Naturopathy Services in Tauranga. Find the “Why” Behind Your Symptoms
Hi, I’m Vanessa King, the founder of Radiate Vitality. As a Registered Naturopath and Bowen Therapist based in Tauranga
​
My natural, holistic treatments are designed to help prevent health problems and empower you to manage long-term issues and improve your quality of life. I approach each client’s health concerns with an open mind in a stress-free, friendly environment
​
​Modern life takes a toll on the body. It’s fascinating how deeply our bodies respond to our surroundings, yet they’re often overwhelmed by the relentless stress of daily life. This strain has led to a rise in chronic health issues, calling for a fresh perspective on how we care for our health
​
The aim of a Naturopathic consultation is to addresses imbalance in the body naturally. An initial consultation involves discussing the reason your made an appointment and discussing your past and present health from a holistic viewpoint. My aim is to help you to improve your health and to feel better
​
I endeavour to develop a clear picture of who you are and why you are not feeling well. A Naturopathic consultation may help to restore health, vitality and a sense of improved health
Feel free to contact me first to see if I can help you​​
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a naturopathic consultation?
A naturopathic consultation focuses on understanding your current and past health, lifestyle, and overall wellbeing. Rather than focusing on symptoms alone, this approach considers the body as a whole. During the consultation, we will discuss areas of strength and imbalance, including nutrition and lifestyle factors that may be relevant to your concerns. I then offer personalised naturopathic suggestions to support your body’s natural processes and help you feel more informed about your health.
Why do people choose a naturopathic consultation?
People often seek a naturopathic consultation because they are looking for a more natural or holistic approach to their health. Many are interested in support that complements mainstream healthcare and provides more time to explore their wellbeing.
Who is a naturopathic consultation best suited for?
Naturopathic consultations are best suited for people who have had a general health check-up with their GP and are looking for a complementary, holistic perspective. This approach works well for those who are open to lifestyle and nutrition-focused support alongside conventional care.
Why are there two consultation time options?
A one-hour consultation is commonly chosen for first appointments, as it allows time for a more in-depth discussion of health history and current concerns. A 30-minute consultation is often suitable for follow-up appointments or for those seeking more focused guidance. Some people prefer shorter, more regular appointments, and this option can also be suitable for children.
How do you know your approach supports your clients?
Clients often share that they feel heard, relieved, and clearer about their health after a consultation. When explanations resonate and clients feel more confident moving forward, it indicates that the approach is supportive and aligned with their needs.
Do I need to book multiple appointments?
Many people find the initial consultation provides valuable clarity and insight. A follow-up appointment is often recommended to review how things are going and to ensure suggestions remain appropriate and manageable. Appointments are always guided by individual needs and preferences.
Do you work with all age groups?
Yes. Naturopathic consultations are available for people of all ages. The approach can be adapted to suit different stages of life and individual wellbeing goals.
How much does a naturopathic consultation cost?
A 60-minute consultation is $175, and a 30-minute consultation is $95. Any recommended products, such as herbs or supplements, are an additional cost and may be provided at the time or ordered if required. Optional personalised health plans are available for $45, and a brief summary email can be provided at no extra charge.
Do I need to complete the health questionnaire before my appointment?
Completing the online health questionnaire is optional but helpful. It allows time to review your overall health before your consultation. If completing the questionnaire feels overwhelming, you are welcome to provide a brief summary when booking or go through everything together during the appointment.
What should I bring to my consultation?
It is helpful to bring a list of any medications and supplements you are currently taking, along with any relevant blood test results if available. An open mind and willingness to have a good conversation are also important.
Are online consultations available?
Yes, consultations via Zoom are available. Completing the health questionnaire beforehand is recommended to make the most of the appointment time. If hands-on therapies may be suitable, referrals to practitioners in your local area can be discussed.
Why do you sometimes combine naturopathy with Bowen Therapy?
Face-to-face appointments allow for discussion around whether Bowen Therapy may be a suitable complementary option. Some clients choose to combine naturopathic consultations with gentle Bowen Therapy as part of a broader, individualised approach to wellbeing.
What is your professional background?
After many years working as a Pharmacy Technician in New Zealand and overseas, I developed a strong understanding of mainstream healthcare alongside a growing interest in holistic wellbeing. This experience led me to study naturopathy and offer a complementary, client-centred approach.
Are you registered with professional associations?
Yes. I am a Registered Naturopath with Naturopaths & Medical Herbalists New Zealand (NMHNZ) and a Registered Bowtech Bowen Therapist with Bowen Therapy New Zealand. *Disclaimer: Naturopathic consultations are complementary in nature and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent medical conditions. Individual experiences and outcomes vary. Please consult your GP or healthcare provider for medical concerns.
