NATUROPATH SERVICES
Success in life starts with a focus on health
Nutrition
We believe in using food as medicine; which is why nutrition is a core focus of our naturopath services.
Unfortunately, our modern diets combined with our lack of time mean we aren’t getting the nutrition we need to thrive. And poor diet ultimately leads to poor health and disease. Fortunately, even small changes can lead to significant health improvements.
As part of our naturopath services, any nutritional deficiencies are assessed with simple dietary changes recommended that are unique to each individual. At times, certain deficiencies may require additional supplemental therapy such as minerals and vitamins.
Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine is a treatment modality we use in our naturopath services using the inherent healing properties of plants as medicine, and is increasingly being validated by current scientific research and published literature.
In Australia, we are fortunate to have access to heavily regulated, high quality herbal medicines that consider not only clinical experience of practitioners, but the ancient wisdom derived from centuries of use.
At Performance in Health we use herbal medicine for both acute and chronic conditions, and individually prescribe based on the presenting symptoms and the underlying causes unique to each individual.

Functional Pathology & Gut Testing
As part of our naturopath treatments, we may call for specialised pathology & GUT testing to further investigate the underlying cause of various health problems.
We use these tests for issues such as gastrointestinal function, parasitic infections, hormonal imbalances, liver function, nutritional requirements and toxic metal analysis.
By delving deeper, we are able to treat not only the symptoms of your discomfort, but the underlying cause; leading to improved wellbeing for years to come.

Easy Slow-Cooker Chicken Thigh & Sweet Potato
This recipe is one of the tastiest meals you will eat, trust me. It is one of my “go-to” recipes when the day ahead is full of client appointments and where there is little time for dinner preparation. As an early bird type, just like 40% of you who function...

As a naturopath, I meet so many people in my clinic who are genuinely focussed on improving their health and believe wholeheartedly that their morning smoothie is the healthiest meal of their day. But is it? Sadly, many smoothies are not the “golden child” of...
