Gut Health Correction
Good health starts in the gut. We are what we eat.
1-2 regular well formed non urgent, easy to pass bowel movements each day and no gut symptoms like bloating, reflux or pain may be a sign that you’re in good gut health! If not, I’d recommend some investigation. Poor gut health can also show up in symptoms such as allergies, sinus, food intolerance and skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis to name a few. Correcting the gut is where naturopathy shines and is able to offer so much support and healing. The impact on overall health is priceless.
Hormone Balance
Hormone balance is strongly affected by gut health, liver clearance and stress. Naturopathic principles include correcting and supporting these three elements of health as the underlying cause of imbalance. Once you’re in a state of imbalance though, there’s so much on offer in the way of nutrition, lifestyle, nutrient supplements and herbs to reduce your symptoms and correct the underlying cause. For chronic conditions and those seeking deeper answers to their health issues, DUTCH hormone testing is able to provide so much clarity.
Toxin Clearance
If the liver is not working at its best capacity you’ll notice this in many area’s such as skin conditions like acne, rosacea, hormonal imbalances, headaches, feeling tired and sluggish in the morning. There are so many beautiful herbs to support the liver. But also reducing toxins by correcting gut health, diet and lifestyle factors will mean that the liver can function better. Liver support is a common part of naturopathic treatment and can be added into custom herbals or compounds.
Skin Health
The skin is our biggest elimination organ, so if the other elimination systems of the body aren’t working well, you can start to see issues coming out through skin symptoms. Finding the cause of skin issues means exploring what’s happening with the liver detox pathways, kidney function, digestion and bowel habits. As with any symptoms we always need to look for the underlying cause and investigate the ‘why’ but especially so with issues of the skin.
Stress Support
In today’s busy lifestyle many people don’t realise how stressed they are. Practicing to create quiet moments in your day, to do breathwork, daily mindfulness, meditation can help to keep your cortisol levels down. If stress is too high or chronic then there are so many nutrients and herbs that can support you to become better in balance and feel more resilient, calm and joyful.
Hayfever, Allergy & Sinus
There’s a strong link between gut health and allergic reactivity. While natural remedies can help manage symptoms of hay fever and sinus issues, a gut microbiome test is the best way to address the root cause, especially for chronic sufferers. An imbalance in gut bacteria—especially histamine-releasing ones—combined with leaky gut, can lead to increased inflammation throughout the body and an overactive immune system.
