I am a Naturopath, Herbalist and Yoga Teacher using a wide array of health practices and modalities to profoundly change the lives of my students and patients. As a Naturopath my goal is to assist my patient’s body so they can heal themselves. Using naturopathy, herbal medicine, yoga and plant-based nutrition I aim to increase people’s quality of life so that they can live long healthy lives, rather than focusing on simply extending life span through disease management. To find out more about my practice, to book an appointment or class, or to simply learn more about health and wellness visit www.nerdynaturopath.com.The Nerdy Naturopath’s mission is to educate as many people as possible about the healing power of nature and give them tools for health promotion and disease prevention.The Nerdy Naturopath arose from my joint love of naturopathy and nerdiness! Naturopathy is a healing modality which harnesses the power of nature to assist our bodies in healing themselves, and the nerdy side of the business refers to my love of learning, of science and of books and popular culture. The Nerdy Naturopath blog is an educational resource where I hope to spread the message of wellness to larger audiences by focusing on wellness topics mentioned in popular culture, for example The Herbs of Harry Potter, always providing solid scientific referencing.The Nerdy Naturopath promotes my vision for a world where people are fully informed about the healthcare and health prevention options available to them. A world where our healthcare system is one that actually cares about achieving health and wellness, where the promotion of health is at the forefront, rather than a system of pharmaceutical disease management. A move from a world of fear and chronic illness to world full of hope and possibility where we are connected with nature and it’s healing power, where wellness is the norm and people recognise that ‘incurable’ simply means curable from within.
