My Body Balance Treatments and how this can support your healing journey

Are you are experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, brain fog, poor concentration or sleep issues? Are you seeking holistic pathways towards your mental health. In a lot of cases, heavy metals were one of the underlying causes of my clients mood and digestive disorders.

Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) - Balancing Body Chemistry
Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) is an analytical test that measure the mineral composition of hair. It is regarded by many doctors, naturopaths and nutritionists as one of the most valuable screening tools available in everyday and preventative health care.

Lets make 2024 the year to embrace wellness
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.
