Brisbane Naturopaths & Wellness Centre

I started my career as a registered nurse in 1970, specialising in Paediatrics. My passion for providing high quality health care led me to study naturopathy. After completing my bachelor degree, my focus and passion led me to concentrate on the GUT and BRAIN connection. My mission is to restore your gut microbiome to a more natural state to help maintain good health.

Our service is all about your health! We strive to provide quality health care and help you achieve your health goals. Our practitioners have a long history in the health care industry and have developed significant clinical expertise which is available to you to help with your health.

Our biome, the life within our personal ecosystem, is missing many of the organisms that were present in our ancestors, but which are still living today in many people in less developed countries.Our mission is to restore your biome to a more natural state to help maintain good health. Denise provides HDC, a higher organism (a helminth), which helps complete your intestinal ecosystem and provides diversity that bacterial probiotics alone cannot.

Naturopathy is medicine as nature intended. We use products made from plants (herbal medicine) and nutrients (nutritional medicine) to assist in the restoration and maintenance of optimal health. We also include dietary and lifestyle advice as both of these have an impact on your health. We practise evidence-based medicine.

The average adult carries around 2kg of bacteria in their gut whose role is to keep our bodies healthy both physically and mentally. If the bacteria is damaged, or not operating correctly, it can affect your entire body, including functions of the brain. GAPS is a condition, which corrects the connection between the functions of the digestive system and the brain.
