NATUROPATH GOLD COAST - INTEGRATED WELLNESS CLINIC
Service description
Please allow me to introduce myself and our second home, our clinic, our mission.
Integrated Wellness Clinic was founded by myself and my gorgeous husband, Adam, when we felt that the Sunshine Coast needed a clinic that offered multiple modalities that addressed all aspects of wellness, with a primary focus being on Naturopathic medicine. I felt as though there was a gap on the coast, that we had limited complementary therapists who offered evidence based practices and were wanting to connect with the medical world. As I whole heartedly believe our health care system needs both models.
My own journey of healing is what has led me to a career in this industry. As a child I was happy, cheeky, did well at school and was so incredibly loved. However, most of my childhood and early teen years were spent incredibly ill with a life threatening form of asthma in and out of hospital continually. In 1995, my beautiful Mum passed away at home, suddenly from an asthma attack. That day changed my life forever. I spent until my early twenties paranoid the same would happen to me, this turned in severe anxiety with disturbing panic attacks. I went on to study a Biomedical degree in the pursuit to work as a Researcher to find the answers I needed for myself and to help others in the process. I eventually made my way onto Naturopathy and Nutrition. I found my answers I was seeking. It felt right to continue a career as a Naturopath. I now have so much gratitude for my body and have learnt how to look after myself, my family, friends and my beautiful clients.
One very important thing I want you to know is this….. it does not have to be a matter of choosing the medical approach or the natural approach, they can indeed work together.
We have built a solid reputation with many medical doctors around Australia, we respect their work and appreciate that at times they are needed. Our role is to strive for optimal health. We regularly receive referrals from medical doctors and will at times see them in the clinic as clients, in the same way we may also visit them. The integrative approach with Naturopaths, Doctors and other allied health professionals is accessible.
Integrated Wellness Clinic is made up of some of the most incredible people you will ever meet. In the industry I have worked along with many folks, but I can hands down say that these guys really “have your back” and are the best that QLD has to offer. I have hand picked the most passionate, committed and like minded Practitioners. I focus most of our time these days on ensuring that our team are delivering highly exceptional quality service through training and mentorship along with our Wonder Woman Practice Manager, Nikki.
Our clinic has grown so much from just me seeing 3 clients per week to now our growing team consulting and impacting 1000’s globally. We do all this through our consultations, workshops and events.
