Clinical Naturopath providing structured nutrition, herbal medicine and lifestyle support for complex or persistent health concerns.

I’m a degree-qualified naturopath with 8 years of clinical experience, helping clients manage a range of health conditions such as hormonal imbalances, fertility concerns, gut health, stress management, burnout, autoimmune conditions, and metabolic health. I provide personalised naturopathic treatments, combining herbal remedies, nutritional therapies, and lifestyle adjustments to help clients achieve long-term wellness. Outside of my practice, I am a mum to three wonderful daughters, including twins. I love gardening and growing my own vegetables and herbs, and I love teaching my children the importance of nutrition and healthy living. This passion also extends into my work, where I focus on educating clients on the benefits of natural health solutions. I'm based in Spotswood, and I also offer online consults anywhere in Australia.

My name is Mari, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Naturopathy from Endeavour College of Natural Health. Originally from Finland, I am also a qualified registered nurse, with a few years of experience working in the Emergency Department before settling in Australia. My background includes service as a nurse in the Finnish Defence Forces, along with a certification in sports massage. With over 10 years of experience in healthcare, I have developed strong practical skills and a deep understanding of patient care. While working within conventional medicine, I often encountered limitations that led me to seek a more comprehensive approach. Naturopathy has provided me with a deeper understanding of disease and the ability to support health through a truly holistic lens. Naturopathy is not only my profession but also my passion. I practise what I preach and am dedicated to empowering others through education. I believe in supporting people in taking an active role in their health—helping them understand their bodies, their needs, and how to achieve lasting well-being and prevent disease. My approach to care is holistic and individualised. I assess each person through detailed consultations, including symptoms, medical and family history, diet, lifestyle, and relevant pathology results. Where appropriate, I incorporate functional testing to identify the root causes of health concerns. From this, I create personalised treatment plans and provide ongoing support throughout the wellness journey. In practice, I utilise a combination of dietary and lifestyle modifications, herbal medicine, and nutritional support to restore balance to both body and mind. My approach is based on current scientific research, clinical experience, and traditional knowledge. My main areas of interest: - Digestive health: Gain relief from digestive issues such as reflux, indigestion, constipation, diarrhea, bloating, dysbiosis, hemorrhoids, intolerances, IBS, IBD, parasites, SIBO… - Women's Wellness: Find balance and support for women's health concerns such as PMS, endometriosis, irregular, painful and heavy periods, hormonal changes, reoccurring UTI’s, thrush and BV, vaginal health and understanding your natural cycle from menarche to menopause - Nervous system regulation: Learn natural ways to regulate the nervous system, to soothe anxiety, reduce stress and improve sleep. - Gentle detoxification: Support your body's natural detox processes with gentle, effective naturopathic methods.
