Weight management
Confused about all the contradictory news reports about diet and health? Jane will help you make sense of the confusing information and will provide you with a personalised plan for your health. Learn how making some very simple changes in your habits could significantly improve your health.
Healthy heart and anti-metabolic syndrome
Using the Cardiovascular Risk Assessment as a guide, effective treatments can reduce your cardiovascular risks and prevent and treat common conditions such as high blood pressure, atherosclerosis, high cholesterol and stroke.
Detoxification
Foggy-headed? Bloated? Sluggish? Try a detox! A detoxification program can assist in the treatment of specific conditions such as fatty liver and food intolerance or be used in a general way to reinvigorate the body. A good detox program is tailored to your needs, gentle and safe and will revitalise your elimination organs, enhancing your ability to cope with the toxins of modern life. At the end of the detox program, you will notice increased energy and clearer thinking, less flatulence and bloating, clear skin and probably a drop in weight.
Healthy ageing
Ageing is unavoidable, but we can maximise our health and reduce age-related disease through the choices that we make today. Key conditions to prevent are dementia, osteoporosis and arthritis, prostatic enlargement, cancer, diabetes and heart disease. A healthy ageing program provides tailored recommendations for nutrition, exercise and relaxation, and supplements and herbs as indicated.
Herbal medicine
Herbal medicine has a long and noble tradition and forms the basis of modern pharmacy. In traditional herbal medicine we use whole plant extracts, thereby including all of the synergistic elements of the whole plant and reducing the risk of side effects of a concentrated isolated plant component. Herbs can be gentle and profound in their effect and are a truly wonderful, effective tool in helping harness our health and vigour. Herbs can be taken in a variety of forms, including teas, tinctures, tablets and creams and lotions.
Nutrition
Good nutrition forms the foundation of good health. Our nutritional status is determined by what we eat , how much we eat:, the effectiveness of our digestive system and our individual needs. Most consultations include nutritional recommendations.
Bush flower essences
Australian Bush Flower Essences are the distilled 'essence' of the flower. They offer gentle but effective way to help move through difficult phases, to grow, give clarity and the courage, strength and commitment to follow and pursue one's dreams.
Massage
Therapeutic massage aims to release muscle tension and stress, improve blood flow, prevent injuries and prevent restriction in movement and function. And, of course, massage is an excellent stress reliever. Types of massage offered are:
* Swedish massage - a gentle, relaxing style
* Remedial massage - a firmer technique for addressing musculo-skeletal concerns
* Pregnancy massage - massage during pregnancy and in the post-natal period to ease discomforts and provide nurturing for the mother
* Oncology & palliative care massage - to provide comfort and relaxation
A massage may incorporate both styles and essential oils are used to enhance the effect and experience.
Lymphatic drainage
Lymphatic drainage is a style of bodywork that aims to improve lymphatic circulation and to boost immune function. The lymphatic system forms part of our immune and circulatory systems. Lymphatic drainage is especially useful in detoxification programs, chronic sinus and chronic fatigue
