Did you know that the most common human disease is the common cold? The average person may suffer with up to 5 colds per year.

The beauty of Naturopathy is that we acknowledge that each patient is an individual with different genetics, different health needs and living in different environments. The main premise of holistic care is that “no one size fits all”. This concept is why a diet or a pill that a friend finds amazing may not have the same affect for you. It also acknowledges that as your body changes over the years, so too do your individual needs. And for this reason a Naturopath is best equipped to analyse all of these elements of your health to determine an individualised treatment plan and lifestyle strategy in order to achieve your health goals effectively.
