I am a passionate Functional Medicine Nutritionist that believes wholeheartedly in the power of Food as Medicine. My journey began in high school when when my science teacher stood up in front of the class and simply said, "as living beings we are completely made of nutrients". Proteins, vitamins, minerals, fats and carbohydrates make everything from our cells & tissues to our skin & hair (and everything in between!).
So I made the connection - if we didn't eat right, we didn't function right. I began to have a strong interest in all things nutrition and chose to eat well and keep on top of my health. Or so I thought.

Services
I practice Functional Nutritional Medicine. It is all about looking for the cause of health problems, as opposed to treating symptoms with medications. Functional medicine looks at the underlying cause of disease, and takes into account the whole case history and whole person. Pathology results (including functional pathology & gene testing - not always on the GPs list of tests but gives us a more complete picture).
You want to know about (and where to get) the optimal PRE & PRO biotics to help prevent GBS, protect against the negative effects of antibiotics, improve breastfeeding outcomes, optimise bubs microbiome transfer, help prevent allergies, etc. Initial Consultation ($300 > 90 minutes) + 2 follow ups ($150 > up to 45 mins each) can be used at any stage of pregnancy / post-partum / infancy depending on your needs.
The First 1000 days is the time from conception to 2yrs old and is a crucial time for making new humans! Our current Maternity Care System is fraught with problems and many mums don't get the support they need in this crucial time. Gut Health & Microbiome is NEXT LEVEL important at this stage (as you pass YOUR microbiome onto your BABY & this it whats drives ALL developmental outcomes!)
The intention behind my talks & presentations is to educate and inspire the audience - whomever they are. I'm super passionate about learning & gaining knowledge and over the years I've spent countless hours researching, reading, doing post-grad courses, attending seminars & conferences etc and I love sharing what I've learned.

I have been seeing Emma for 6 weeks now. I started seeing her because I wanted help, guidance and education in regards to developing a healthy diet. I have gotten so much more. Emma has helped me acknowledge, deal with and shift past trauma and introduced me to some wonderful self help exercises, like cold water swimming- wonderful experience. If you are looking for a professional holistic practitioner with a kind heart and a ready smile, then Emma is perfect.

Thanks to Emma I have my little boy back. After starting Childcare, his immune system was totally shot. Chest infections, croup and many scripts for antibiotics, all contributed to him constantly being sick and not himself at all. Emma talked through things with me, prescribed products and dietary changes and within a week my little boy was better. Emma even took care of me as well!

Has been the most wonderful support for my families gut health, diet and nutritional needs. In addition to this her First 1000 days professional learning program has been so valuable in building my knowledge and supporting the families that I work with. I recommend Emma to my clients and friends without hesitation.

Emma is an exceptionally kind and caring person. She regularly keeps in contact between appointments to check on your health. Emma is very accommodating in terms of appointment days and times. I lover her holistic approach which focuses on nutrition and supplementation to address physiological issues and meditation/visualisation techniques to support stress, trauma and emotional wellbeing. I would highly recommend Emma Park to anyone looking for a nutritionist.

Emma was the support and guidance that I needed at a very difficult time in my life. My health issues ranged from heading towards an auto immune disease, stress eating and living an unbalanced lifestyle. Thanks to Emma, I was able to get back on track and I now feel more educated about what is good for my body and what isn’t. Highly recommend Emma!

I have been seeing Emma for a number of years for a myriad of health conditions and I have always been incredibly inspired by her depth of knowledge. The best thing about her is that she's real, and always understands where you are coming from as a patient and makes her treatments achievable. Couldn't recommend her more if you need to get your health on track.

I found Emma Park Nutritionist to have real and tailored help for my circumstances. I felt comfortable with the 'level of platforms' she could bring to the treatment. The tailored approach was a real add value. The follow up support has been extremely valuable. It's up to me to make the changes and choices, but Emma certainly helps with expert advice, and a bit of magic in lighting up pathways.

I didn't realise how much my poor gut health was affecting me until I underwent treatment with Emma and now feel amazing. I was probably a bit sceptical before but decided to take the plunge and book an appointment, after trying so many different things and getting so confused with all the info online. The knowledge and insight Emma has given me is invaluable. Emma is always on hand in between appointments if I need advice. I have recommended Emma to a friend who is pregnant and to my Dad, who were both also impressed. I can't recommend Emma highly enough. Her sensible and thorough approach to
