✨ Naturopathy Rebates Are Returning ✨
This is something many of you have been waiting for…
From April 1st 2026, some private health funds have begun reintroducing rebates for Naturopathy and Western Herbal Medicine consultations.
This is a really meaningful step forward — not just for practitioners, but for our whole community who value natural, holistic care.
What does this mean for you?
Depending on your health fund, you may now be able to claim part of your consultation fee when you visit us at The Otway Wellbeing Centre.
At this stage, rebates are available through select funds including:
Teachers Health
Mildura Health Fund
CBHS Health
Other funds (like Medibank, HCF, and HBF) are currently reviewing or preparing to introduce this — so we may see even broader support in the near future.
A gentle invitation to consider…
If Naturopathic care is something you value and want to continue prioritising for yourself or your family,
it may be worth reviewing your current health fund and considering one that supports this type of care.
These choices help shape the future of healthcare in Australia.
They support:
Preventative, whole-person care
Individualised treatment approaches
The integration of traditional wisdom with modern understanding
A note from us
We are fully qualified practitioners and members of the Naturopaths and Herbalists Association of Australia, and we are in the process of ensuring everything is in place for eligible clients to claim rebates where available.
If you have questions about your fund or eligibility, feel free to reach out.
With care,
The Otway Wellbeing Centre

Yoga Nidra with Varsha

Cost: $20
"Yoga Nidra is a guided practice of deep, conscious rest where the body relaxes completely while the mind remains gently aware. This deeply restorative practice supports the nervous system, helping the body shift into a healing state, reduce stress, and restore energy. Practised lying down, it is suitable for all levels and requires no prior yoga experience."

White willow bark contains salicin, which is part of why it has such a long history of traditional use for pain support and inflammatory discomfort. It is traditionally used to support relief for everyday pain, tension, and inflammation-related discomfort. It is especially popular among people looking for an herbal tea ritual centered around joint comfort, muscle soreness, headaches, and general body aches. Always wise to check if there is negative interactions with current medications in case there are any contraindications.

The Otway Wellbeing Centre is opening its doors this January 2020! The previous Fusion Healing and Yoga Centre has changed hands and is undergoing bright new changes. Carly Merlo (Naturopath & Yoga Therapist) is the new owner. Upon entering The Otway Wellbeing Centre you will find a unique, tranquil holistic health centre, which offers a range of services and products that will inspire and help you to lead a healthier and happier lifestyle.
Starting the journey towards a healthier lifestyle can be difficult and even harmful without the correct guidance and resources. The Otway Wellbeing Centre solves this problem within the Colac Otway Community by offering a range of superior, personalised services from highly qualified practitioners. This includes; Naturopathic consultations, personal counselling sessions, group and private meditation sessions, Homoeopathic consultations from a highly qualified Homoeopathic practitioner (who also offers Bio-compatibility testing), Bowen therapy, massage therapy, crystal healing, reiki, energy healing, general yoga classes, pregnancy yoga and post natal yoga.
The centre will also offer a range of specialised classes, workshops and other special events throughout the year that all relate to maintaining natural health and wellness. Myself, other practitioners and people from within and outside the community will run these events.
The warm and inviting studio space can be rented out as a space that the community can use to share their love of health and wellness.
Also, The Otway Wellbeing Centre is a Naturopathic Dispensary. The dispensary will allow people to meet with a qualified Naturopath and purchase practitioner only and non practitioner products over the counter for mild, acute conditions that may not require a full consultation, or for repeat prescriptions . A brief consultation can be conducted over the counter and certain products may be dispensed at the discretion of the Naturopath. Otherwise, a full consultation may be required. The Naturopathic dispensary will also stock a range of other health related products that are difficult for the local community to obtain.
Overall, The Otway Wellbeing Centre is designed to share wisdom about how to live in a more natural and holistically healthier manner. The centre is offering and inspiring the local community to learn about their own health and how to enjoy their life in the healthiest way possible.
