Fatigue, bloating, PMS, brain fog, anxiety… sound familiar?
These are often signs of deeper, interconnected imbalances, not isolated issues.

🧠 Brain
💩 Gut

🧬 Hormones
🔥 Inflammation

In naturopathy, we don’t use herbs or nutrients randomly.
We match them to your unique picture, energetically and physiologically.

🌡 Run hot or inflamed? Cooling herbs help regulate.

You’re not a set of lab results.
You’re a whole person, and your health is a mosaic of experiences, stressors, genetics, environment, and emotions.

That’s why naturopathy embraces complexity.
🌿 We listen to your story
🧩 Connect the dots
✨ And treat the whole you, not just isolated symptoms.

“What if your symptoms were messages—not mistakes?”
Naturopathy views disease as the body’s adaptive process, not just a breakdown.
Your body is always trying to protect you.

💡 We don’t just treat the diagnosis.
We look at how your systems are functioning, and where they’ve been pushed out of balance.

We don’t often think about how laundry products might impact va**nal health, but harsh detergents and fabric softeners can contribute to irritation.

🌱 Tips for a va**nal-friendly laundry routine:
✔️ Choose low-tox, fragrance-free detergents
✔️ Wash underwear in hot water to eliminate bacteria
✔️ Regularly clean your washing machine with vinegar & bicarb soda to prevent mould buildup

Did you know va**nal dryness is the most reported menopause symptom? 😣 Up to 93% of postmenopausal women experience it, with 68% reporting moderate to severe discomfort.

🚨 Signs of Vaginal Dryness:
- Itching, burning, or irritation
- Discomfort during intimacy
- Increased risk of infections

Without oestrogen, the va**nal walls lose elasticity and moisture, making everyday life (and intimacy) uncomfortable. But you don’t have to live with it! There are solutions to restore comfort and confidence. 💖

Vaginal dryness is common during menopause, but not all lubricants are created equal. Some can actually cause more irritation over time.

✅ What to look for in a lubricant:
✔️ Water-based or silicone-based options (safe and non-irritating)
✔️ Natural oils like coconut, olive, or sweet almond for extra hydration
✔️ pH-balanced & low-osmolality formulas to protect va**nal tissue

🚫 What to avoid:
❌ Alcohol & fragrances
❌ High-osmolality lubricants (can dry out tissue)

💡 Moisturisers vs. Lubricants? Moisturisers help long-term hydration, while lubricants provide short-term relief during intimacy.

Many feminine hygiene products contain harsh chemicals that can irritate sensitive tissues, disrupt va**nal pH, and impact the microbiome.

🌿 Simple swaps for a healthier va**nal environment:
✔️ Wash with water or a gentle, non-toxic cleanser (avoid harsh soaps and fragrances)
✔️ Wear cotton or bamboo underwear to allow airflow
✔️ Avoid wipes, sprays, and douches, which can strip away natural moisture

Your va**na has its own built-in cleansing system. Supporting its natural balance is often the best care you can give.
