THE TESSA SCOTT HOLISTIC NUTRITION AND WELLNESS APPROACH

A Unique Philosophy

I first became interested in nutrition and naturopathy when I had my own issues with severe gastric reflux and ongoing anxiety stemming from stress-related dysfunction. I also lost my mother to breast cancer in 2009 and this considerably changed my way of thinking about dis-ease and healing in the body. I started to research as much as I could about what causes the body to create dis-ease and what causes it to heal. This led me to complete my DipGrad in Human Nutrition at Otago University and become a qualified nutritionist. It also sparked a deeper interest in naturopathy and the body's ability to heal naturally. I am currently completing my Advanced Diploma in Naturopathy which will allow me to practise as a naturopath alongside my nutrition.

​

I am currently an Associate Registered Nutritionist with the Nutrition Society of New Zealand as well as a Registered Natural Medicine Practitioner through the Natural Health Practitioners of New Zealand.

My passion is to help people get back to feeling great and to address the root causes of illness and dis-ease, especially those who feel that conventional medicine may have failed them. Often by changing the way we live our lives we can find the answer - it's not always the easy option but it can make the greatest difference!
