Key principles include:

1. THE HEALING POWER OF NATURE

The body can heal itself, given the right conditions. The practitioner advises food and lifestyle changes that nourish the body and soul.

2. WORK WITH THE CAUSE, NOT THE SYMPTOM

We become detectives, looking into the food and lifestyle behaviours that are driving current health challenges.

3. SUPPORT THE WHOLE PERSON

Food, genetics, environment and life experience contribute to an individual’s health. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach.

4. PREVENTION IS PREFERABLE TO CURE

Nutritionists promote healthy nutrition and lifestyle to potentially reduce risk of disease.

5. IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION

We seek to work with clients so that they can feel empowered to make informed decisions about their health.

Naturopathic nutrition focuses on using whole, natural foods to promote good health. It emphasises individual food plans based on a person’s unique health needs, lifestyle and preferences.

Often includes guidance on supplements, herbs and detoxification, aiming to support overall well-being and enhance the body’s natural healing process.

I want to try to address the root cause of any illness and provide my clients with the knowledge and resources they need to take charge of their health.
