I’m a Naturopath and GAPS Practitioner with over 22 years of experience, specialising in gut health and its impact on the rest of the body — particularly skin health, food intolerances, and immune function. My interest in digestive health grew out of my own experience. I lived with long-term fatigue and health issues that worsened after the birth of my son. I was eventually diagnosed with autoimmune low thyroid function, linked to increased intestinal permeability (commonly referred to as "leaky gut"). I now support my digestion as part of managing my health — a challenge that’s given me firsthand insight into how difficult dietary changes can be in real life. Because of this, I go beyond identifying the underlying cause in my clinical work. I provide practical support — including recipes and strategies for gut health while managing food sensitivities. I aim to make dietary changes feel realistic and sustainable. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science (Complementary Medicine), an Advanced Diploma of Health Science (Naturopathy), a Diploma of Health in Nutrition, a Diploma of Health in Herbal Medicine and I am a certified GAPS practitioner. Alongside clinic work, I’ve worked in the health food industry and have provided education to pharmacy assistants, fellow practitioners, and the general public across Australia.

I’m a qualified dietitian specialising in longevity, performance, and personalised nutrition for high-performing professionals. Using my signature The Longevity Protocol™, I help executives and driven individuals reverse biological age, improve energy, and stay sharp for decades to come. My approach starts with the science, DNA and biomarker testing, then turns your data into a clear, personalised protocol tailored to your body and goals. No guesswork. No one-size-fits-all advice. Just strategic action based on who you are and how you want to age. If you're ready to protect your healthspan, feel better now, and stay strong as you get older, you're in the right place. Here’s how it works: 1. Test Don’t Guess We start with advanced genetic and biomarker testing to uncover your true health baseline. 2. Precision Protocol I design a personalised nutrition, supplement, and lifestyle strategy based on your unique data. 3. Long-Term Integration We implement the plan step-by-step, with expert support, check-ins, and adjustments as needed. If you're ready to stop guessing, take control of your health, and feel better every year, book a free discovery call to see if we’re a fit.

When I came to Naturopathy, it was to resolve my personal health challenges. I felt let down by the current medical model and lost in a plethora of information to get to the bottom of why I was feeling just terrible, despite being one of the ‘healthiest’ people I knew! I was unable to get the support I needed from our medical system, constrained by unrealistically short appointments and with no clearly diagnosed illness. Ultimately, I was compelled to look for answers elsewhere, finding them in the world of natural therapies and a wholistic approach. My commitment to all my patients is to make sure you get the support you need, to go beyond the surface level approach, understand the drivers behind your symptoms, and identify which changes can help you get back on top of your game. Let’s make this life one of joy and resilience!

Freya Clayhills - Accredited Exercise Physiologist | Founder, Annex Health Freya Clayhills is an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with over 10 years of experience helping people improve their health, function and confidence through evidence-based exercise and lifestyle support. Throughout her career, Freya has worked across chronic pain, musculoskeletal rehabilitation, persistent fatigue, autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, hypermobility and complex health presentations.

Freya founded Annex Health to provide a more personalised approach for people who often feel that standard exercise or rehabilitation programs don't quite fit their condition. Her work brings together exercise physiology, symptom and activity patterns, recovery, lifestyle factors and objective health data to build practical strategies around the individual. Her approach is centred around The Annex Method™: Decode. Stabilise. Build. First understanding what may be influencing a person's symptoms, then creating greater stability and predictability, before progressively building strength, fitness and capacity for everyday life. Freya's goal is simple: to help people better understand their body, feel confident managing their health, and build the capacity to do more of what matters to them.

Hi my name is Ali, I'm a qualified Naturopath and a rural girl at heart, I value open and honest practitioner-client relationships. In my teenage years, I experienced ongoing health challenges and underwent extensive testing, but struggled to find answers. I often felt unheard and overlooked, even when working with trusted practitioners. This experience led me to explore alternative approaches more deeply. When I came across the idea of naturopathy, something clicked. I felt drawn to understand the body on a deeper level and support others who may feel the same frustration. My goal is to help people feel seen, heard, and supported in their health journey. My practice is centred on understanding the underlying drivers of your health concerns, by looking at the whole picture, not just your symptoms. I use a blend of traditional and evidence-based naturopathy to create practical treatment plans that are thoughtful, individualised and align with your life, to support lasting, realistic change. You’ll be listened to, supported, and guided with clarity every step of the way, so you can feel informed and confident in your health journey.
