To provide the tailored nutritional advice for your unique needs
Naturopathy integrates modern scientific knowledge and current health research with traditional natural healing methods, emphasising the belief that nature is the most effective healer, including dietary and lifestyle modifications and focusses on identifying the cause of illness, treating the whole person and not just their disease, educating patients and that prevention is better than cure.
Naturopathic Nutrition implements these principles in the context of dietary therapy, embracing the traditional naturopathic perspective on nutrition. It recognises that individuals respond differently to nutrients, that whole foods and herbs offer benefits greater than their individual parts, and that the selection, preparation, and consumption of food play a crucial role in the healing process.
Naturopathic nutritional therapists provide bespoke nutritional plans tailored to an individual’s needs, guidance on optimal food preparation techniques, lifestyle tips to enhance the effectiveness of dietary therapy and aim to support patients with chronic illnesses, minor health issues, or those seeking to enhance their overall health and well-being.
A functional medicine approach is taken, which looks at addressing things like permeable gut (leaky gut), gut dysbiosis (an imbalance in the beneficial and destructive bacteria found in our intestines), oestrogen excess or other hormone imbalances, poor toxin clearance & liver detoxification, improved methylation (important for the cardiovascular system, neurotransmitter production, DNA repair, correct hormone detoxification and improving chronic fatigue) blood-sugar and insulin imbalances and poor stress responses because of a dysfunctional hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. They provide recommendations on nutrition, nutraceuticals, orthomolecular supplements, herbal remedies and lifestyle practices.
Naturopathic Nutrition highlights the importance of whole and organic foods as medicine and this along with returning to chemical free unprocessed food, is seen as an effective approach to addressing many common health concerns.

Finding clarity amidst complexity
Often it is so difficult to unpack the reasons for feeling unwell, and you are overwhelmed with all the conflicting advice on the internet. This is why the functional medicine paradigm, which looks at all the possible predisposing factors, triggers and contributing factors, is so effective at tying all the pieces together.
- Everyone’s situation is unique – so a unique approach is taken
- Conventional techniques may have failed repetitively because they treat the symptoms and do not address the cause
