formula to support a range of conditions including women’s health, hormones, fertility, skin conditions, stress and fatigue, men’s health, children’s health and immunity, anxiety and depression, autoimmune disease and many more.

Nutrition Advice

There is no one right way to eat. At Aussie Naturopath, I provide individualised nutrition healthcare and am here to help you find out what works for you and what doesn’t.

By providing expert nutrition advice, I can help you sift through the latest health trends, steer clear of fad diets and get you back to nourishing yourself with the best nutrients for you.

Nutritional medicine is effective and can be used to support people who need help with establishing healthy eating and meal planning, nutritional deficiencies, weight management, food intolerances and sensitivities and many more.

Flower Essences Therapy

The Australian Bush Flower Essences are a gentle and effective way of helping you move toward healthy growth and can also be a powerful catalyst for healing and change.

The Bush Essences are a powerful system for emotional wellbeing and can be used for people experiencing mood swings, mental or emotional exhaustion, worry, grief and loss, addictions, panic and nightmares or anyone feeling drained, worn out or disconnected.

Iridology 

Iridology offers a safe and non-invasive holistic tool to analyse the iris of your eye.

The iris can simply reveal which body systems are not performing well or are over-stressed. The analysis can give me an indication of your vitality level and the inherent strengths and weaknesses of your body. Your iris is considered the window to your body and soul.

Lifestyle Recommendations

Your lifestyle and your environment can have an impact on your health. Together we address areas such as reducing stress, work-life balance and the everyday juggling act of trying to live well. We spend time focusing on how to help you to take better care of yourself and get you back to feeling healthy and vibrant again.

Nutritional Supplements

It’s a sad fact that the modern Western diet cannot provide the nutrients we need and over the long term can turn those irritating symptoms you have into a chronic health condition.

Nourishing your body with correct nutrition, combined with supplementation of high-quality vitamins and minerals can support the body’s healing process and get you back on track to living well.

Working with your Naturopath, you can rest assured that you are taking the correct dosage as well as considering any possible interactions with other supplements or medications that you take.

I would love to see you in the Gold Coast Naturopath Clinic or alternatively, no matter where you are, I can offer naturopathy services by Skype or Phone consultations and provide nutritional supplementation and pathology testing advice.

Booking is simple & easy!  For individual naturopathic consultations Book ⇒ HERE ⇐

I look forward to welcoming you to the clinic soon!

Take care,

Kristy | Aussie Naturopath
