Practitioner Representative
Fiona Campbell
Fiona’s passion for health and healing began with her own health challenges as a child and the desire to find natural solutions to the various ailments that she was dealing with. Her journey to learn more led her to encounter the work of respected naturopath Barbara Wren and her College of Natural Nutrition, where she studied and learned about the art of Natural Nutrition. Fiona bases her approach to health on these teachings and the principle that to bring our bodies back to wellness we need to be patient and caring in what we ask it to do. It takes energy to heal – but if we can help the body to access this energy by choosing less challenging and more supportive foods, incorporating gentle yet powerful naturopathic techniques and addressing lifestyle choices, we can lead it back to a state of greater freedom and movement on every level.
