Family Health Naturally
Bring the BEST of natural medicine and behavioural strategy together to bring health to your family
Hey Everyone,
I'm Christina, a Naturopath, Herbalist, GAPS Practitioner and Life Coach. I'm also a mother, wife, sister and friend. Over the last decade, I've been gaining the skills to help you learn to understand the language of both your body and your loved ones. Dis-ease stems from a range of different drivers, some physical ie, food, genetics, environment and some behavioural, emotions, personality type, love language and limiting beliefs.
When I'm working with my clients we unpack both the physical and emotional drivers that are contributing to the dis-ease in your life. After all, life is to short to spend it out of alignment. It's time to learn the skills and knowledge to create the amazing life you want to live.

I created Family Health Naturally to help you take control back of your health and the health of your family. I am a Naturopath, Herbalist, GAPS Practitioner, Alchemist, Apothecary, Fermentation Expert and Health Coach. I'm also a mother of 7 beautiful children, so I understand the challenges that many mothers face, trying to maintain the health of a growing family. I work with a passion to see people set free from the restrictions of illness and disease. Like many practitioners, my own journey arose from health issues that my family faced which lead me to pursue with vigour solutions for those health concerns, that didn't just cover up the problem but was actually focused on addressing why it was there in the first place, the root cause.
Learning with passion to bring health to our families.

Testimonials
Anita
Christina's help as we started out on the GAPS diet was invaluable. She understood the challenges and was able to advise me personally on issues that came up that were specific to our family. The insight she brought made it possible and gave me hope and encouragement to keep going. We have seen so many benefits, from my young daughters sleeping through the night instead of waking multiple times each, to my improved digestion and tolerance of many foods. I'm so thankful for her breadth of knowledge and her creativity with recipes!
Thaya
Christina is an amazing Coach with experience, empathy and professionalism. I really enjoyed having a session with her. She inspired me at a greater level and I will be continuing more sessions with her to work in different aspects of life. She easily identified the core issue and helped me to work towards the progress instantly. Her passion, love and commitment would take her to a very high level and I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Laura
You will not regret your time with Christina. Her knowledge is incredible, she has a genuine care for each and every family member and she always has the time to answer even your smallest questions. So thankful for the help she gave us, and look forward to utilising her in the future!
About me
Hi everyone, thank you for hanging out on my website. Family Health Naturally was a business that I dreamed up after Surviving Percreta. At the time I was already studying to be a Naturopath, but after being on life support that vision expanded and expanded in a big way. The more I saw clients and more healing I did for myself the more I saw a real need to be able to bring together my two loves, natural medicine and behavioural science. I've always been fascinated with the why people do the things they do, why that take actions that they know will hurt them and not take the actions they know will give them the results they want. Why is that? Why can it be so challenging to change? Which is where I continued my study and became a professional master coach, so I could help people on a more holistic front and instigate deep change, where they could truly take back the control of their lives and the health of their families. So they could spot the binge eating and the self-sabotaging behaviours, so they could form new patterns that allowed them to learn to love themselves and those around them more deeply.
