As your natural health therapist, I am in a great position to partner with you and create an achievable, science-based health plan. I have been involved in the music industry as a musician for over 30 years and my clinic has thriving client base of musicians and other allied music industry professionals .
You are in safe hands! I am a degree qualified Naturopath and Medical Herbalist, and also have a science degree with a major in microbiology. I am a professional member of the Naturopaths and Medical Herbalists of New Zealand association.
The herbs and therapies in your health plan, even the strategies we may use for goal setting, are all supported by scientific evidence.
Getting simple plans in place like eating well, sleeping well, and balancing work and play, can have a tremendous effect on mood and your ability to overcome challenges and thrive as a musician.
FREE COUNSELLING SERVICE FOR MUSICIANS
The 2016 New Zealand Music Foundation Community Wellbeing Survey was the largest per capita study of its type in the world. Four years before Covid 19 hit our shores, this survey revealed a local music community in dire need of help and support.
With solid evidence of mental health and substance use disorders at much higher rates than the general population, it lead to the creation of MusicHelps. They provide a 24/7 helpline providing a fully funded counselling service for musicians and others who work in the arts here in Aotearoa. MusicHelps free phone 0508MUSICHELPS
