Naturopath

Jackie Ludwig

Naturopathy is about rectifying imbalance in the body BEFORE it causes illness. Jackie teaches you how to maximise your body’s ability to heal itself so you can live your life to the max!! She enjoys seeing people learn how to bring their body back to balance as nature intended, and maintain it that way.

Naturopathy is thorough, non-invasive and effective for everyone from infants to the elderly.

Jackie has an array of experience and a special interest in helping people with digestive disorders, stress related conditions and hormonal imbalance.

WHAT DOES A CONSULTATION INVOLVE ?

An initial consultation with Jackie involves a comprehensive Naturopathic assessment including a detailed health history, iridology, tongue analysis, nail analysis and Hemaview live blood screening to look at underlying processes in your body.

This assessment identifies systems and areas in your body that may require support to prevent or slow degeneration and keep you well.

Recommendations, or any further assessment measures are tailored for you as an individual. Such assessment may include further dietary analysis, urinary indicans test for bowel health or blood type testing (which are discussed in more detail further on).

HOW LONG BEFORE I WILL FEEL BETTER ?

Anywhere from a week or two (for acute symptoms like colds) to a few months (for more chronic arthritis, deep seated hormonal imbalance, etc).

Follow up consultations are important to reassess your progress and resolve any queries with implementing your individualised holistic health program. They may include monitoring with techniques such as Hemaview live blood screening, urinary indicans testing, tongue and nail analysis or zinc level testing. Frequency of follow up will vary between individuals and as you progress towards and maintain your optimum wellness. Follow ups may be weekly or fortnightly to begin with, stretching to monthly or every few months as you achieve and maintain health.

Feel free to talk to Jackie about a program for you.
