Vicki Turner
NATUROPATH, HERBALIST, NUTRIONIST, HOMOEOPATH
Director of Health & Fertility Matters
B,A, N.D; MATMS
Vicki Turner has a quality about her that every health practitioner should surely have: a glow of good health and vitality. She not only treats her patients – she inspires them.
“My journey into natural therapies began after a long period of ill-health in my mid-twenties. The overload of stress from studying and travelling and having a 'good time' took its toll on my body. Orthodox medical treatments were not resolving my health issues, which was so frustrating. Then someone suggested I see a Naturopath. Not only did my health improve dramatically, but I was shown my true career pathway and a new meaning for life. From that very first appointment, there was no turning back.”
Now, after more than 25 years of clinical naturopathic medicine practice, learning, researching and fine tuning her skills, Vicki has established an integrated holistic clinic, where Western Alternative Medicine truly meets and blends with Traditional Chinese Medicine, to provide patients with the best pathway to health and wellbeing.
Vicki treats a very wide variety of health issues, from digestive to immune system problems to skin and allergies, low energy and exhaustion, to stress, sleep issues, anxiety and depression. After years of training and clinical practice, acquiring the skills to help so many people, she expanded her work into the specialty of reproductive health.
