Naturopathy is identifying and correcting the root cause of your health issues.
At Darling Health, our naturopaths focus on understanding and addressing the root cause of your health concerns by combining diet, herbal, and nutritional treatments alongside counselling and stress management techniques to support your body’s innate capacity to heal.
Grounded in the latest scientific research, we use evidence-based functional testing to guide our care. By working closely with medical specialists, we provide holistic, patient-centred care designed to support your overall well-being.

What to expect during your first naturopathy consultation
Your initial consultation is available both in our Sydney clinic and online via TeleHealth. During this session, we will take a thorough look at your health history, including your lifestyle, diet, sleep patterns, mental well-being, and any current symptoms. We’ll ask questions to gain a clearer understanding of your health goals and may recommend functional testing if needed. From there, we’ll create a personalised treatment plan to support your body’s innate capacity to heal.
What is functional testing?
Functional testing is an advanced diagnostic approach that helps identify the underlying causes of your health concerns. We use a range of testing methods, including hair, blood, urine, and stool analysis, to gain deeper insights into any potential roadblocks to your optimal health. The results help to determine the most effective course of action and personalise a treatment plan to re-route your health trajectory.

Naturopathic Principles
We prioritise “First, Do No Harm” by focusing on safe, gentle therapies that work with the “Healing Power of Nature” to support the body’s innate healing ability. Our approach is to “Treat the Cause”, addressing the root of health issues rather than just the symptoms, and to “Treat the Whole Person”, considering body, mind, and spirit. As “Doctors as Teachers”, we empower and educate our patients. We also emphasise “Disease Prevention and Health Promotion” to encourage long-term wellness, striving for balance and overall “Wellness” in every treatment plan.
