+Naturopathic Nutrition
It's about balance - getting the mix of what you eat right. Your energy and overall health can be improved immensely by "tweaking" your diet a little. That old saying "you are what you eat" contains a lot of truth. Jan prefers to say that your health reflects the "fuel", or food, you put into your body. And it's not just your diet that affects your health. Lifestyle choices play a large role along with how you manage stress.
Together with Jan you can fast track your health by:
- Decreasing fatigue

- Many chronic, long-term or debilitating health problems can be assisted through nutrition and natural therapies. It is impossible to list all the conditions that Jan can help you with, so call her to ask about your specific problem.
Jan also treats children in her practice for a wide range of conditions. For example, anxiety at school, bedwetting, allergies, asthma, diets for autism, diet related poor behaviour, constipation, glue ear, chronic colds and sleep problems are just some of the reasons parents bring their children for a consultation.
+Saliva Hormone Testing
Many of your feelings of poor health could be due to hormonal imbalances. Salivary hormone testing provides an accurate way to identify these imbalances and help to focus on bringing them back to a balanced state. Jan offers salivary hormone testing as a non-invasive and very convenient measure of her client’s hormones. It measures free, bioavailable hormones (those doing their job at the cellular level) as opposed to bound, unavailable hormones in the blood.
Steroid hormones play such a vital role in the maintainence of health and wellbeing. Identifying an imbalance in any one or more of the hormones through saliva testing can help to create the most effective treatment protocol for the client in order to balance the hormones.
Salivary hormone testing can be used for both males and females. The test even applies to those taking NHRT/ HRT or the oral contraceptive pill. It is useful in cases of:
- PMS
- Amennorrhoea (absence of menstruation)
- Menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding)
- Fibroids
- Cysts
- Low libido
- Endometriosis
- Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
- Menopause
- Fertility problems - female and male
- Preconception programs including Detox
- Difficulty conceiving
- Miscarriage
- Weight gain, difficulty losing weight
- CFS (chronic fatigue syndrome)
- Lack of energy
- Sleep problems
- Panic/anxiety attacks
- Depression
- Osteoporosis
- Acne
- "Grumpy old man syndrome":
- Easy to anger
- Feeling irritable easily
- Snoring
- Falling asleep in front of TV
- Loss of confidence
- Depression
- Poor libido / poor erections
In menstruating females the saliva sample is taken on day 21 of the cycle, first thing in the morning. For males or non-menstruating women, the sample can be taken any day of the month. You do the test yourself in your home and send the sample away in the kit and postage paid envelope provided. The results will be sent to food, body + health after approximately 2-3 weeks. Jan will then discuss the results with you during your follow-up consultation. There are simple ways to improve hormone imbalance so do not despair. Just seek Jan's help.
+ Cellular Health Analysis
Using scientifically-validated Bioimpedance Analysis (BIA) equipment, Jan can check your body’s health on a cellular level. The BIA assesses your:
- basal metabolic rate (BMR)
- biological age (we all want to hear we are biologically younger than our chronological age!).
- disease risk
- body fat levels
- muscle mass
- toxicity and fluid retention levels
- cellular vitality and nutrient absorption
- daily kilojoule and dietary needs
CHA is suitable for all adults, including pregnant women, is totally painless and extremely enlightening in the information it gives.
How can CHA help you? Using the BIA Jan can pinpoint your specific problem areas and prescribe a program of care to bring your body back into balance. Most importantly, Jan will be able to advise you what the best form of exercise is for your body and what quantities of protein, carbohydrate and fats you need to eat to maintain a healthy weight.
+ Touch For Health Therapy
Touch For Health is a wonderful therapy that uses kinesiology (or muscle testing) principles to determine where there are imbalances in your body's energy system. Using gentle techniques, Jan re-balances your body's energy. At the least, you will feel more peaceful and at ease after a Touch For Health balance. Many people experience a much greater sense of wellbeing after a balance.
Touch for Health works extremely well with the nutrition programs Jan tailors for your specific health goals. It removes energy blocks that may hold you back from reaching your health potential.
Touch for Health helps you discover unconscious beliefs that may hold you back from attracting into your life what you truly desire. This may be better health, happier relationships, a more positive outlook, more energy, better weight management, greater self-knowledge, increased fulfilment, work satisfaction or better sports performance.
+ Health & Life Counselling
Jan provides a safe and private place where you can discuss issues of concern. She offers practical exercises and tools to help you make shifts in your life to bring more fulfilment.
In counselling, you will learn how small adjustments to your thinking and lifestyle can achieve maximum effect. Often it only takes small changes to increase your wellbeing.
Together you can work with Jan on your short-term and long-term goals to bring them to fruition. Jan may suggest a combination of counselling with Touch For Health therapy to ensure your whole self - mental, physical, emotional and spiritual - supports your move towards greater happiness and vitality.
+ Bach Flower Remedies
Bach flowers work on your energy system by correcting imbalances in the emotional or mental states. The essences are powerful, and help you to feel balanced. Jan tailor-makes a Bach Flower blend for your specific mental state and often prescribes them in conjunction with counselling or Touch for Health therapy. The Bach Flowers are a wonderful support and will ease inner turmoil, stress, fears and anxiety. The remedies are so gentle they are suitable for babies, in pregnancy and for pets.
Jan also makes Bach Flower remedies for a dog trainer's doggy clients. Richard has found them to be a great therapy to help address behavioural problems his clients are experiencing.
