My Story

 

Caterina is highly regarded as a complementary medicine specialist having graduated from one of Australia’s leading Natural Therapies Colleges with her Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy plus 20+ years in her Melbourne based clinic.

 

Her reputation has seen clients travel from interstate and overseas specifically for her individualised treatments.

Combining her passion to improve women’s health with her experience of having 2 young children of her own, Caterina now specialises in the field of fertility including pre-conception care, pregnancy, labour and paediatrics.

After years of clinical experience, listening to clients from all walks of life, Caterina feels and sees the importance of a healthy start commencing from pre-conception through to toddlers to provide the optimal start to your child’s outstanding life.

 

Caterina ensures an integrative approach to each individual treatment strategy incorporating up to date evidence based medicine with traditional naturopathic philosophy to achieve optimal wellbeing and the best outcomes for her clients.

This highly professional approach extends to her dispensary where she uses only TGA registered practitioner only products. The reason why so many clients keep happily returning to see Caterina, (many also go on to bring along other family members as she continues to general family care practice) is because she senses the importance of connecting with each person as an individual. She takes the time to listen and understand each person. Through this innate and natural methodology, Caterina is able to create a safe, gentle and effective treatment plan with the use of natural medicine that encompasses the whole person yet made specifically to meet the needs of each individual.

Clients visit Caterina for results and leave happy.

 

Caterina utilises many modalities such as Naturopathy, Herbal medicine, Iridology, Nutrition, Food as medicine, Celloids, Massage, Emotional Freedom Technique, Flower Essences, Aromatherapy, Homeopathy, Reiki, Touch For Health (Kinesiology), Neuro Linguistic Programming and  lifestyle counselling when developing your individual therapeutic solutions to restore optimum vitality and health.
