Naturopathy

Stimulating Self-Healing

Rebalance Your Energies

Naturopathy is a system of complementary medicine that uses a natural approach to health and wellness and works always with you as a person and not the disease. The aim of naturopathic therapy is to restore balance and aid the natural self healing abilities of the body. A wide range of tools are used to promote and maintain these mechanisms including good nutrition, physical therapy such as fascia release or reiki, lifestyle changes, stress management, naturopathic hydrotherapy and natural therapeutics (nutritional supplements, Bach flower remedies, tissue salts, homeopathic first aid). Depending on your health issues, we may also discuss functional testing such as stool tests or hormone tests.

How it works

Naturopathic treatments at Combe Grove are designed to support key physiological functions, such as digestion, detoxification, and circulation. Sessions are tailored to individual needs and may include:

  • Abdominal Massage. For those experiencing digestive discomfort such as constipation or bloating, this technique is aimed at promoting healthy gut motility. The Practitioner utilises a combination of massage, breathing techniques, fascia release, and Reiki to relieve tension and support digestive function.
  • Lymphatic Cleansing Massage and Castor Oil Pack. This treatment aims to enhance lymphatic circulation and liver function. The Practitioner performs specialised massage techniques to stimulate lymph flow, followed by the application of a castor oil pack to support detoxification.

Naturopathic Constitutional Hydrotherapy. This treatment uses alternating hot and cold applications to improve local circulation and immune function. Hot towels and cold linen are applied to the abdomen and lower back, encouraging circulation, oxygenation, and waste elimination. It is particularly beneficial for digestive issues, liver support, and lower back pain.

Client Testimonials

"I have seen Lucy 3 times in 3 months, and she's made a real difference to my health and understanding, and I feel so much better now. Lucy has been thorough, efficient, and we got through a lot each time we met. She was also great in our initial meeting in picking up on things I may need from other sources and encouraged me to explore other specialist services which have been great. I feel I really know what I'm doing to support my health long term and why it's needed."

"Having long standing problems with insomnia, irritable bowel, arthritis and generally getting passed my sell by date, I approached Naturopathy with a good deal of scepticism. Unbelievably, to me anyway, I now regularly sleep as a normal person does, have eradicated chronic bowel problems and feel so much better in so many ways that are too long to list. If you are thinking of who to choose or naturopathy in general, I couldn't recommend Lucy more. It probably sounds a bit gushing but she really has changed my life in terms of health and well being."
