We’re so pleased you’re considering coming to see us. The type of first appointment you have will depend on whether you need immediate pain relief or whether you’d like to delve straight away into finding out what’s going on in your body.
Please note that you can make your first appointment immediately by booking online. If you have questions or would prefer to book in over the phone, please call us on 9876 8786 or use our contact form and we’ll call you.
Do you want immediate pain relief?
For immediate pain relief, we usually recommend an Initial Neuro Needling Treatment and Assessment. This a one-off introductory appointment so that our practitioner, Scott Hankinson, has time to accurately understand your condition before he begins your treatment.
Since he is also a naturopath, Scott will give you some basic naturopathic advice during your assessment and may recommend some nutritional or herbal medicines to speed up your body’s healing process. To book your first Neuro Needling treatment online, please click here.
If needles are not your cup of tea, it may help you to know that many people who are afraid of needles find their worries are unfounded once they have a treatment. The needles used are extremely fine – thinner than a human hair – and many people don’t even feel them go in. Occasionally you may feel a slight twinge which may be momentarily a little painful, but it is very different to ‘being stuck’ with a hypodermic needle or pin.
We also offer an excellent pain relief technique called Biomesotherapy. Biomesotherapy is used by many top sports teams in Europe and is used extensively in Germany by medical doctors. It involves the injection of saline solution into specific points in combination with homeopathic remedies. In rare instances where acupuncture does not relieve pain, Biomesotherapy can often be of assistance. To book your first Biomesotherapy treatment online, click here.
The Full Shebang?
You can of course come for an Neuro Needling or Biomesotherapy Treatment combined with a full Initial Comprehensive Consultation (instead of a basic Assessment) if you would like to.

Do you want to find out what’s occurring inside your body and how to correct it?
If this applies to you we recommend coming for a either a Comprehensive or Standard Initial Consultation.
Both consultations have in-depth time with our naturopath, where he assesses your health history and discusses your situation with you.
However, we always recommend the Comprehensive consultation (1 hour) as this also includes non-invasive clinical testing, giving our practitioner a much deeper insight into your particular health situation.
This longer appointment can assist our practitioner with identifying the body systems that are dysfunctional and are a priority for treatment, and assesses whether factors such as bacteria, chemical disturbances, heavy metals, fungi, hormonal imbalances and parasites may be impacting your health. To book an Initial COMPREHENSIVE Consultation, click here.
Our Standard Consultation is 40 minutes and does not include the testing. To book an Initial Standard Consultation, click here.
Do you want ongoing support to achieve your health goals?
We offer a 6 month health program which is very comprehensive and excellent value. The program has two stages.
In the first stage, we conduct extensive testing to get an extremely detailed and complete understanding of your health status.
In the second stage, you see our practitioner for weekly treatments and monthly consultations, supported by ongoing testing to ensure we stay on track with your body as it changes.
Our programs are all inclusive – consultations, treatments and natural medicines, there is nothing more to pay.
Our practitioner will discuss health programs with you during your second or third consultation if he feels long term support would be helpful for you. Or, if you think this is something that you would like to do, please let us know and we can fast track the discussion.
