Are you trying to find out about celiac disease – complications to avoid and how can we live a long and healthy life with Celiac disease? Celiacs is a disease which attacks the intestinal wall when there is gluten in the diet… we find, in our natural therapies clinic, that there is much that can be done to support the main symptoms initially, and healing and creating long-term health after the symptoms have eased.
Firstly, have you been tested and found out you have celiac? Or have you suffered all of the symptoms but have been tested and found that it’s negative. Did you know that of the gluten intolerant people in Australia (of which ALL of the symptoms of celiac can be found) only around 3% are actually celiac. Up to 97% of people who have gluten intolerance have a wide variety of the symptoms. There are many false readings, even with a full small intestinal biopsy test.
Symptoms of celiac disease:
- tummy pain
- general malabsorption of our diet
- losing weight
- feeling sickly and ‘off’ a lot, nausea
- nutritional deficiencies such as iron, B12 and vitamin D
- magnesium, calcium and potassium deficiences
- constipation and/or diarrhoea (more often loose bowels)
- zinc, fibre, B vitamin deficiency
- long term: various immune system issues and much higher risk of cancers
What can be done naturally at New Leaf Natural Therapies?
- reducing stress through Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM), Kinesiology and Massage
- Healing the gut lining with FSM and nutritional supplements for gut repair
- start reversing the chronic fatigue with FSM, Kinesiology and nutritional supplements
- supporting weight gain or weight loss with better gut absorption
- allergy testing using kinesiology to determine other foods/substances causing gut issues
What tests can we do to find how ‘out of whack’ the system is, and to monitor improvement?
- Live Blood Analysis
- Helicobacter
- Candida
- Allergy Testing
- Bioimpedance analysis (finding inflammation levels – impact on gut healing)

Feeling tired all the time? Exhausted? Burnt out? Did you know that it’s not just a symptom – it’s a sign that some crucial bodily functions aren’t working properly! Medical tests just don’t find anything MOST of the time, but if you’re sick of feeling zonked, then read on!!
How long since you woke up feeling energised?? Have you been feeling tired all the time? Exhausted from the moment you get up, unless you use stimulants – sugar, coffee & tea, cigarettes, stress… Needing these stimulants is a sign that your cells aren’t functioning properly. Medically, nothing can be done until a disease is present, but trust me, you DON’T want to wait until you’re a medical mess.
Here’s a 7 part process to more energy! Talk to us today and get your journey started!
- Have a cellular analysis (VLA) and find out how much energy your cells are giving you. Your Active Tissue Mass (muscle) is what feeds your energy cycle. With low quality muscle mass and low amounts of muscle mass, your cells ARE NOT GIVING YOU ENERGY! Work on improving your muscle mass!
- Have a look at your cells with Live Blood Analysis: there are 2 types of anaemia we see regularly – Iron deficiency and B12/folate deficiency. We regularly find both types of anaemia in Live Blood Analysis with Chronically Tired People.
- How acidic are you? We do urine tests which let us know if you are acidic – if your body has a ph (acidity) of 6.5 or lower (more acidic) than the body is working harder than it needs to: it has a harder time hydrating your cells, detoxifying your cells, removing inflammation, killing bacteria, viruses, helicobacter, parasites and more.
- Remove inflammation: With live blood analysis and cellular analysis we know how inflamed you are, this gives us a starting point. We use infrared saunas, natural supplements, massage therapies, frequency specific microcurrent, structural kinesiology to reduce inflammation.
- huge doses of fish oils that are heavy metal free. Now, this sounds easier than it is, since nearly every supplement claims to be free of toxins. However, did you know the government rules on toxicity are a joke? We only recommend Metagenics fish oils and 100% of their range is completely non-toxic, whereas most ranges are very dodgy. You then need a therapeutic dose of the fish oils to reduce inflammation and allow the cells to function a little better!
- Removing anesthetics: even dental work can impact on energy levels, having moles removed, veins stripped. Tiny amounts of anesthetics can attach to nerve membranes and stop them from being functional, hindering the nerve conduction in the body. We use B12 (at least 2000mg daily); infrared saunas and frequency specific microcurrent to pull anesthetics out of your body.
- Detoxify! Our Foundations of Health Programme is a 9 month programme which works through the body’s filters 1 by 1 and cleanses them. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is linked to all of the filters being clogged, hindering nerve and cellular conduction. We work through balancing the ph (acidity) as well as cleansing the gut (candida, parasites, helicobacter, fungus, leaky gut, allergens); the liver; the immune system and the kidneys.
So don’t despair, if you’re feeling really tired, you need to start at the beginning and treat the symptoms initially, and then cleanse, cleanse, cleanse! Slowly but surely, you’ll get better and better. Start your journey today – call Gabby or Helen on 3348 6098!
