Providing balance between Medicine and Natural Therapies.
SERVICES
Welcome to our Clinic.
Our Clinic is staffed by practitioners who are recognised experts in their fields. Unlike conventional medical centres, we concentrate on your individual health issues and integrating care by working as a team on your behalf.
Our fees reflect a standard of care that targets the root cause of the illness rather than band-aiding the symptoms. We give you extra time with each practitioner allowing you a full analysis of your past history and current health issues, leading to a detailed management plan. Our team works on the biochemical, nutritional and emotional aspects of your health.
At Xtra Health we hold monthly public information seminars to enable our patients to gain valuable information to assist them on their wellness journey. Our Practitioners will share their wealth of information on a variety of subjects.
