The importance of a good night's sleep is often undervalued in today's society where we become easily disconnected from our body's natural biorhythms. Apart from replenishing energy levels and promoting relaxation, many important biological functions depend on recuperative sleep. Numerous health conditions are exacerbated by poor sleep such as mental illness, cardiovascular disease and even unwanted weight gain.
Health patterns established in childhood often carry through to adult life. So looking after our children's diet and lifestyle now will not only help our children reach their greatest potential, it will also support them today in being happy, healthy children.
In today's world where environmental pollution, modern technology, poor diet and stress are placing a greater strain on all of us, especially children, a Naturopath's ability to apply natural methods of healing is becoming increasingly important.

In today's' society where environmental pollution, digestive issues, poor food choices and weight gain are placing greater strain on our bodies, individualised detoxification programs are becoming more and more relevant.
The aim of an effective Naturopathic detoxification program is to improve digestive function, reduce systemic acidity, decrease the body's workload and support efficient detoxification pathways via the liver, urinary and lymphatic systems.The end result is greater energy and vitality, weight loss if it is relevant and brighter skin, eyes and hair.

Kath has been a godsend to me! I have been seeing Kath for the last 4.5 months and I am sure I will continue to do so for a long time to come. She was so lovely, welcoming and made me feel totally comfortable in talking about what was going on with me. She really takes her time to listen and asks lots of questions to make sure she has a real understanding of your lifestyle and any symptoms etc you may be dealing with. The results I have had in the last few months have been amazing and I’m so grateful! You can tell that Kath genuinely cares about her patients and is happy when she hears about

When I was struggling to get clear answers from many doctors and specialists, Kath was the only one who could put all the pieces together and got me back on track to good health and energy.
She has a profoundly deep understanding of the human body and surprises me with more knowledge every time I visit. She looks at the full picture of your health instead of offering bandaid solutions or long-term medications (like many practitioners unfortunately do).
Consultations with Kath feel like a visit with a friend and I'm both happy and sad that my health has reached the point that I'll no longer need

I have been seeing Kathleen for around 6 years and she has been the most knowledgeable, genuine and caring naturopath I have ever met! She has helped me immensely throughout the years getting to know my health inside out and also just getting to know me as a person- which makes it so much more comfortable when trying to manage & overcome health issues.
I highly recommend Kath - she is truly the most amazing naturopath with a tonne of knowledge/research to support her recommendations with herbal supplements. I feel so lucky to have someone like her to guide & coach me on my health journey!

Kathleen is the best naturopath that I've seen over the years. She has a science-based approach and is extremely thorough, to ensure that she can diagnose and treat the real underlying causes of my health issues. I continue to work with her on things like post-surgery inflammation, sleeping issues, and my ongoing general immunity. I have gone from having constant colds and flu every 6 weeks, to being sick just briefly maybe once a year. She has a very calm and reassuring personality. Highly recommended!

Kathleen helped restore me to full health when I thought that nothing could be done. She is so knowledgeable and genuine and I felt completely looked after and cared for when my condition was at it's worst. She knew exactly what needed to be done and put a successful plan of action together within my first consultation. I highly recommend Kathleen and will continue to see her for future health related advice or concerns .

Kathleen has cared for my whole family over the last few years for various health issues. Her knowledge is extensive, and is coupled with a genuine care for client health and wellbeing. She takes the time to thoroughly go through health issues and goals, and suggests treatments and plans that are realistic and achievable. An appointment with her is always a lovely experience as she has such a positive and compassionate approach.

It is my pleasure to write a quick review of Kathleen. I didn’t meet Kathleen as a patient but as a person who was looking for her advice on entering the field myself. Kathleen had never met me before but she gladly took time out her day to help me. Kathleen surely has a deep expertise in her field but what came across most was her underlying caring for people and a want to help them (including me, a non paying customer). People like Kathleen are rare and I wouldn’t think twice in recommending her.
