Welcome to the Bendigo Natural Health Clinic
Whole person Naturopathy for building and restoring the fundamentals of good long term health.
Established in 2005 by degree qualified, Bendigo Naturopath and Homeopath, Gelinda Deacon, the clinic provides safe, effective, evidence-based treatment and support for a wide range of conditions.
Are you aiming for health creation rather than just disease management? Do you want to take a more proactive role and preventative approach to your and your families health?
Here’s how Naturopathy can help:
Guided by a core set of principles that define its philosophy and approach to healthcare, Naturopathy:
focuses on supporting and enhancing the Viz medicatrix naturae -the inherent ability of the body to maintain and restore its own health given the right conditions.
embraces the holistic concept of treating the whole person, understanding that it is the harmonious functioning of all aspects of an individual (mind, body, spirit) that gives rise to health and wellbeing.
recognises that each person is unique in their susceptibilities and ways of manifesting illness.
is guided by the principal of identifying and treating the root cause and the aggravating factors of disease.
recognises that there is a hierarchy to treatment choices and uses gentle, non-toxic treatment strategies to restore health.
Naturopathy and Homeopathy can help with a wide range of conditions in babies and children, older adults and everyone in between!

Whether you are dealing with short or long term complaints, loss of wellbeing or want to focus on preventative healthcare, complementary medicine and a “whole person” approach can help.

Getting Started…
Organise an Appointment either In clinic or on line. Personally I prefer to meet in clinic for our first appointment if possible.!
Initial Appointments (60 -80 mins) Cost $140
All new clients are required to complete a comprehensive patient history to be submitted prior to your first appointment.
This allows you the time and space to consider your complaints in the light of a thorough holistic assessment and is key to understanding the underlying causes of illness and for providing individualised treatment.
Remember to include details of any test results or investigations and recent treatments
The Adult Patient History Form and Children’s Patient History Form can be found on the Resources Page. Click Here
Follow Up Appointment (30 - 60 minutes) Cost $90
It is important to assess and fine tune treatment plans to help you stay on track and ensure steady progress.
Usually this is after 2, 3 or 4 weeks of treatment depending on the nature of the complaint.
