Allergy testing is something that there’s a lot of controversy about these days. Many naturopathic clinics are being told that they can’t do allergy testing. Weird, huh? It seems to be an issue that the government has taken to heart, that only drugs can effectively treat allergies.
So what do we do if we don’t want to use drugs which suppress allergic symptoms such as sinusitis, asthma, hayfever, itchy eyes, itchy skin… not to mention issues such as bloating, burping, belching, wind, flatulence or more debilitating issues such as eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.
Around 75-80% of babies are born with an allergic immune system these days. Therefore they are more likely to develop issues such as food intolerances and allergies. Partly this is because our bodies are much more acidic these days. As this is a huge reason for miscarriage, the body deliberately goes into the opposite immune position to miscarriage, which is the allergic immune condition…
Our clinic has fabulous results with allergies and intolerances because we use a variety of testing and treatments.
- We use live blood analysis to determine how well the immune system is functioning. There are particular signs in the blood that let us know if the body is more likely to be an allergic one or not.
- We use other blood tests such as candida, helicobacter and celiac testing to find underlying gut issues which predispose us to health problems such as allergies and intolerances.
- We use urine testing such as urinary indicans and ph testing to find out how much bad gut bacteria we have and how acidic the body is. These can both be linked to poor immunity.
- We also use a variety of kinesiology techniques which lower the body’s stress in relation to a particular allergen – we can find whether or not things are alleries or intolerances, or even whether it’s just an energy mismatch – an energy mismatch is when the body doesn’t ‘know’ what to do with something. For example, if we eat spelt flour for the first time in our lives, and the body doesn’t know what to do with it, we may get symptoms of bloating, but this may be because the body just doesn’t know what to do with it… we can balance that out…

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!

Have you been worried about your arthritis or the drugs you need to take to reduce your pain? We can help, right here in our beautiful professional clinic in Wynnum, Brisbane! With our Chronic Pain Programme you can use simple naturopathic treatments such as natural pain products and Frequency Specific Microcurrent to get you on your way!
Normal medical tests often miss out on some basic information that can really create an environment in your body where arthritis will just continue. Our naturopathic tests such as live blood analysis, our urine and blood tests and our cellular analysis (VLA) give loads of information that we can then work on with you to improve!
- how acidic are you??? We often see people 200 x more acidic then they should be, that means the minerals (calcium & magnesium) are being pulled from your bones, making them more brittle;
- how hydrated are you? The less hydrated the more acidic and inflamed your body is – see point 1!!
- where is your BMI? If your body mass index is over 30 (20% higher than perfect weight), the body is an inflammatory, stress creating, insulin resistant machine. That means that you’ll be more inflamed and acidic…
Are you seeing a pattern here? Therefore we work on, you guessed it, inflammation and acidity!!! Our frequency specific microcurrent machine helps to target specific areas of the body and reduces inflammation such as joints, tendons, bursa, joints, vertabra etc.
Talk to us today, and fix your arthritis! In our Chronic Pain Programme (payment plan) you also get other benefits such as:
- 1/2 price massage therapies with Katheine Lynn & Cherice Day (until we are fully booked)
- 1/2 price kinesiology sessions
- 1/2 price infrared saunas
- 1/2 price allergy testing and treatments with Jacqueline Dekoke and lots more!!!

Approaching his third birthday, my son was displaying the systems normally associated with ADHD and I was extremely concerned. I am so glad I decided to give Madonna a go at New leaf Natural Therapies. After performing a Live Blood Analysis on him, she then treated him with Kinesiology and Naturopathy. After about two weeks I noticed a positive change in his behaviour and people started commenting on his improvement soon after that. His screaming, frequent tantrums, crying and gagging are a thing of the past and he is now a happy, sweet boy with a hearty appetite! All achieved with the power of nature, rather than the horrors of drugs like Ritalin.
Thankyou Madonna and team.

Natural strategies for asthma have improved hugely over the last five years. Breathing is such a natural process that it’s hard to imagine the lungs conspiring to stop us…however, it now happens to many, many Australians each year!
2.2 million adults have asthma (1/10) and 1/6 children (the third highest rate of childhood asthma in the world!
Around 400 deaths per year are a result of asthma and around 60% of these are fully preventable – even moreso when the lungs and respiratory system are supported with natural therapies… it takes time, but it may save your life!
New Leaf Natural Therapies have strategies to help you improve your lungs and take control of your life!
- natural supplements strong enough to create an anti-inflammatory process within the lungs: thereby allowing us to reduce medication as appropriate
- supplements and frequency specific microcurrent help to repair the lungs and bronchial tissue which has been inflamed for so long
- reduce allergens and allergic tendencies: the number one reason for asthma attacks – we do treatments to improve allergic tendencies: these include supplements; kinesiology and frequency specific microcurrent. In our live blood analysis testing we usually find massive levels of eosinophils (allergy markers in the bloodstream) in asthmatics. We consistenly find these improve over time with this combination of treatments.
- repair the gut! We find that just about 100% of our clients with asthma have ‘leaky gut syndrome’ in our Live Blood Analysis. The tissue in the gut (endothelial tissue) is identical to that of the lungs and inflammation tends to happen simultaneously in both areas with affected asthmatics. So ‘leaky lung syndrome’ and ‘leaky gut syndrome‘ go hand in hand!
- Many chronic coughs are a result of either subclinical asthmatic tendencies or allergies. It is important to get to the bottom of it as these coughs can last for years!
- Asthmatics tend to have low oxygen levels due to inefficient lungs: increasing substances like co-enzyme Q10 and oxygen supplements help the body to re-oxygenate.

I decided to enrol in the Corrective Care Programme to improve my body. I was extremely interested to see the live blood cell analysis which picked a number of deficiencies that I was not even aware I had. Madonna and her very capable team have made a huge difference to my ongoing good health. Thank you all. ~ Susan K.

Well, this week we chatted about a few cool topics:
What can we do to increase longevity (and how can we start reversing ‘genetically predisposed health problems’?)
- There has been very cool research in the past twelve months about genes. And yes, they can be reversed and turned around…have you been blaming your health problems on genes and therefore been doing nothing about them? Well, these days we can look at your blood with Live Blood Analysis and see whether or not genes have been activated. We can tell if your body is chronically inflamed (which is also known to activate ‘bad’ genes) and also prescribe therapeutic doses of nutrients in order to start reversing these processes.
- Keeping your body more alkaline is one of the proven ways of protecting your genes: plenty of filtered water and 6-7 cups of veggies every day!!! The more acidic we are the more chronic disease we have. Simple.
- Maintaining a healthy body weight: this is the one thing that has been known for 50 years to help with longevity and wellbeing. The higher our Body Mass Index is the more likely we are to develop heart disease, diabetes and cancer, just to name a few problems.
Take care, and see you next week!!!

You can have Pain Relief without drugs at New Leaf Natural Therapies. Our lovely clinic in Wynnum provides a range of services: if you live elsewhere here are some ideas for you to look for when finding a clinic to take care of your pain – you too, can have pain relief without drugs, pain relief without medication!
Find the reasons for your pain and FIX THEM! What? There are reasons for my pain? Find a clinic that can do some scientific testing/treatments in order to achieve the following outcomes…
- How acidic are you? Knowing this number (both saliva and urinary) and working towards the optimal ph (7.2-7.35) will halt the destruction of joints, bones and organs. Acidity creates an environment where just about every health problem can be created. Jacqueline Dekoke ND recently had a client with massive health issues and got his acidity from 5.5 to 7.4 within 4 weeks. Then the healing can begin!
- How much excess fluid is your body holding? Our VLA or Bio-impedance analysis machine let’s us know EXACTLY how much fluid is inside the cells and how much fluid is on the outside. This also let’s us know how much excess fluid your body is holding. WHY? Because the body is clever, and it’s trying to dilute toxins, acidity and inflammation. We find that this process takes some time: we have trillions of cells in our body and to detoxify each one, takes a lot of time!
- Massage therapies: Find yourself a fabulous massage therapist, like Ms Katherine Lynn or Ms Cherice Day, someone who can put together a treatment plan for you. If your massage therapist has a plan – then work with them and trust them. If it doesn’t feel like they’re helping you with your pain relief, then find someone else. For example, with Alison’s combination of reflexology, remedial massage, shiatsu, lymphatic drainage and acupuncture, she’s a perfect choice – find a passionate massage therapist who’ll get your pain issues under control.
- How inflamed are you? We use several testing processes to find out how inflamed you are: Live Blood Analysis (signs such as fibrin, rouleaux, blood stickiness, protoplasts, red crystals…); bio-impedance analysis (let’s us know how leaky and stressed your cells are). Once you know how inflamed your body is you can use natural anti-inflammatories with NO SIDE EFFECTS such as kinex AI, kaprex and inflavonoid intensive care. We also use Frequency Specific Microcurrent for reducing inflammation and regeneration of joints, ligaments and tendons.
It’s time to find your own natural therapies clinic that can do that for you!

There have been new government regulations enforced this year in relation to allergy testing and treatments and is targeting natural therapy clinics.
There have been several natural health clinics targeted for doing allergy testing and treatments in Brisbane this year due to new government regulations. The government position is that ‘There is no treatment for allergies’, therefore anyone claiming that they treat allergies will be targeted. These clinics have been asked to write to each and every one of their past clients stating that allergies cannot be treated. So, can allergies be treated??
What Can New Leaf Natural Therapies do to help Allergies, sensitivities and intolerances?
We start with an initial live blood analysis to get an idea about how allergic your body is. The eosinophils (white blood cells) are the allergy-markers, and the higher the percentage of the eosinophills, the more allergic your body is. We can also see ‘how active’ your immune system is – since the blood is live, we see ‘movement’ of the white blood cells within 10 minutes or so, so we will know whether or not your immune system is functional, or whether it needs support. The less functional immunity, the less likely your body can deal with other things like bacteria, parasites, viruses, viral particles AND dealing with cancer cells.
As eosinophils are only in the blood for 3 hours (once released they travel through the blood to the area where the allergic reaction is taking place), if people suspect an allergy, for example wheat or dairy, we often ask them to eat some before their visit to see how raised the levels are. If the eosinophil level is normal, we know that it’s not an allergy to those foods.
We use a combination of natural supplements which help to boost natural immunity and reduce the number of eosinophils. There are 3 key types of cells involved in this process – Th1 cells are suppressed, Th2 cells (allergic process) are raised and Th3 cells are dysfunctional. This is the key to good health and wellbeing, and an immune system which is working beautifully.
Jacqueline Dekoke ND, Linda Hoggard ND and Madonna Guy ND all have many years of experience in dealing with the underlying causes of allergies, balancing the immune system and cleansing the body of toxins which may upset the balance of the immune system.
