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!

Here are a few quick tips for weight loss, with the reasons why listed below. Weight loss can be challenging. Australia is gaining 6000 tonnes of fat per year, most weight loss programmes are NOT helping long term. Our weight loss programme focusses on FAT-LOSS and MUSCLE-GAIN and FLUID-BALANCE: this is the way to have sustained weight-loss long term without creating other health issues such as thyroid issues and diabetes.
- Eat a small portion of protein every 3-4 hours to keep your blood sugar balanced. Proteins and good fats contain little glucose which stores as fat. About 80-100g protein per meal, 5-6 x daily.
- Eat plenty of salad veggies and low-carb veggies. We need to eat 5-6 cupfuls of veggies per day to keep us alkaline throughout the weightloss process. The more acidic we are the less weight comes off.
- Know your thyroid numbers… take your temperature first thing in the morning before getting out of bed. If the temperature is less than 36.5 (consistently) your thyroid may be sluggish. Jacqueline Dekoke ND or I can prescribe natural supplements to help this problem. When the thyroid is dysfunctional it slows down every metabolic function in the body.
- Drink oodles of water. When the BMI is over 28 we find the body is ALWAYS dehydrated. Our high BMI and/or waist measurement over 88 are both high risks for many chronic diseases, which are also linked to dehydration and de-oxygenation of the body’s tissues. We get oxygen from breathing, water, and green leafy veggies.
- Avoid grains: rice, breads, cakes, biscuits, rolls… In weightloss grains have no value. Grains make the body more acidic which impacts negatively on weight loss. Grains are mostly carbohydrates and raise blood sugar, therefore causing the body to store fat.
- If weight loss doesn’t begin quickly, have yourself checked for the foods you are eating. Jacqueline Dekoke ND has a technique whereby we can find out if the body has an issue with particular foods. Sometimes we are eating a healthy food which isn’t doing us any favours – it may be making us acidic, not digesting and creating allergies, slow down our metabolism and cause tiredness and digestive issues.
Mostly, you need to know what your muscle mass is to start with. When we have held weight for a long time, we often lose muscle mass. This causes thyroid issues and chronic fatigue. Our Cellular Analysis (VLA) machine takes these measurements accurately and quickly. Therefore we can start you on the right treatments immediately to support your weight loss goals!

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!
