The prolonged fatigue, mental fog, and overall sense of unwellness seen in individuals with Long COVID share a remarkable resemblance to Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Both conditions are characterised by persistent symptoms that defy conventional explanations and may linger for months, if not years. 

These symptoms are:- Persistent fatigue, exhaustion and lack of energy, brain fog and cognitive issues, immune system dysfunction, muscle aches and joint pain, gut health and microbiome imbalances, hormonal imbalances or hormone dysregulation. 

As a dedicated Women's Health & Digestive Health Naturopath, I specialise in helping businesswomen who are experiencing the ups and downs of perimenopause and menopause.

Whether you are experiencing digestive issues, such as Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), or Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) or hormonal imbalances, I take a holistic approach. I provide personalised care to empower women to achieve optimal health and well-being.

Did you know that your gut microbiome plays a crucial role in your overall health and well-being?  That's right! Your gut is home to trillions of bacteria that impact everything from digestion and nutrient absorption to immune function and mood regulation. 

Gut microbiome testing is one test that I love to prescribe for my clients, especially if they have been searching (Dr Google) or working with other health professionals for answers and not getting to the bottom of their health issues.

For most of us 2023 has been a year of surviving and not thriving as we have come out of our COVID years with a lot of uncertainty, fear and caution. What used to serve us in the past no longer cuts it for us now.

Most of us have embraced our rediscovered freedom and have travelled again, enjoyed celebrating with our friends and family at restaurants and live concerts. Some of us have already begun rebooting our health journey and searching for more in the natural health space to satisfy their curiosity.

This is quiet natural for women who are in their Autumn years, our perimenopausal years. Some fear this time of our lives and some are really embracing this transition into menopause - our Winter years and then post menopause - our second Spring.

Detoxification is the body's natural process of eliminating toxins and waste to keep you feeling your best. This is done by our lymphatic system (spleen, thymus and lymph nodes) along with our livers, lungs and kidneys. But sometimes, our bodies can use a little extra support to handle the challenges of modern living. It is important to seek the help and assistance of a naturopath as we have been trained through our degrees to support a healthy way of detoxing.
