Our Family Health Clinic
After many years of practising out of a small space we finally got our clinic established in 2015. We have one of the largest dispensaries in Queensland which enables us to recommend the most appropriate supplements to our clients without being limited to only one or two practitioner brands. We have worked together as practitioners for what seems like a lifetime with some of us knowing each other for as long as 15 years, and although we may have different ways of practising, we all share the same philosophies when it comes to health. This is a very important prerequisite when we invite new practitioners to join our clinic.

FAQ’s
Yes. If your private health cover includes extras such as Naturopathy you will be able to claim a rebate on your consultation fee. It may not include rebates on supplements or laboratory tests.
Naturopathy is based on finding the root cause of sickness. We look at your medical and health history, diet, tests results and make use of traditional diagnostic methods including facial, nail and tongue analysis, iridology and kinesiology.
Even though we look at symptomatic relief, finding the cause of your health issue is an essential part of helping you feel better in the long term.
We pride ourselves on developing individualized treatment plans based on all your information, taking your nutrigenomics into account (if this information is available). We are not interested in putting you on protocols. We are interested in getting you better. Our practitioners do a tremendous amount of research in their free time to become better at what they do so that they can provide you with better care.
You may be advised to change your diet so your body can heal faster. For some this can be a challenge but you will be given handouts and other resources to make it easier. We will work with you to make lifestyle changes at a pace that is practical for you.
This really depends on your state of health and the outcome you are looking for. We usually recommend having at least one follow-up appointment after your initial consultation to monitor your progress and make changes to your treatment program, if necessary.
We have many clients who like to see us on a regular basis to touch base and to get help with common conditions including colds, hayfever, indigestion, sleeping problems, stress, etc.
Naturopathy is a great form of preventative medicine so you don’t get sick in the first place.
