The Balance – Energetic Healing Sessions Alongside her clinical naturopathic practice, Katie also offers The Balance, a gentle energetic healing session designed to help restore harmony within the body, mind, and nervous system. This work supports people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or energetically out of alignment and are seeking a deeper sense of calm, clarity, and flow in their lives. During a Balance session, muscle testing is used to identify energetic imbalances within the body’s meridian system. These imbalances are connected with sacred numerical patterns that reflect areas where energy may be blocked or out of balance. Once identified, specific energetic corrections are applied to help restore balance and support the body’s natural ability to regulate and heal. Clients lie comfortably on a treatment table while the balancing work is performed. Many people naturally enter a deeply relaxed or meditative state during this process. After a session, clients commonly report: • Deep nervous system relaxation • Emotional release or clarity • Improved focus and decision making • A sense of energetic lightness • Feeling that life begins to flow more easily Each Balance session works with what the body and energy system are ready to shift at that time. Sessions typically run for approximately 60 minutes. Distance (Surrogate) Balance Sessions For clients who are not local, The Balance can also be performed remotely using a surrogate session. In this process, another person acts as the physical body for muscle testing while the session is energetically tuned to the client. The balancing work is directed toward the client regardless of where they are located. Once your session is booked: You will receive a message when the session is about to begin. If possible, take this time to rest, relax, or meditate. The Balance session will be completed remotely. After the session, you will receive a message and a short follow-up summary. Many clients report experiencing similar shifts and relaxation with surrogate sessions as they do with in-person sessions. Suggested Starting Point For most people it is recommended to begin with two Balance sessions, with the second session occurring approximately one week after the first. This allows the body time to integrate the initial corrections and deepen the balancing process. Further sessions can then be scheduled depending on your goals and what arises during the work. Important Note The Balance is an energetic healing modality designed to support wellbeing and personal development. It is not intended to replace medical or psychological care where required.

I am a qualified Naturopath (BHSc) and the founder of Amerald Naturopathy. My approach to health is holistic, individualised and grounded in the understanding that the body is an interconnected system. Rather than focusing solely on individual symptoms, I look more deeply at the factors that may be contributing to a person’s health concerns, including nutrition, digestive function, hormones, nervous system health, immune function, lifestyle, environment and emotional wellbeing. I believe the body has an incredible innate capacity to heal, regulate and restore balance when it is given the right conditions and support. Sometimes, however, it needs a little extra guidance. My role is to help identify where support may be needed and work alongside my clients to create a realistic, personalised path forward. My practice combines traditional naturopathic principles and the healing properties of food, plants and natural medicines with current scientific research, pathology and functional testing where appropriate. Treatment may incorporate nutritional medicine, herbal medicine, nutraceuticals, dietary and lifestyle support, nervous system regulation and other complementary approaches. I am a mother of four and have always had a deep connection with nature, plants and natural healing. Even as a child, I was fascinated by the natural world and felt there was something incredibly powerful in the way plants, food and our environment interact with the human body. This connection ultimately led me to naturopathy and continues to influence the way I practise today. I work with people across all stages of life, from babies and children through adolescence, adulthood, pregnancy, postpartum and healthy ageing. I particularly enjoy working with complex or long-standing presentations where multiple systems may be involved, taking the time to explore the bigger picture rather than viewing symptoms in isolation. My areas of particular interest include brain and nervous system health, hormonal and endocrine health, digestive and microbiome health, immune health, allergies and intolerances, mental wellbeing, children’s health and supporting people experiencing complex or interconnected health concerns. I value an integrative approach to healthcare and believe naturopathic and conventional medicine can work alongside one another. Where additional investigation, diagnosis or care is required, I encourage collaboration with GPs, specialists and other appropriately qualified health professionals. Education is also an important part of my work. I want my clients to leave with a better understanding of their own bodies—not simply a list of things to take or avoid. My aim is to provide a supportive and nurturing space where clients feel heard, understood and empowered to take an active role in their health.
