Healthy Children

Your child's health will be discussed and assessed and you will receive information on appropriate  dosage of natural remedies, as well as support with issues concerning taste and compliance as well as efficacy and safety information.

Preliminary tests that your child may undertake during 1st visit

• Urine Test (toxicity check & PH balance)
• Zinc taste test (immune function assessment
• Blood typing (to help us select the appropriate dietary requirements for your child)
• Glucose test (assessing sugar levels)
• Physical assessment 

(The above tests are inclusive of the cost of the initial consultation & only undertaken if relevant to your child's health concerns)

The special needs of children are recognised in all levels of social structure: children are not miniature adults.  Any potential benefits and risks of herbal therapy in children will differ from those in adults, therefore the principles that govern herbal & homeopathic practice should also differ.

With this important consideration in mind, the focus of the Betterhealth Naturopathic Clinic is to provide you and your children with professional evidence based advise and care.

We urge you not to pick up children's products from health food stores on the basis of television ads or suggestions from well meaning friends. Even when products work well on one child it does not mean the same can be said for another child with a similar complaint. 

At the BetterHealth Clinic located in Joondalup you will be assured of up-to-date, personalised herbal and homeopathic treatments for common infant and childhood conditions to include:
