I have been practicing Naturopathy for more than 26 years and hold a Bachelor of Health Science in Complementary Medicine. I am passionate about treating patients using functional medicine and have a specific interest in womens health . Using evidence based approach the goal of functional medicine is to help prevent illness by taking care of imbalances early on. Using advanced pathology techniques we can find the underlying probelms and develop a comprehensive treatment plan. This testing examines digestion, gut, adrenal and hormonal imbalances and can include sophisticated urine, stool and saliva testing. Based on the findings lifestyle and dietary advice will be offered together with appropriate vitamin, mineral and herbal synergistic supplements.

HI, I’M VERA DAHLSTROM I love to help people improve their health. I completed my Naturopathic studies in 2000 and for the last 22 yrs I have been a practising naturopath with some time off to have two healthy babies, who are now healthy teenagers. I am happy to help all ages and conditions. My special interest areas include: 1. healthy ageing (especially as that is where I’m heading myself!) 2. women’s hormonal disorders (such as Endometriosis, Polycystic ovarian syndrome, Painful periods, Pre-mentrual syndrome and Fibroids) 3. Menopause My mother turned her health around through diet with the popular Pritikin program in the 1980’s (a lot has changed since then!). I still remember eating cracked buckwheat for breakfast and feeling like it was the end of everything! But what I remember most is my mother’s chronic migraines going away and her losing weight and looking great. I was sold on the power of nutrition. Herbal Medicine also became a passion when I took up naturopathic studies. Herbs are nature’s medicine and endlessly fascinating. Vera is a member of the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (Member No. 14373). Her qualifications include: Advanced Diploma of Health Science (Naturopathy), Diploma of Health Science (Herbal Medicine), Graduate Certificate in Human Nutrition, and many, many years ago: Bachelor of Economics.
