Nutritional and lifestyle support that sits alongside your specialist’s care, in Geelong and Drysdale.
We don’t diagnose or treat autoimmune conditions; that stays with your doctor. Our part is the nutritional, herbal and lifestyle work that sits alongside their care.
How does a naturopath approach autoimmune conditions?
Your specialist diagnoses an autoimmune condition, looks after its medical care and monitors it, and nothing here changes that. Alongside that care we look at diet, gut health, nutrient status, sleep, stress and fatigue, read the results you already have, and check anything we suggest against the medicines you take.
When to see your doctor first. A flare that is new or much worse than usual, new numbness, weakness or changes in your vision, or a hot, swollen joint need your GP or specialist first. In an emergency, call 000.

Can a naturopath help with an autoimmune condition?
Not with the diagnosis or its medical treatment, which stay with your specialist. Alongside that care, a naturopath works on anti-inflammatory nutrition, gut health and lifestyle, designed to sit beside your specialist’s treatment and never to replace it.
Can naturopathy help with thyroid conditions?
Naturopathic support for thyroid conditions typically focuses on nutrient status, gut health and lifestyle factors known to influence thyroid function, alongside standard medical monitoring.
Is naturopathic care suitable alongside medication for autoimmune disease?
Naturopathic care is designed to sit alongside prescribed medication, never instead of it. Anything we suggest is checked for interactions with your existing treatment, and we will not ask you to stop or change a medicine your specialist has prescribed.
Can naturopathy help with fatigue from an autoimmune condition?
We look at nutrient status, sleep, gut health and stress load, all of which can contribute to fatigue in autoimmune conditions, alongside your specialist’s monitoring. New or worsening fatigue should be checked with your doctor first.
Do you see people with more than one autoimmune condition?
Yes. Many people we see live with more than one autoimmune condition. We look at the whole picture together, including the medicines each of your specialists has prescribed.
Do I need a referral to see a naturopath for an autoimmune condition?
No. You can book directly online or by phone, in Geelong, Drysdale or by telehealth. Bring your recent blood tests and a list of the medicines and supplements you take; they shape the plan.
