Naturopathic FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Are you looking for a holistic approach to natural health? Contact Caroline today to discuss how naturopathy can assist or refer to our common questions below for more information.
I would like to have a baby. Should I book an Individual or Couple Fertility Consultation?
I see both individual (one person) and couples for fertility consultations.
If you are single, please proceed to booking an ‘Individual Consultation’
If you are in a couple and both partners are onboard and committed to improving their health through naturopathic care, then I recommend a ‘Fertility Couple Consultation’. This provides an opportunity to support both male and female fertility and it continues the team-effort approach, regardless of who is deemed to have the fertility issue.
However, if only one partner is wishing to explore naturopathic care then I am more than happy to do an ‘Individual Consultation’ focusing on the health of just one person in the couple.
What do I need to do before my consultation?
Please complete the registration forms which are emailed to you within your booking confirmation. Please also collate any blood tests or other pathology results and current medications / supplements and bring with you (or a photo) to the consultation.

Is extra testing available?
- Functional pathology testing
- Integrated pathology testing to check hormones, stress levels, deficiencies & toxicities, and more
- 500+ food biocompatibility hair test
Where do I park?
Parking is 2 hr paid meter parking on surrounding streets (James St, West Ave & Park Ave). It is recommended you over-estimate the time required for your consultation for the parking meter.
What are my payment options?
Preferred payment options are credit & debit cards via Square or direct debit.
Can I claim through private health insurance?
Unfortunately, as of 1st April 2019, naturopathic consultations are no longer claimable through your private health insurance. Although, this is currently under governmental review. We will inform you of any progress!
Do you offer online consultations?
All consultations booked online are for face-to-face appointments at my Burleigh Heads clinic.
However, I do offer online consultations via Zoom on request. Please contact me directly if you are unable to attend in person and request an online consultation.
If you live within distance, it is preferred the first initial consultation is a face-to-face, then subsequent can be via Zoom.
