Our Practitioners

Emily is a qualified Naturopath, Herbalist and Skin Therapist with a particular focus on Skin Disorders.

Emily is our lead naturopath and skin therapist. Emily leads the skin team to help clients receive the best results from our range of skin therapies and body contouring treatments.

She has a deep understanding of the key systems within the body and how they work in order to restore balance and youthfulness in the skin. She also has extensive experience in hormonal and digestive health, blood sugar dysregulation, immune imbalance and nutritional deficiencies.

Emily is passionate about helping people look and feel their best and combines her knowledge and expertise to develop comprehensive plans using clean, customised skincare and naturopathic modalities. She has studied how the brain and nervous system impact the health of one’s skin, a term coined psycho-dermatology, and continues to undergo study in this field.

Emily is committed to helping others resolve frustrating skin issues because she struggled with hormonal cystic acne and mild rosacea for many years. Dissatisfied with the results from oral contraceptives, antibiotics and other conventional acne treatments, Emily decided to take matters in her own hands and find a safer and more sustainable solution to achieve healthy, glowing skin.

Emily regularly practices yoga and meditation. She also enjoys quality time with her family, spending time re-energising in nature. "The aspect I love most about a Naturopathic approach to skin is that it empowers individuals as it educates them on how to make life long changes towards glowing skin.”

Bethany is a qualified skin therapist with a passion treating complex skin conditions, offering a transformative facial experience and client education. In particular, Bethany enjoys working with all forms of acne, skin sensitivities, age management and pigmentation disorders, working to heal and repair the skin while promoting skin integrity.

Having overcome years of adult acne herself, Bethany understands how debilitating a skin condition can be and approaches her clients with a great deal of empathy and compassion in their journeys. Her previous qualifications in the field of journalism ensure she is a clear and confident communicator in all aspects of treatment.

As a skin therapist, Bethany works alongside the clinic’s naturopaths to help identify the root cause of clients’ skin conditions. Her belief in the skin’s innate capacity to heal itself is what drives her interest in non-invasive yet results-driven skincare.

Bethany is also currently completing a Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy, with the aim of further enhancing her knowledge on the internal drivers of skin conditions and all aspects of holistic health. 

As well as her passion for Shiatsu, Ann enjoys yoga and meditation which has been a part of her wellness routine for over 20 years.

Ann lives with nature on 18 acres of bushland with roos, echidnas, wallabies, wombats, many birds and of course venomous snakes and she believes that we can learn a lot from nature and the seasons. She understands how our bodies react to changes and the analogy of being the tree of life, removing unwanted branches and learning to gently move with the wind with our roots firmly in the ground.  Honesty, sincerity and integrity are values that are important to Ann and are displayed by her passion in assisting others to feel and scan their body to be aware of tension and emotional blockages.

Ann was in Science and business. However, since having children, she has explored and studied many methods of healing and wellness, including astrology, grief and loss, Jungian dream work, reiki, tarot, intuitive healing, massage, mind/body wellness and the use of communication, all whilst continuing her practices in yoga and meditation.

Since completing her Shiatsu studies, Ann has been well received as an honest, ethical and caring practitioner assisting many and varied clients on their self-empowering journey. Ann’s passion is to assist others to be the best version of themselves that they can be through touch, breath, stretches and some homework. She works by assisting the body to feel good, allowing the mind and body to work on healing at a deep level for wellness.

Ann is currently an active member on the National Council of the Shiatsu Therapy Association of Australia where along with her official role as Secretary, she is involved in all decision making and directional focus for the peak body for Shiatsu in Australia.
