Skin health can be impacted by various physiological, psychological and environmental changes. Our naturopaths and nutritionists recognise the multiple functions of the skin, our largest organ. We treat skin conditions using a holistic approach, with the aim of improving things from the inside to the outside, so that the health of the skin reflects the internal health of the body.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can a naturopath help with acne?
A naturopath can look at underlying contributors to acne such as hormonal imbalance, gut health and diet, and build a personalised plan alongside any treatment prescribed by your GP or dermatologist.
Can naturopathy help with eczema or psoriasis?
Yes — naturopathic support for eczema and psoriasis often focuses on gut health, food triggers and inflammation, working alongside your dermatologist’s treatment plan.
What causes skin issues that naturopathy might help address?
Skin issues frequently relate to gut health, hormone balance, nutrient status, stress and food sensitivities — a naturopath can help investigate which of these may be relevant for you through testing and a detailed health history.
Can diet really make a difference to skin health?
For many people diet plays a meaningful role in skin health, particularly for inflammatory conditions — a naturopath can help identify potential trigger foods and build a sustainable, nutrient-dense eating pattern.
Do I need a referral to see a naturopath for skin concerns?
No referral is needed — you can book directly for the Geelong or Bellarine/Drysdale clinic, or via telehealth.
