NATURE NURTURE NOURISH

“I believe that nurturing and nourishing our whole body is important for bringing back balance to our mental and physical wellbeing. I work 1:1 with clients to address the root causes of dysfunction or imbalance: with help from nature; our body’s own healing potential; individualised nutrition; positive lifestyle practices; and plant nutraceuticals”

My Approach

My approach is down-to-earth, open, and supportive. I want to help you understand your own body and what is happening inside and why. I focus on you as an individual and not just as a set of physiological processes, so we can find the best way for you to help yourself.

My Methods

Let me help you by:

  • supporting your body's natural healing mechanisms

  • working on the root causes of dysfunction and disease

  • providing individualised nutrition recommendations to ensure your specific nutrient requirements are met.
