Inner Bloom Naturopathics

Naturopathy is a holistic approach to health that blends traditional healing with modern science. It focuses on treating the root cause of illness, not just the symptoms, using natural therapies like nutrition & diet, herbal medicine & nutritional supplementation, and lifestyle changes.

At Inner Bloom Naturopathics, I create a warm and safe environment for you to have an open and in-depth conversation about your health concerns. My approach is holistic, delving deep into your unique health history, starting from birth right through to now. I'll consider a range of factors such as lifestyle, and genetic pre-dispositions, plus scientific analysis including blood and/or functional testing.

By delving into the underlying imbalances contributing to your health conditions, I support you to achieve long-term vitality and resilience. Through evidence-based natural therapies, lifestyle modifications, and preventive strategies, we can restore balance to your body, mind, and spirit, helping you to thrive.

I am here to educate, encourage, and empower you
to take control of your health journey, through long-term sustainable changes.

What is Naturopathy?

About me...

Hello and welcome,

My name is Sadiar - pronounced sar-dee-ya :) As a proud born and raised Torres Strait Islander woman, growing up on a very remote little island off the tip of northern Australia, with minimal access to alternative healthcare and food security, I wasn't always familiar with what integrative health care was. However I had always been intrigued by the concept of nutritional and herbal medicine, and holistic wellness.

My health journey began in my early teenage years when I started to experience debilitating and painful menstrual cycles, chronic anxiety, depression and fatigue. I lived with no awareness or understanding of what was actually happening in my body and this affected so many aspects of my life for an extremely long time. Years later, (not until my mid-20's) I was diagnosed with a condition known as Pre-Menstrual Dysphoria Disorder (PMDD).

It was during this time I discovered Naturopathy. After being prescribed endless types of anti-depressants and oral contraceptive pills, I decided to take an alternative approach to healing my condition, utilising a variety of herbal medicines, nutritional supplements, dietary and lifestyle changes.

After experiencing major health improvements, my passion and intrigue for Naturopathy evolved into a career, and I embarked on 6-years of rigorous academic studies and clinical training in Sydney and the Gold Coast to become a degree qualified Clinical Naturopath and am officially registered with the Australian Naturopathic Practitioner Association (ANPA).

I am truly thankful that I can now help others with their holistic health journeys. I love connecting with people from all walks of life, helping them uncover the root causes of their health imbalances, and witnessing them bloom from the inside out.

Yours in health & healing,

Custom Herbals

Cost: $140 + $10 postage Australia-wide
Suited for: Anyone wanting natural health support.

This is a brief 20-minute session designed to introduce you to naturopathic healthcare and explore how my approach may support your personal health journey and goals. It will help you determine if my services align with your health goals before committing to my Comprehensive Wellness Package which is a deep-dive into the root causes of your health concerns.

In this session we will briefly assess your current symptoms, and you'll be prescribed a five-week supply (500mL) of practitioner-grade herbal medicine for some symptomatic relief (eg to increase your energy, help you sleep, regulate your moods, etc). I will custom-mix these herbs to suit your specific needs from my in-house dispensary, much like a compound pharmacist, but using natural alternatives.

Please note: these liquid herbs are only legally available through Naturopathic prescription, as they have a much higher therapeutic effect than anything available over the counter.

This session is ideal for maintaining the momentum of your treatment plan, ensuring that you stay aligned with your health goals, and addressing any new or persistent symptoms.

Once you have completed a consultation, your personalised treatment plan is developed.

This is based off your current conditions, symptoms, pathology and/or functional testing results. The plan may include some or all of the following naturopathic treatment modalities: customised liquid herbal medicine, compounded or clinic-grade nutritional supplementation, nutritional education, dietary and lifestyle recommendations.

> Personalised Care and Treatment Plans

> Analysing your Pathology

Unlike conventional medicine, I take a comprehensive view of blood test results, delving beyond traditional reference ranges to uncover subtle imbalances and potential health concerns. Rather than simply treating symptoms, I interpret blood tests through the lens of individualised health optimisation, considering factors such as nutritional status, hormone balance, inflammation levels, and metabolic function.

> Functional Testing

Functional testing is a vital component of my naturopathic approach, offering comprehensive insights into your body's underlying imbalances and dysfunctions. Unlike standard tests at a GP, which primarily diagnose specific diseases, functional testing delves much deeper to uncover the root causes of your health issues. These tests are conducted by third-party laboratories, but it is my role to interpret the results. The types of functional testing available include:

How I Practise

...and my Point of Difference

> In-house Liquid Herbal Dispensary

As a practitioner with my own fully-stocked in-house liquid herbal dispensary, I am able to prescribe a wide-range of liquid herbs to my patients. This means if you have your consult with me in the morning, I can prepare your prescription, mix it myself, and express post it to you that afternoon so it's (hopefully) on your doorstep the very next day! Or you can even pick it up from Broadbeach, Gold Coast.

> Cultural Awareness

As a Torres Strait Islander, I bring to my Naturopathic practice a great respect and awareness for people from all ethnic backgrounds and walks of life. For those living in remote and regional communities - I can help you too! With online capabilities and express postage Australia-wide, there is no limit to what we can achieve together.

Patient Testimonials

"I recently had a consultation with Sadiar at Inner Bloom Naturopathics, and I am beyond impressed with their humble and down-to-earth approach. The supportive team assisted me with my longstanding sleep issues, which have plagued me for over 10 years. Thanks to their expertise and care, I can now thankfully confirm that I am getting a full 8 hours of sleep each night. Their dedication and personalised treatment have made a world of difference in my life. Highly recommended!" - Sarah D.

"Amazing service. My daughter plays a lot of sports and for so long she has suffered calf cramping. We would have to ensure that she had deep heat rubbed into her legs before every game. Her energy levels were also all over the place from her training schedule. Since we've spoken to Sadiar and had some supplements sent to us for her, she has had no cramping energy levels are 100% better and her performance on the field has also shown 100% improvement.

I also had issues with sleep insomnia due to stress. By managing my energy levels throughout the day and taking a spoonful of liquid herbs at night, I have never felt more relaxed. Cannot thank Sadiar enough for all of her help." - Lyn C.
