It was great to have Jarryd from Hurst Podiatry stop by the clinic to say hello 👋🏻

It’s impressive to see the range of tools they have at their disposal to treat a range of issues.

You can find Jarryd at their Healesville clinic for all your ankle and foot complaints.

Ever wondered who should see a Dietitian or Naturopath? The short answer is... anyone!

Dietitians and Naturopaths are health professionals who can work with people suffering from chronic health conditions such as IBD, Diabetes, food intolerances/allergies, gastritis and coeliac disease. However, that is far from all that I offer!

What you may not know is that you don't have to be 'sick' to come and see me!

I can also work with you to support your energy levels, immune system function and stress levels through dietary support, nutritional supplementation and lifestyle changes.

I can help get to the bottom of mystery bloating or abdominal cramps, potential or existing nutritional deficiencies and food sensitivities, before they become problematic.

What you eat is the foundation of health, so book an appointment today to find out how you can feel your best through nutrition and herbal medicine!

1) Do you get pain sitting for long periods? 🛋

4) Do you struggle to touch your toes? 🧘‍♀️
(Specific leg stretches will help get you moving like you used to)
