Let me show you how
Hello there!
I’m Joanna, wholistic clinical naturopath, nutritionist and herbalist, and founder of Naturimedica Wholistic Wellcare.
I’ve been in clinical practice for 15+ years, first in Sydney, Australia and now, having made the ‘tree change’ a few years ago, I work and live by the beautiful Lake Macquarie in regional NSW. More about my background and healing journey HERE.
Have you noticed that nowadays many people just accept not feeling well, being tired all the time, having chronic indigestion or lingering aches and pains? They think that’s just the way it is for them now and in the future.
Do you think that, too?
The truth is that you don’t have to settle for feeling average or unwell, or run down, in pain or exhausted. The good news is that for each of us there is a best that we can feel, and it’s much better than you think!
As a Wholistic Natural & Lifestyle Therapist, my primary focus is on finding and addressing the root cause(s) of your health issues, as well as providing necessary symptom relief whilst the healing starts to happen.
I have a great passion for following Nature’s rhythms (circadian biology) combined with therapeutic nutrition supported by tailored natural remedies and supplements, to achieve optimal results for each client.
Watch this video to better understand who I am as a Wholistic Natural Therapist, why I do what I do, my therapeutic approach, conditions I specialise in, and much more.
I’m here to help!
Over my 15+ years of practice and clinical experience, I’ve developed extensive knowledge in applying food as medicine, dietary planning, nutritional and herbal supplementation and lifestyle adjustments aligned with Nature, to meet clients’ needs.
As a Wholistic Natural Therapist, I believe that lifestyle based on following circadian rhythms and wholesome nutrition are the foundation of our health and the key to having abundant energy, a healthy brain and good gut health, to name a few.
Because I’m personally dedicated to leading a healthy and active life (well, most of the time:), I’m committed to helping my clients to also achieve better health and wellbeing, no matter what their current circumstances or health status.
Importantly, my aim is also to educate my clients to ensure they have the knowledge and tools to help themselves to maintain health and vitality long term. Too often we are told ’what’ to eat or do, without understanding ‘why’ and ‘how to’, don’t you think?
I have a huge passion for using food as a therapeutic tool and for circadian biology, I firmly believe that both of them are the best place to start when it comes to health. As a self-confessed foodie, I love cooking and providing clients with delicious, easy to make recipes during their nutrition therapy, as well here on the website – check the blog for yummy recipes.
Every therapy I apply or recommend is both science-based using data from published studies AND based on traditional empirical evidence and naturopathic remedies used for centuries.
My approach is highly personalised, which is different to the conventional medicine’s “one size fits all” approach. One of the foundational principles of naturopathy is to ‘treat a person not a disease’, i.e. providing personalised therapies which can be different for people suffering from the same disease, as their health history and circumstances are unique.
Last but not least, I believe that care, respect and empathy are as important in healing as any scientific tools, drugs or natural remedies, as is taking the time to listen to client stories.
The Naturimedica Signature Blueprint
Most health programs promise quick fixes—but real, lasting wellness requires a clear plan that’s structured yet flexible enough to fit your life. That’s where the Naturimedica Signature Blueprint comes in. The Blueprint is the result of my experience of working with and listening to clients’ stories for the past 15 years.
It’s a unique framework combining the best of modern science and traditional natural therapies to help you build strong foundations for health, then personalise your journey based on your needs, goals and test results. Think of it as your map back to balance—a path that restores energy, sleep, hormones and resilience in a sustainable way.
The Blueprint encompasses a whole-person therapeutic approach to successfully address the most important aspects of being healthy and well, and living a thriving and active life. All the natural therapies and treatments I recommend and apply adhere to these principles – see more below – click on the image for a larger version.
Clients love it because it’s:
- Clear and structured, but never rigid
- Rooted in natural rhythms and biology
- Practical, adaptable, and proven in real life
