Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is centred around using traditional Naturopathy, Nutrition and Herbalism to restore health and vitality. During a consultation, we look closely at how dis-ease or discomfort is manifesting for you and what your body tells us through its signs and symptoms.

We also offer treatments using Dr. Hauschka skin care products
