Persistent bloating, pelvic discomfort, feeling full quickly or changes in bladder and bowel habits can have many explanations. When they are new, unusual for you or ongoing, they deserve medical assessment.

Ovarian cancer symptoms can overlap with digestive and hormonal concerns. There is currently no recommended routine screening test, and cervical screening does not detect ovarian cancer.

As a naturopath, I can help you take practical steps towards reducing modifiable cancer risks through personalised nutrition, regular movement and reducing exposure to known carcinogens. I also support your sleep and stress management, helping you build sustainable habits that fit your life.

Alongside this, I recognise when symptoms need further medical investigation. Knowing your family history, tracking changes and following up on persistent symptoms remain important.

While no approach can guarantee cancer prevention, there are meaningful steps you can take to support your long-term health.

You don’t have to work through it alone. 🤍

You don’t need to empty your whole bathroom cupboard to start living low tox.

Most people try to do it all in one weekend and give up by Sunday.

The easier way is one room at a time, swapping things out as they run out.

I’ve broken it into 7 steps, starting in the kitchen and finishing with how to support your body’s own detox.

If you’d like help working out where to start, book a consult with me through the link in my bio.

GI-MAP, DUTCH, OAT… if you've been down the wellness rabbit hole, you've probably heard of at least one of these. But what do they actually show, and do you need them?

Functional tests can give really useful extra detail, but they're a tool, not a starting point. I always look at your symptoms, history and standard bloods first, and only recommend testing if it's going to change what we do next.

Have you done any of these tests before? Tell me below 👇

“My GP says my blood tests are normal, but I still don’t feel like myself.”

I hear this often in clinic.

Your results may be within the reference range, but ongoing fatigue, brain fog, hair loss or other symptoms still deserve attention.

When I interpret your blood results, I consider more than whether a number is flagged high or low. I look at related markers, changes over time and how the results fit with your symptoms and health history.

Your nutrition, movement, toxic load, sleep, stress and medications also help us understand the bigger picture.

From there, we can develop practical, personalised support and identify whether further investigations or medical review are needed.

You don’t have to work through it alone.

Book a consultation through the link in my bio and bring your recent results. 🤍

GLP-1 medications are everywhere right now, and one thing I see again and again in clinic is people eating so little that they're missing the basics their body needs.

Less food means every meal has to work harder. Protein, fibre, hydration and strength training make a huge difference to how you feel, and to what you keep, not just what you lose.

If you're on a GLP-1 medication and feeling flat, nauseous or just unsure what to eat, this is exactly what I can help with, working alongside your doctor.

Save this for later and send it to someone who needs it 💛

Naturopathic cancer support sits alongside your oncology care, never instead of it.

It may include helping you manage treatment-related symptoms, supporting your nutrition, carefully checking supplements and herbal medicine against your individual protocol and helping you recover when active treatment finishes.

Every recommendation considers your diagnosis, medications, blood results, treatment stage and how you are feeling at that particular time. Cancer support should never be one-size-fits-all.

If you would like individualised support that is safe, evidence-informed and communicated openly with your medical team, you can book an initial consultation through the link in my bio.

You don’t have to do this alone.

Most women have had these tests done at some point and never had the results properly explained.

The reference ranges above are what I look for in my practice, and they are tighter than the standard lab ranges for a reason: we are aiming for optimal, not just "not sick".

If you would like help understanding your results and creating a clear plan that supports your metabolic and overall health, the link to book an initial consultation is in my bio.

What actually happens in a naturopath consultation, start to finish.

It begins with a detailed health questionnaire before you even walk in, then a proper deep dive into your symptoms, hormones, digestion, sleep, stress, energy and history. You leave with a personalised treatment plan covering nutrition, lifestyle, targeted supplements and herbal medicine.

Bring any recent blood tests, scans or specialist reports with you. They make the plan sharper.

If you've been putting off booking because you weren't sure what you were walking into, this is it.

On a GLP-1 medication? Protein, resistance training and your bloods are the three things to have sorted.

Appetite suppression shrinks intake without improving it, so muscle loss, low iron and B12, constipation and hair shedding are the ones that come up again and again in clinic.

None of this is medical advice and nothing here replaces your prescriber. It's the nutritional support that sits alongside what they're managing.

Save it for your next appointment, or book a consult if you want your bloods looked at properly.

How to do a breast self-check, and when in your cycle to do it.

Most women check the wrong week and get a false alarm from tissue that was always going to be lumpy on day 24. Day 7 to 10 after your period starts is the window. No cycle, pick a date and hold it.

Slide 7 is the one to screenshot. Anything on that list is a GP conversation, not a wait and see.

Book in if you want support with the cyclical stuff alongside your regular screening.
