A holistic approach to hormonal, digestive and immune disorders
I’m Ruth, here to help you navigate your health journey with confidence and understanding. My goal is to offer you an effective care strategy using nutrition, herbal medicine and lifestyle habits to achieve best results.
I combine a holistic approach with modern science to seek underlying drivers of disease; identifying and addressing what your body needs to heal. Since graduating nearly 10 years ago, I’ve worked alongside leading naturopathic experts and health companies. My extensive knowledge, experience and passion for what I do is my specialty – making sure no stone is left unturned when it comes to your health.
Currently, I offer face-face consults at Spring Acupuncture, a clinic that specialises in supporting fertility. However, my expertise can help support a range of other issues, including:
My areas of expertise:
- IBS symptoms such as pain, bloating and irregular bowel habits
- Reflux and indigestion
- PMS, PMDD, PCOS and Endometriosis
- Menopausal health and symptom management
- Sustainable weightloss
- Sleep and mood issues, including insomnia, anxiety and mood swings
- Mental and emotional burnout
- Recurrent infections, such as thrush or bacterial vaginosis
- Infant and toddler wellness, such as ongoing infections and constipation

What does naturopathic care look like?
Food as medicine
Nourishing your body with the right foods is a powerful healing tool. I provide individualised and practical guidance to help you get the most out of what you eat.
Nutritional supplements
Nutrients are essential resources. My extensive knowledge in this area allows me to recommend the best combination of cost-effective supplements to facilitate recovery.
Botanical extracts
Herbs contain many compounds that help restore immune, hormonal and digestive health. For this reason, they are highly valuable tools that I draw upon in my practice.
Mindfulness & self-care
These tools are essential to support mental and emotional resilience. It’s important to make sure these are part of your routine to maintain a healthy mind and spirit.
Pathology testing
Testing can reveal underlying patterns behind your health issues. This is a great way to ensure that we take an informed and holistic approach moving forward.

Naturopath Ruth acknowledges the Turrbal and Yuggera people as the traditional custodians of the land where she lives and works.
I acknowledge their deep connection to these lands, which was never ceded.
