Your Health Assessment

---

Cheryl Penna established urban sense wellness clinic in Northcote as an integrated medicine practice that specializes in optimizing her client's health and wellbeing. Cheryl believes that early assessment of nutritional deficiencies and poor lifestyle practices can often prevent the development of many chronic diseases facing our society today.

Many health conditions often start years before a medical problem is diagnosed but we often over look the signs and symptoms that indicate that things are not as they should be. Poor sleep, weight gain, fatigue, allergies, infertility and poor digestion are often signs that indicate that your body may not be functioning as it should be.

There are many factors that affect our health and promote change within the body: the foods we eat, poor digestive and elimination processes, genetic factors and prolonged stress. These issues are often overlooked by our current medical system in addressing individual health needs.

Cheryl offers her clients professional advice and treatment on a wide range of health conditions. A personalised health program is developed to help you improve and maintain optimal health and wellbeing. Function pathology testing, physical examinations and bio-cellular assessment are used to accurately assess and monitor your progress.

Weightloss
Achieving and maintaining a healthy weight is difficult for many people. There is so much conflicting advice offered that many people are unsure of what to do. Generic diets often work for a limited number of people who offen struggle to maintain their weightloss permanently. We offer our clients a fast and simple solution with our highly sucessfull HCG weight loss program. Our 6 weeks program will help you lose fat, look great and regain your zest for life.

Detox Rejuvenation
Try as we may, decreasing our exposure to chemical toxins and environmental pollution is quite a challenge. Toxic overload can result in a system that struggles, resulting in allergies, recurrent infections, infertility, fatigue, digestive disorders and chronic illness. Our detoxification program identifies areas of weakness that may be contributing to your current level of health and works to restore a healthy digestive system.

Women's Health
The average woman today spends most of her reproductive years controlled by synthetic hormones that mask many hormonal imbalances and fertility problems. Irregular cycles, period pain, PCOS, Endometriosis and Menopause are often related to multiple endocrine and immune related issues that are treatable with simple lifestyle and nutritional therapies.

Fertility Fitness
A healthy conception requires that both partners are nutritionally well. Issues such as poor diet and lifestyle habits, decreased nutritent intake, stress and hormonal imbalance have been shown to decrease fertily in both men and women. Male health is often over looked in preconception care but has been shown to be a contributing factor in 50% of infertility cases. Diet, stress and lifestyle factors can impact on the quality of male sperm health, contributing to our high rate of infertility. For optimal sucess a preconception period that focuses on improving your health for both partners is essential to achieving a healthy full term pregnancy.

Bio-impedance Analysis
Also known as a cellular health analysis, this technical scanner measures key biomarkers of ageing and body composition. It is an effective tool for identifying body composition, monitoring fat loss and detoxification as well as cellular ageing.
