If you feel like it is time to be a healthier, more vibrant and energetic version of you, then it is time to see a naturopath! Naturopathy is a complete and holistic approach to healthcare that focuses on the individual and looks to treat the root cause of illness and poor health. It combines modern science with a natural treatment approach that uses effective medical-grade natural medicines and lifestyle advice to enhance the body's natural healing response and to restore healthy function and vitality. Nutritional and dietary advice is also a key aspect of Naturopathy. Josie uses evidence-based nutritional and herbal medicine in her practice. The foundation of Naturopathy is that the body has built-in healing abilities, and instead of focusing on a specific disease, a Naturopath focuses on the whole person, taking into account the physical, emotional, environmental, energetic and spiritual aspects of wellness. Naturopathy places emphasis on using natural methods and medicine to prevent and correct disease. Naturopathy can help you to: Achieve your ideal weight Increase energy and stamina Sleep better and feel great when you wake up in the morning Improve skin health Raise healthy children Improve digestion Improve memory, concentration and clarity of thinking Relieve joint, bone and muscle pain Reduce cold/flu incidence & symptoms Improve your ability to cope with stress Naturopathy treats the whole person, not just one symptom, and the brilliant thing about this is that you may come in to have one health problem addressed, and as that problem is being treated, other health issues clear up at the same time. Josie Gruber, ND is an experienced and qualified Clinical Naturopath, with special areas of interest in stress and fatigue, digestive complaints, anxiety, pregnancy care and women's health. Her friendly, welcoming and professional approach saw her build a busy practice in Neutral Bay, Sydney before relocating to the beautiful Coffs Coast in 2015 where she runs a professional home-based clinic in Sapphire Beach. "I take an individual and understanding approach to my work and clients, developing treatment programs that are specific to you! I believe patient education is essential and will spend time explaining what the root cause of your health problems may be, so that you can feel informed and empowered to take an active role in your own health. Most importantly, I will take the time to listen to you. Having previously worked in the busy corporate world, and now also a mum, I understand how a busy lifestyle can leave us feeling drained, sick and tired. I have seen that clean eating, sunshine, fresh air, pure water along with the right natural medicine can play an important role in bringing clients back into a state of good health, balance, peace and clarity." Josie is a fully qualified Naturopath, and an Accredited Member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS) which ensures that she has undergone appropriate training and complies with the highest standards of practice. A thorough case history is taken to not only look at family and personal history, but also lifestyle factors like quality of sleep, diet, stress levels, hormonal influences, hydration levels, bowel health and other contributing factors that may be affecting your health. Testing, such as food intolerance testing, genomic (DNA) tests, hormone level testing or hair tissue mineral analysis testing may also be used as required. Once the possible cause of your health issues have been identified, an individualised treatment program will be formulated for you, which may include herbal medicine and nutritional supplements, in addition to effective dietary programs and lifestyle prescriptions. Even if you are already in a reasonable state of health, Naturopathic medicine can provide a preventative and proactive approach to achieve ongoing wellbeing. Josie can help you to identify potential future health issues based on functional testing and past medical history, from which a preventative health plan can be developed to help you to take control of your own long-term wellness.
