Gut Health

Poor gut health has been linked to a wide range of conditions such as digestive concerns, weight loss or weight gain, autoimmune disease, skin problems, fatigue and sleep disturbances and unexplained mood disorders.

By treating the health of your gut using our nutritional and naturopathic approach, we can help you achieve an overall sense of health, wellbeing and vitality.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a naturopath help with IBS or bloating?

A naturopath can investigate underlying drivers of IBS and bloating, such as food intolerances, gut bacteria imbalance and stress, and build a personalised plan around diet, testing and lifestyle changes. Book a consultation to discuss your symptoms.

What tests does Living Holistic Health use for gut health issues?

Depending on your symptoms, testing may include comprehensive stool/microbiome analysis, food intolerance testing, or SIBO breath testing, giving a clearer picture than symptoms alone.

Can naturopathy help with food intolerances?

Yes — a naturopath can help identify likely trigger foods through testing and structured elimination, then rebuild a varied, sustainable diet around what your gut tolerates well.

How long does it typically take to see improvement in gut symptoms?

This varies by individual and condition, but many clients notice initial changes within 4–8 weeks of starting a personalised plan, with deeper gut repair often taking longer.

Do I need a referral to see a naturopath for gut health?

No referral is needed — you can book directly online or by phone for either the Geelong or Bellarine/Drysdale clinic, or via telehealth.
