When winter arrives, cold air, wind and lower humidity come along with it. Combined with hot indoor heating, your skin can become dry and itchy during winter, sometimes leading to eczema flare ups. Prevent eczema flare ups during winter with our 3-way holistic approach to protect, nourish and relieve your sensitive skin.
Your skin is your body’s largest organ and its major role is to act as a physical barrier to the outside world. When your skin is healthy it protects you from allergens and infections, but in winter the skin barrier can become compromised and cause eczema and dermatitis flare ups.
To prevent eczema flare ups during winter, you need take a 3-way approach;
- Protect your skin barrier from the outside
- Nourish your skin barrier from the inside
- Manage your food and airborne triggers with Positive Association Technique (PAT)

Do you notice that you experience uncomfortable gluten sensitivity symptoms when you eat too much gluten? Even though your test results have come back all clear? Not only is it a real thing, but you can get relief from gluten sensitivity symptoms too!
It used to be thought that only those with coeliac disease react to the protein gluten found in wheat, barley and rye grains. But recent studies now suggest that sensitivity to gluten affects up to 13 per cent of the population. However, gluten sensitivity is difficult to diagnose using medical diagnostic methods, so most cases are self-reported.
In our clinics we see many Positive Association Technique (PAT) clients reporting gluten sensitivity symptoms. Using muscle testing we’re not only able to confirm their suspicions, but also provide relief from gluten sensitivity symptoms with our completely natural, innovative treatment method called PAT.
In this episode, we cover the factors that have contributed to the rise of gluten reactions, the different ways gluten can affect people, and most importantly how we can help.

Some naturally occurring food chemicals have now been given the title ‘anti-nutrients’ and depending on which research paper you read they are either to be avoided or heartily included in each meal.
Generally a diet of unprocessed whole foods will improve your health, but for some individuals over eating certain types of these foods can cause problems.
Our PAT Expert Naturopath Jenny takes us through the most common anti-nutrients (oxalates, lectins, tannins and phytates) and how certain preparation methods can be beneficial as part of a healthy diet.

Have you ever wondered about the cause of your salicylate intolerance issues?
What if we told you that no matter what kind of food chemical intolerance you're dealing with - be it to salicylates, amines or glutamates - you're likely to be struggling with an underlying issue with your sulphation pathway?
As we cover in our latest episode with our PAT Expert Naturopath Jenny, your liver is responsible for packaging up food chemicals and flushing them out of your system. But when this system isn't doing it's job properly, these food chemicals can accumulate and cause issues.
So, what causes issues with your sulphation pathway?...

Positive Association Technique (PAT) is a natural allergy treatment performed by qualified Naturopaths that helps relieve the symptoms of allergies, sensitivities and intolerances using a combination of muscle testing and acupressure techniques.
We've mentioned PAT on a few of our episodes, so for the last episode of 2023 PAT Expert Naturopath Jenny and I take a deep dive into how this technique works!
Summer is here and for some of us that means hitting the gym and watching what we eat, especially before all the Christmas feasts! Although since this time of year is so busy, it’s easy to be enticed by processed foods that are labeled as “healthy” or “sugar free”, in an attempt to cut down on calories. Although, many of these foods actually contain sugar substitutes that can cause issues in sensitive people.
So today, Jenny is going to give us a run down of the different types of sugar substitutes commonly found in these foods, and the effects they can have on our bodies, especially for those of us with allergies and sensitivities.
As many of us have heard, the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has officially confirmed that we have moved into an El Nino weather pattern, and with that comes the predictions of a severe bushfire season in Australia.

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a complicated disorder characterized by extreme fatigue, that may worsen with physical or mental activity, but doesn't improve with rest.
CFS can occur at any age, but it most commonly affects people in their 40s and 50s, and more women than men.
Up to 90 per cent of people with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) also have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Studies have also found abnormal levels of specific gut bacteria in those with CFS. These links have spurred research into the gut-brain axis in the search of the underlying drivers of CFS.
The gut-brain axis (GBA) describes the bi-directional communication between the central and enteric nervous system. Linking emotional and cognitive centers of the brain and peripheral intestinal functions.
Food intolerances and allergies can trigger symptoms similar to those of chronic fatigue syndrome. These reactions also drive inflammation in the gut which can contribute to gut bacterial imbalance and leaky gut.
