The Natural Health Clinic

The Natural Health Clinic I use muscle testing to help identify your hidden blocks to health & wellbeing. These blocks may be Please look at my website for further information.

At The Natural Health Clinic I use muscle testing to find the areas of weakness in the body. This is achieved by using muscle testing to perform a full body scan which includes all organs, glands, joints & any areas of pain by gently touching reflexes on the surface of the body. Through muscle testing we then identify which of these weakened areas is the priority to deal with & what could be the underlying cause of this weakness using the 6 most common stressors. What are the six most common stressors?

1) Food allergies
2) Immune challenges -fungal, viral, bacterial & parasites
3) Heavy metals
4) Chemical toxicity
5) Scars & other interference fields - these block energy flow
6) Nutritional deficiencies - the organ/gland is lacking nutrients for optimal functioning

Based on these findings we use muscle testing to design a individualised nutritional program using natural organic supplements & lifestyle changes. When the underlying causes are identified & removed the body is then more able to heal itself. https://biotrace.co.nz/

🩷 I saw this quote recently and thought how true it is:

“The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it.” – Flannery O’Connor

🌟 You might not like what your body is telling you —
but that doesn’t make it any less true.
And I see this all the time.

Clients come in tired, bloated, constipated, foggy-brained.
Their hormones are all over the place.
Anxiety’s creeping in.
Sleep is patchy at best.

Some of them are eating really well —
organic oats for breakfast, sourdough bread at lunch, homemade meals, low sugar, no processed food.

On paper, it looks excellent.
But their body tells a very different story.

🩷 Because sometimes, even healthy food doesn’t mean it’s right for you.

👉 Sometimes it’s gluten.
👉 Sometimes it’s dairy.
👉 Sometimes it’s coffee.
👉 Sometimes it’s the thing you love the most…
👉 And sometimes it’s the thing you least expect.

Your body doesn’t care if it’s sourdough, sprouted, fermented, organic — or soaked in fairy dust 🙃
If it’s triggering inflammation, symptoms, or stress in your system, then it’s not working for you.

One client said it perfectly:

👉“I don’t want to give up gluten. But I also can’t keep going on like this.”

This is the key moment.
When the pain of staying stuck becomes louder than the resistance to change.

Of course she didn’t want to remove gluten.
But she wanted her life back more. 💛

🌟 Yes — it’s uncomfortable to change habits you’ve had for years.
And yes — you might not like what your body reveals through testing
(Who really wants to give up their comfort foods?)🤬

But you have to decide:

👉 What do you want more — short-term comfort,
or long-term health (and better food tolerance down the road)?

You can keep doing what you’re doing — but you already know how that story ends.
Your symptoms will get worse.
You’ll be further down the road of dis-ease.

That’s definitely one choice, and it is a choice.

Or — you make the decision to do something different.
To get clear on what you want, and take the steps toward that result. 💚

🩷Because this is the only body you have to live in — for the rest of your life. 🩷

🌟 If you’re stuck, exhausted, and confused about what to do to actually get well…
then it’s time to stop guessing.

In a Nutrition Response Testing session, I help you figure out what your symptoms are trying to tell you — and build a personalised nutritional and dietary plan that works for your body.

❌ Not Google’s idea of healthy.
❌ Not what worked for your friend.
✅ Just your truth — what your body’s been asking for.

And if you're ready to make the changes — no matter how uncomfortable they feel at first —
then you're the kind of client I love working with. 💚

✨Most people think they’re doing okay nutritionally because they eat “pretty well.”

👉But the truth is, our soil isn’t what it used to be.
👉Our food isn’t what it used to be.
👉And our digestion certainly isn’t what it used to be.

🩷 This is why I use personalised clinical muscle testing to assess where your body is actually depleted—and what it really needs to heal.

You don’t need more guesswork. You need answers and a plan.🩷

🩵 What do prawns, cucumbers, and avocado have in common?

They’re protein-rich, gut-friendly, and surprisingly satisfying—especially when your body’s asking for something cooling and clean.

🍃 A client recently came in feeling unusually tired, a bit sore in the lower back/kidney area, and just… not quite right.

It wasn’t about needing more supplements or a drastic change.

👉 Her body was letting her know that gluten had crept back in—just a little at first, but then more often.

And her body was not HAPPY!

Food is feedback. And the good news is, your body often tells you what’s not working—when you know how to listen.

🌿 So here’s one of my go-to Gluten Free recipes that many clients love🩷

🥑 Creamy Cucumber Prawn & Avocado Salad😍

🍽 Serves: 4 (main meal portions)
Perfect for warmer days when you want something light, refreshing, and protein-rich.

🌿 Ingredients

2 large telegraph cucumbers, thinly sliced

1 punnet (~250 g) cherry tomatoes, halved

½ small red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

1 medium ripe avocado, cubed

2 Tbsp fresh dill or flat-leaf parsley, chopped

✨ Dressing

½ cup full-fat Greek yoghurt (or use coconut yoghurt if dairy intolerant)

1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice

½ tsp garlic powder (or 1 small garlic clove, grated)

Sea salt & cracked black pepper, to taste

🍋 Method

Combine prawns, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, onion, and avocado in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients until smooth.

Pour dressing over salad and gently toss to coat.

Top with fresh herbs.

Chill for 15–20 minutes before serving.

✅ Save this recipe for when you need something fresh, fast, and YUM.

✨ Scars: The Hidden Blocks to Healing You Might Never Suspect

🔹Not every scar causes issues. Some may look harmless, even forgotten. But scars from surgeries, piercings, old injuries, tattoos, burns or mole removals may interfere with nerve flow and circulation, creating blocks that stop the body from fully healing.

🔹Today a client told me she never thought her caesarean scar was a problem, as it had never bothered her. However, after using a simple technique to help clear the interference her scar was causing, she commented:

🩷 “It feels so much softer now. I didn’t realise how bumpy it was before. Now it’s smoother and it feels much better.”😍

Sometimes, healing is about uncovering what’s been overlooked.

👉 If you’re wondering whether an old scar could be part of your health picture, book in for a full evaluation and we’ll test to see.

✨ Why do I need supplements if I eat well?✨
That’s what a long-time client asked me just yesterday.

🍃 That’s a great question—because she does eat well.
Minimal sugar, whole foods, quality protein, lots of veg. She’s doing a lot right.

But what most people don’t realise...

💚 Your diet might be great—but what about your soil?
60 years ago, our soils were richer in minerals like zinc, selenium, chromium, and others.
Today, that’s no longer the case.

👉 NZ and Aussie soils are especially low in selenium—which means even good food might not give you what your body truly needs.

🩵 Then there’s absorption.
Even if you’re eating the right nutrients, is your digestive system actually absorbing them?

That depends on the person.
If you’ve had gut issues, inflammation, stress, or hormonal shifts—your absorption may not be as efficient as you think.

💜 And some people simply need more.
More than the “recommended daily intake” (which, by the way, is just the amount needed to avoid disease—not to feel fantastic).

A woman in perimenopause has different needs than she did in her 20s.
Someone recovering from burnout or inflammation may need more support than usual.

🍃 For example, during pollen season, there’s a noticeable increase in the need for selenium.

It’s calming to the immune system, supports your thyroid, and helps your liver clear out what it needs to.

👉 But again—it’s often missing, even in people who eat really well.

It just means your body might need more support than food alone is offering right now.

✅ The goal is always to give your body what it specifically needs to function at its best—based on where you’re at now.

🩷 If you’ve ever thought:
"Something feels off. I’m missing something—but I’ve no idea what it is…”
Maybe your body is simply saying:
"I need a bit more help."

💬 If that sounds like you, comment below or message me privately.
I can help you figure out what support may be missing.

💫 Feeling knocked down with one cold after another? Here’s one of the most helpful things you can do…

🩷 When your immune system’s already worn out — from back-to-back bugs, stress, or just pushing through — the food you put in matters more than ever.

🩷 This isn’t about eating perfectly. It’s about giving your body more of what it needs to actually rebuild.

🩷 Eat simple, warming, nourishing foods.

👉 Here are some easy immune-supportive meal ideas I often recommend to clients:

🔹 A couple of poached eggs on leftover greens from last night’s dinner — I had mine with broccoli and Brussels sprouts this morning, and a shaving of Parmesan.

🔹 An omelette loaded with spinach, capsicum, and fresh herbs — quick to make, easy to digest.

🔹 A free-range roast chicken from the supermarket (preferably without added flavours) + a bag of baby leaf salad and your favourite dressing. Done.

🔹 Too tired to cook? Make one good batch of veggie soup. It’ll last days, and your body will thank you for it.

🧐 Here’s a simple recipe to get you started:

✨Big Immune-Supportive Veggie Soup✨
(Chunky or blended — you choose)

🔹 Sauté chopped onion, garlic, celery and carrot in olive oil
🔹 Add chopped pumpkin and a can of tomatoes
🔹 Pour in stock to cover, simmer until veggies are soft
🔹 Stir in some leafy greens near the end
🔹 Optional: add a can of drained lentils or some leftover chicken for extra protein
🔹 Want it creamy? Add a dash of cream, yoghurt or coconut cream

✨ This soup gives your body an easy-to-digest mix of nutrients, warmth, and hydration — especially when you’re tired and don’t feel like eating much.

💫 You don’t have to eat loads. But if you’ve been run down, what you do eat needs to count.

🩷 Be kind to your immune system — it’s working hard for you.

🩷 Feeling better… then sick again? Here’s what your immune system might be trying to tell you

👉 Seeing cold after cold roll through your house (or body)? It's not just bad luck.

💫 It’s a pattern I’m seeing a lot in my office right now—end of winter, early spring.
The weather’s erratic. One day warm, the next wet and cold.
Pollen's on the rise. And your immune system? It’s working overtime.

👉 So here’s what happens:
You get sick. You support yourself — vitamin C, maybe some zinc or echinacea.
Then the cough settles, the energy picks up a little... and you stop.
This is common — but it doesn’t mean your body’s ready to stop.

💫 Your immune system just got through a battle — and it used up a lot of resources doing it.
Not just to fight the virus, but to clean up the inflammation, mucus, fatigue, and fog that follows.

💫 I’ve had quite a few clients lately who got over one virus, felt fine for a few days—then went down again.
Often, their body was still trying to catch up.

👉 It’s like finishing a marathon and expecting to sprint again straight away.🥴
Your body needs time — and fuel — to recover.

💫 That means when you stop all your support the moment the cough goes…
you might be leaving your system depleted.
Still vulnerable.
And then, boom — you catch the next thing going around.😵‍💫🤧

🩷 So how do you help your body recover fully — not just survive the virus?🩷

👉👉 Support your immune system after illness, not just during it.
What I often find when I test clients post-illness is:
➡️ They still need some support — just at a different level or dose.
Your body is still in repair mode, even if you're “not coughing anymore.”

💫 And your diet? That matters more than ever right now.

If you’ve been knocked down with one cold after another, your diet needs to support your recovery.

💫 This is not the time to lean on comfort foods like bread, cereals, cakes, biscuits, or chocolate.
And it's a good time to ease off alcohol too — your liver’s got enough to do.

💫 What helps instead? Simple, nourishing foods your body can use to rebuild.

Here’s what I recommend:
✅ Warming soups – still perfect for this time of year
✅ Good quality protein – fish, meat, chicken, eggs, lentils, nuts, seeds (if you tolerate them)
✅ Loads of vegetables – especially leafy greens and a rainbow of colour
✅ Healthy fats – olive oil, avocado, coconut cream, nuts, seeds, ghee

💫 This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about giving your body the tools it needs to repair and build resilience again.

🩷 Be kind to your immune system. It’s doing its best for you.😍
And if it feels like your body’s not bouncing back the way it should… it might be time to ask why.

👉👉 PS: I’ll share more about how to build a simple immune-supportive meal in an upcoming post – keep an eye out.

🍃 Your Food Reactions May Not Be Forever — Even If They’ve Been Around for Years

✨If you’ve been avoiding certain foods for a long time — maybe even years — here’s something you may want to know:

Sometimes, as the body heals, your tolerance naturally improves.
But other times… it doesn’t.
No matter what you've tried, your body stays stuck in the same reactive pattern❗

👉That’s where food desensitisation can make a real difference.

🌀 In simple terms:
We’re helping to reset how your body responds to certain foods — like eggs, dairy, fruits, any food really.

Lately, I’ve seen quite a few people reintroduce foods they thought were gone forever — like yogurt, cheese, fruits… even eggs.

Their diets are finally expanding.🥳
And with that comes less restriction.
Less stress.
More freedom.
And a much easier time eating and enjoying food again.🩷

👉 It’s not just about food either.

I’ve also supported people who react to things you can’t really avoid — like pollens, grasses, dust mites, or pet dander.

✨If you’ve been told you just have to live with it — I want you to know that may not be true.🩷

✨ The body can change.
✨ Reactions can shift.
✨ And healing doesn’t always mean avoiding everything forever.

💬 Curious if food or environmental desensitisation might be right for you?
Send me a message

🩷 You deserve a way of eating that feels freeing — not fearful.

🩷 Healing isn’t instant — and that’s a good thing.”

It can feel frustrating when your symptoms don’t shift overnight.
But the reality is:

🌿 Healing happens in layers.
🌿 It takes as long as it takes.
🌿 And each shift is your body showing it can change.

🚫 Getting rid of a symptom quickly doesn’t equal real healing.
That’s usually just suppression.

✨ Real healing is slower, deeper, and worth it.
Because it’s not about masking symptoms — it’s about resetting the body and feeling great again.

So if you’re on this journey, remind yourself:
Your body isn’t beyond hope.
It’s recalibrating.
And sometimes the quietest changes can be the most powerful ones.🩷
