Naturopathic medicine (naturopathy) is a holistic medicine approach used to assess, identify and find solutions to your health concerns and sports performance. We blend our lived experience, formal knowledge, and clinical insights to provide a form of naturopathy and sports nutrition specific to athletes.
Our sports-focused naturopath combines conventional medicine, modern science, and traditional medicine when developing tailored treatments for active individuals.
Sports-focused naturopathy takes into consideration an athlete’s desire to train and perform without taking unnecessary breaks from exercise. Sports nutrition and naturopathic medicine also appreciate the physical demands and nutrient requirements of an athlete that may differ slightly from the general population.
We can advise you on dietary requirements, natural plant-based medicines, high-quality supplements that are Therapeutic Goods Act (TGA) approved, and batch-tested supplements for athletes competing under ASADA and WADA guidelines.
We can collaborate with existing support teams, including trainers, coaches, and medical and allied health practitioners. We also help guide athletes toward finding the right contacts to create a balanced and holistic support team.
Our services are suitable for athletes of all levels, from recreational to elite, including:

Once you’ve booked in we will email you a new patient and consent form which will gather some health history and obtain your consent for us to provide useful information. Instructions on how to find us or a link to your telehealth (online) appointment will also be included in your confirmation email.
If you require an appointment time at a time not shown in our booking system, please contact us directly through our Contact page as we may have some flexibility to accommodate your needs.
