ABOUT ELLE
NATUROPATH & NUTRITIONIST BHSc
Hi, I'm Elle and what a pleasure to welcome you here!
I am an accredited naturopath (BHSc). I am also a big time tea drinker and cheese lover.
I discovered the world of complementary medicine after my own journey with inflammatory bowel disease. Read my story here.
Years later, I experienced another unexpected health challenge. The birth of my daughter was traumatic and a complex recovery followed. After navigating postnatal depression, I realised how sacred the postpartum period is for every mother. So much emphasis can get placed on the baby, that the mother's needs often go overlooked. I realised how vitally important it is to have a strong, intelligent and empathetic advocate who can guide and champion the health needs of the mother when she has no energy to do it herself.
My own health challenges have given me a deep empathy and understanding for those navigating ill health. I have dedicated the past 6 years to educating myself on the wonders of our bodies and the best ways we can heal and serve them.
WHAT IS
NATUROPATHY?
Naturopathy is an holistic approach to healthcare, founded on the belief the body has an innate ability to heal itself. It recognises the uniqueness of each person and uses the power of nature to heal and nourish the body.
Treatment is tailored to your individual needs and commonly incorporates herbal and botanical medicine, clinical nutrition and dietary and lifestyle advice.
I am passionate about merging traditional naturopathic knowledge with current scientific research to create treatment plans that are evidence based, as well as being realistic and practical to each client.
I know how empowering it is to have a supportive practitioner you can trust. My focus is to provide a nurturing and supportive environment so you are able to become the healthiest and happiest version of your self.
The state of your health matters to me.
