HOW NATUROPATHIC MEDICINES CAN HELP?

Naturopathic medicine is a holistic approach to health and wellness that focuses on treating the whole person—mind, body, and emotional health—naturally rather than just addressing symptoms. Rooted in the principles of natural healing, naturopathic medicine combines traditional healing methods with modern scientific knowledge to support the body’s innate ability to heal itself. At the core of naturopathic medicine is the belief that the body has an inherent ability to restore and maintain health when provided with the right conditions. Naturopathic practitioners use a range of natural therapies, including herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation, homeopathic remedies, dietary modifications, and lifestyle counselling, to create individualised treatment plans tailored to each person’s unique needs. Naturopathic medicine is not just about treating illness; it’s about empowering you to take control of your health, preventing disease, and optimizing your overall well-being. Whether you’re dealing with a specific health condition or simply looking to enhance your vitality, naturopathic medicine offers a comprehensive, personalized approach to achieving long-term health and balance.

✨Big News for Natural Health in Australia!✨

I’m thrilled to share that the Federal Government has announced the reinstatement of private health insurance rebates for naturopathy along with six other natural therapies! 

This is such a huge win for our profession and for all Australians who value natural holistic, preventative care. From 1 July 2025, you’ll once again be able to claim private health rebates for naturopathic consultations, making natural healthcare more accessible and affordable.

This announcement reflects the growing recognition of the important role natural medicine plays in supporting our long-term health and wellbeing.

A big thank you to @atmsnaturalmedicine for all their advocacy and tireless work behind the scenes to help make this possible. 

Let’s continue to build a healthier future together.

✨ So many women are navigating these symptoms without realising histamine could be playing a role—especially during peri/menopause when our hormones are shifting. If you’ve been dealing with things like random skin flare-ups, itchy skin, new food sensitivities, or those annoying headaches that just won’t budge, you’re not alone. Understanding the histamine–hormone connection can be a game changer for your health and wellbeing.

If you think high histamine might be an issue for you, comment ‘HELP’ in the chat. I would love to help you! 💛

🍃Mediterranean Salmon with Herb Quinoa🍃

This nourishing dish features wild salmon, a fantastic source of omega 3 fats that help reduce inflammation, support brain function, and ease mood swings during peri and menopause. It is paired with ingredients inspired by the green Mediterranean diet, a plant-rich way of eating shown to support cardiovascular health, improve metabolic function, and enhance memory and cognitive wellbeing. This style of eating is especially beneficial during the hormonal shifts of peri and menopause when women are more vulnerable to changes in mood, heart health, and brain function.

Ingredients:

Salmon:
4 wild salmon fillets (approx 450 g)
3 garlic cloves, minced
3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Pinch sea salt and black pepper
½ cup milk of choice

Herb Quinoa:
1 cup quinoa, uncooked
¼ cup lemon juice
1 cup flat-leaf parsley, finely chopped (keep some for topping)
1 cup fresh mint, finely chopped
Pinch sea salt and black pepper

Topping:
¾ cup green olives, pitted and halved
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
½ Lebanese cucumber, diced
½ cup feta, crumbled
¼ cup toasted pine nuts
Splash of extra virgin olive oil
Pinch sea salt and black pepper

Tip:
Cook quinoa in veggie stock instead of water for extra flavour and nourishment

Method:

Marinate salmon in olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice then season and pan-fry until cooked to your liking

Toss olives, tomatoes, cucumber, feta, extra parsley, olive oil, salt and pepper to make the topping

Cook quinoa with water or veggie stock until fluffy then let it cool slightly

Mix quinoa with lemon juice, parsley, mint, pine nuts, salt and pepper

Serve herb quinoa topped with salmon and the fresh olive mix

Lemon wedges on the side finish it off beautifully 💚
