About Chantelle...
I am a Naturopath, Medical Herbalist, and Fertility Educator. I help women to turn around their health and feel amazing – especially whilst navigating through lifes challenges such as stress, anxiety, grief, dieting & weight loss, puberty, infertility, menopause, and hormones gone wild.
You will benefit from a combination of therapies such as: targeted supplements, herbal medicine, nutrition, massage, coaching, fertility charting and functional testing.

My interests
I live in the beautiful Taupō region of New Zealand, with my husband and our much loved pets. Outside of Clinic, and research, I love to spend time exploring new places and hobbies, renovating, homesteading, and spending time with my family and friends.
My why
My passion and reason for doing what I do stems from my personal experience, and desire to lead a more fulfilling and nourishing life. Over the years I have been through 2 bouts of burnout (I did not quite learn my lesson the first time round!), and a difficult fertility journey. I recognise that we are all magnificant ‘work in progresses’, and I continue to focus on supporting my nervous system, nourishing my soul, and living an intentional life.
My personal experience helps to strengthen my practice, providing me with a unique perspective when working with my clients. I truly understand what it is like to struggle through trying times in life, but I know that there is hope on the other side, sometimes we just need a little help to get through.
