About

Tessa

My driving passion behind being a naturopath comes from a deep interest in the human body, how it works and how we can look after it. I was raised on natural medicine and nutrition, and this grew into a passion when I combined this with an understanding of human biology.

What drew me to study functional medicine over traditional medicine was the respect I have always had for the body's ability to look after itself. I wanted to learn how to foster this to help people find lasting health, rather than use tools which take over the body's natural function.

I work with my clients to find what it is driving the imbalance in their health and identify sustainable solutions to promote their body's ability to heal itself.

Outside of work I love to spend time running, hiking, mountain biking and skiing. I love being in the mountains and escaping to the beach when I can.

Tessa is originally from Auckland, with a short stint in Wanaka for her last year of school before studying Naturopathy at South Pacific College in Auckland. She moved over to live in Europe for three and a half years before settling in Queenstown with her husband.
