Laura Wheeler Naturopathy

27/08/2026

Naturopathy has been part of my life since I was a child. I had severe allergies, asthma and eczema from a young age, and my mum used to take me to a naturopath to try to get to the bottom of my skin issues.

When I reached my early 20s, my health became a lot more complex. I went through severe Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW), alongside SIBO, endometriosis, chronic fatigue, MCAS and ongoing gut and immune issues.

I know what it’s like to see multiple practitioners and spend thousands of dollars on supplements and testing.

I understand the feeling of being completely lost and overwhelmed by constant, never ending health issues and being completely disregarded by mainstream medicine.

To miss out on events, family gatherings, catch ups with friends, work and study due to health issues.

I know what it’s like to spend countless hours reading, researching and trying to understand why my body isn’t functioning the way it should be.

It just made me more determined to find the answers, and take my health into my own hands. To help others travelling the same path.

I strive to help my patients find their underlying root cause, to support optimal health and quality of life ✨

Your gut health could be affecting your mood 🧠🌿

The gut and brain are constantly communicating through the gut–brain axis - which means changes in your gut can influence how you feel mentally and emotionally.

Some of the ways gut dysfunction may impact mood include:

• Neurotransmitter production — gut microbes influence pathways involved in serotonin, GABA and dopamine signalling.

• Chronic inflammation — increased intestinal permeability and microbial imbalance can promote systemic inflammation, which may influence brain function and mood.

• Nutrient absorption — poor digestion can affect nutrients needed for healthy neurotransmitter production, including B vitamins, iron, zinc and magnesium.

• Microbiome imbalance — changes in beneficial bacteria and microbial metabolites can alter communication between the gut and brain.

• Stress response — the gut microbiome interacts with the HPA axis, which helps regulate cortisol and our response to stress.

• Vagus nerve signalling — one of the major communication pathways connecting the gut and brain. Chronic stress can reduce vagus nerve function, slowing motility and digestion.

This is why when I’m working with symptoms such as low mood, anxiety, brain fog, poor concentration or fatigue, I’ll often consider what’s happening in the gut too.

Your mental health is complex, and gut health is only one piece of the puzzle — but it can be an important one. 🧠🤍

How can I help you as a Naturopath? 🌿

I take a root-cause, whole-body approach to help you understand why you’re experiencing symptoms — not just manage them.

Some of the areas I commonly support include:

• Skin health — eczema, TSW, acne, psoriasis & chronic skin conditions

• Gut health — bloating, IBS, SIBO, reflux & microbiome imbalances

• Hormonal health — PCOS, endometriosis, irregular cycles, PMS & perimenopause

• Chronic illness — fatigue, complex inflammatory conditions & immune dysregulation

• Mould & biotoxin illness

• MCAS & histamine intolerance

• Stress & nervous system support

• Functional testing — gut, hormones, nutrients, organic acids, mould & more

Treatment is individualised and may incorporate herbal medicine, nutritional supplementation, dietary support, lifestyle strategies and functional testing where appropriate.

The goal? To connect the dots, identify contributing factors and create a treatment plan that actually makes sense for you.

Eczema and TSW: healing is rarely just about the skin 🌿

These before & after photos show what can happen when we look beyond the surface and address the factors that may be contributing to ongoing inflammation.

With eczema and Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW), my approach includes a combination of:

• Supporting immune regulation & inflammation

• Identifying and addressing gut dysfunction

• Investigating mould/biotoxin exposure where relevant

• Supporting histamine & mast cell regulation

• Identifying and managing bacterial, fungal or other infections

• Correcting nutrient deficiencies

• Supporting skin barrier repair

• Improving circulation, lymphatic flow & detoxification pathways

• Supporting the nervous system, sleep & stress response

• Using individualised herbal and nutritional medicine

There is rarely one single “root cause” of chronic skin conditions. The aim is to understand the individual drivers keeping the skin and immune system reactive and address them step by step.
