Our health practitioners specialise in the treatment of the following:

Allergies/Food Sensitivities

Allergies harm the immune system and eventually set off a slew of health disorders, including autoimmune diseases, weight gain, arthritis, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), to name a few.

Anxiety, Stress & Depression

Trauma, worries and fears are just among the factors that trigger anxiety. It often manifests with headaches, chest pains, fatigue, poor concentration and insomnia, among other symptoms. 

Autoimmune Diseases

An autoimmune disease is a condition where the immune system attacks its own cells, tissues or organs. It could be a result of genetics or exposure to toxins like heavy metals, moulds, and infections such as Candida. Some examples of autoimmune diseases are lupus, psoriasis, thyroiditis-Hashimoto’s and vitiligo.

Cardiovascular Disease 

This condition is developed when plaque builds up inside the arteries,which can lead to a heart attack, stroke or even death. It can be caused by many factors, including genetics, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, smoking, heavy metals, diabetes, or even by taking birth control pills.

Heartburn or Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) Indigestion

GORD causes a burning sensation in the throat, frequent burping, and abdominal bloating accompanied by pain. This is due to gastric juices coming back from the stomach to the esophagus. We prescribe herbal medicine,supplements, life style and diet modifications with nutritional advice. 

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

This is a gastrointestinal problem that causes bloating, stomach cramps and alternating constipation and diarrhea. It may be caused by genetic factors, parasites,bacteria,viral infections stress, or food intolerances.

Detoxification

Overexposure to heavy metals is toxic to the body and may lead to autoimmune diseases, liver and kidney diseases, Crohn’s disease, and a range of other disorders. Research shows that when the body lacks certain minerals, it utilises the heavy metals it has been exposed to.

Fluid/Water Retention

Excessive water retention in the body causes oedema. The lymphatic system is responsible for carrying fluid containing waste products from the tissues down to the lymph nodes. Unfortunately, when there are obstructions along the way and the lymph vessels are unable to carry fluid to the lymph nodes, this results in swelling that could lead to an array of health disorders.

Weight Management

Many people try so hard to lose weight only to gain it back. Our health practitioners can help you achieve your ideal weight by helping you identify what’s causing you to gain weight. We employ nutritional medicine and functional imbalances, assess your diet and lifestyle, recommend an exercise program that suits you best, and help you establish healthy eating habits.

Hormonal Imbalances

Having imbalanced hormones interferes with the normal function of your body and mind, which could result in a serious health condition. It may be caused by a toxic environment or an unhealthy lifestyle. Addressing this issue prevents it from escalating into a serious condition like breast cancer.

Pain Management and Mobility Restoration

Arthritis, neck pain, menstrual pain, tendonitis and migraine restrict your range of movements and hinder you from performing your day-to-day tasks. Let us help you relieve pain and restore your mobility through integrative medicine. This approach consists of a health screening, an electro-stimulation (without needles), bioptron, low level laser, and an acoustic wave treatment. Low level laser is an excellent way to improve any muscular-skeletal pain and inflammation.

I have been using various modalities in relieving pain for 30 years but I found that the combination of  low level lasers and electro stimulation of a number of points on the body to be very effective and lasting.
