With the closing of our Strathpine Healthshop, I've been fortunate enough to move my clinic to the Healthshop in Northlakes Westfield. I'm here every Friday and 1 Saturday a month. Contact me directly or call the shop to book an appointment 🙂🌻

Joint pain, soft tissue damage and muscle soreness can all be debilitating conditions that may reduce your quality of life. Oral supplements can be effective though they do take time to work. Fusion Pain Relief Gel is a non-greasy formula that's readily absorbed and is a great alternative for faster pain relief.

White turmeric: anti-inflammatory and promotes healthy circulation relieving symptoms of soft tissue damage
Arnica: promotes healing and relieves symptoms of muscle soreness
Menthol: reduces pain receptor activity leading to a decrease in joint and muscle pain
Magnesium: promotes muscle relaxation for pain relief

This is a product I've personally use to help ease the pain of my shoulder muscle tear and continue to use whenever I have an ache or pain.

Fusion Pain Relief Gel can be found at your local Healthshop

Spotlight Sunday. GutRight by ATP Science was formulated for some serious gut repair. What makes this wholefood product different is it's a Modbiotic formula. But what the hell does that mean?? Well in their own ATP words:
'Modbiotic is a complex of polyphenols, polysaccharides, glucans, lectins and other compounds that modulate microbes toward an anti-inflammatory environment. Modbiotic are naturally found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and spices.'
This promotes a healthy gut lining and supports a healthy microbiome. So if you feel like your gut could use some loving try GutRight in either original, cranberry, raspberry or Choc chai 😊🌱

Recycling those blister packs just got a little easier now that Flora & Fauna joined forces with TerraCycle!!! With daily use of Medicinal herbs, nutritional supplements, medications, lozenges, etc they can accumulate fast, but why can't they simply be thrown into the recycling bin 🤔 Blister packs are classed as 'Rigid Plastic' due to being a mixture of plastic and foil which can be hard to separate making them difficult to be recycled. But in these modern times, modern solutions have made it simple and easy to recycle almost anything. Read their post to see how simple it can be to reduce your carbon foot print 💊🌱💊🌱

One question I get asked often is what can people use as a healthier alternative to coffee 🤔☕ Chicory Root Coffee tastes like your traditional cupper but doesn't have the caffeine kick and has many other health benefits.
A) Improves Gut Health: Chicory contains a good amount of the insoluble fibre 'Inulin' a prebiotic fibre that feeds the probiotics (aka good bacteria) in the Gastrointestinal tract. This improvement in microbiome can lead to improved digestion, regulates bowel motions, promotes proper assimilation and absorption of Nutrients, strengthens the Immune system and aids in blood sugar regulation (useful for diabetics).
B) Cognitive Health: Chicory contains Vitamin B6 and Manganese two key Nutrients in Brain function and development
C) Nutritional boost: containing beta- carotene vitamin C, Folate, phosphorous and potassium.
D) Improves Skin health: said to boost collagen formation, smoothing wrinkles, hydrates the face and topically it soothes swollen and/or inflamed skin and improves overall complexion.

Next time you want a coffee taste without the coffee hit, try a Chicory coffee like Bonvit Instant Chicory Beverage (found at your local Healthshop or can be ordered in)

Product review: EverEco Eco-friendly Razor.

The Rose Gold Safety Razor is worth every penny. It looks beautiful and does exactly what it says: a close shave minus the plastic waste. As the blade can easily be removed and the replacement blades are easy to hide (incased in a small packet) it's safe to have in a house with children as its not a temptation to play with unlike other razors that have colourful plastic handles. Help reduce your plastic waste and purchase a reusable Razor 🌏🌱

*I brought this from the Healthshop at Northlakes. Head to your local Healthshop to see stock availability
