Lauren Wood Naturopathy

Lauren is a Bachelor level qualified Naturopathic Practitioner and Mum of 3 beautiful boys. She is so passionate about Naturopathic medicine and seeing the positive impact that it has on people's lives. Lauren takes a functional approach when treating her patients to ensure treatment is targeted, specific and achieves real results. She is a strong believer in investigating the root cause to truly heal an individual.

Gastrointestinal Health

Lauren has a keen interest in gut health and the overall digestive system. Experiencing chronic gut health issues of her own and healing her gastrointestinal system, she understands the ins and outs. She has personally undergone all the testing (conventional and naturopathic) and has so much empathy for just how much of a burden this can be on quality of life. 

She has undergone extensive training in the gut health space, in particular SIBO (the most common driver of IBS) and studying the Microbiome where we now have access to Shotgun Metagenomic Sequencing, which tests the DNA of the microbes residing in the microbiome. This information has been transformational in that we can now manipulate the microbiome in a targeted way and are achieving such phenomenal results.
