Let’s Work Together

 

The Process

I treat every client as an individual. To help you reach your wellness and performance goals, I consider all aspects of your health, lifestyle, and unique circumstances. Through a thorough consultation, functional and Western medicine testing, and careful assessment, I work with you holistically to identify the root causes of imbalances or ill-health, or uncover ways to help you perform at your best, both in sport and in everyday life.

Treatment is personalised and may include:

  • Practitioner-only herbal and nutritional supplementation (please note elite athletes will only receive HASTA certified or equivalent products)

  • Tailored dietary guidance and plans to fuel your body and support recovery

  • Cronometer - suitable clients will be chosen have access to cronometer professional - this is a web-based platform built for practitioners that provides on-demand dietary and training analysis. This is supplied

  • Lifestyle and movement strategies to restore balance, resilience, and wellbeing

Many athletes come to me with underlying health conditions that predate their sport, often due to overtraining, immune imbalance, hormonal shifts, low energy availability, or RED-S. Addressing these root causes takes time, but this is where sports naturopathy shines. It’s not just about calories, carb loading, or post-session protein — it’s about optimising all of the systems of the body (e.g. digestion, nervous, hormonal) and building resilient, healthy bodies that can perform sustainably and have longevity on and off the field.

 
 

Let’s Get Started, how it works:


1.   your package

We will work out after your initial consult if the Premium package or the Focused package is best. It will depend on your goals and current health status.

  • Premium Program: Designed for clients with diagnosed conditions, chronic health complaints, or ambitious athletic goals. This program provides comprehensive support and frequent check-ins to help you address complex health challenges and achieve high-level performance outcomes.

  • Focused Program: Ideal for those looking to improve specific health, performance, or lifestyle goals without major underlying health conditions. It provides structured guidance and support to optimise energy, digestion, hormones, and overall wellbeing.

Change can be challenging, and willpower alone is rarely enough to break old habits and create lasting ones. My role is to empower you to sustain lifelong positive changes through structure, guidance, and accountability.

This is why all programs are based on a minimum 12-week commitment. Achieving true health and performance takes time, consistency, and discipline. There are no quick fixes — but with the right support, the results are lasting.


2.    Your care & ongoing support

Your program is designed to give you consistent guidance, accountability, and personalised support throughout your 12-week journey. Each package includes multiple points of contact:

  1. One-on-One Consultations – Face-to-face or telehealth sessions where we assess your progress, set goals, and adjust your plan as needed.

  2. Follow-Up Phone / Video Check-Ins – Short sessions between consultations to keep you on track and address questions in real time.

  3. Optional Weekly Check-Ins via Text / Email – Additional support for clients who prefer more frequent guidance and accountability.

  4. Unlimited Access to Jo via Email & Text – You can reach out anytime for guidance or questions. Please allow up to 24 hours for a response during set times.

  5. Cronometer - dietary and training analysis program. ($25/month for non packaged clients)

These touchpoints are tailored depending on whether you’re on the Premium Program (more frequent consultations and check-ins) or the Focused Program (strategic check-ins for targeted goals), ensuring the right level of support for your individual needs.


3.    Treatment

I set the tone by helping my clients get the foundations right; these are diet and lifestyle. You will be given tailored prescriptions specific for you and your goals.

To bridge any gaps, accelerate healing and to help take your health to the next level I may prescribe the following:

·       Practitioner only nutritional supplements
·       Practitioner only herbal supplements
·       Tailored herbal liquid blends
·       Yoga sequences
·       Meditation & mindfulness techniques
·       Movement and physical activity

The cost of supplements and herbs vary but monthly costs may average between $50-200 per month.


4.    Functional and Diagnostic Testing

Testing is not always necessary. However, in some cases to better understand what is going and in order to treat more effectively, I may request general pathology testing through your GP and/or request additional tests such as:

·       Complete digestive stool analysis
·       Intestinal permeability
·       Bacteria, Fungal and Parasite Testing
·       Food allergies and reactivity:
       IgG, IgE, IgA Food Sensitivity Profiles
·       Adrenal Hormone Profiles
·       Female Hormone Charting
·       2 & 16 Oestrogen Metabolites
·       Nutritional profiles
·       Cardiovascular markers
·       Heavy metals
·       Environmental toxin


5.    Meta Scan Testing

The MetaScan is a TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) approved device. The 5 minute painless test provides instant results and a report that tells me your current health status and how you are responding to your current diet and lifestyle on a cellular level.

I invested in this; the best quality Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis device on the market so I can better understand my clients internal health and get the most accurate body composition (i.e. body fat, muscle mass, hydration levels) analysis. It is an excellent test that will not only motivate you but also give you great insights into your body.

Each client on a package will receive this test at each consult. I can then accurately monitor, track changes and assess how they are responding to their specific treatment.

Additional tests outside of the package consults are charged at $65 per test.
