Heading back to work this week?

Long hours at your desk, poor posture, prolonged screen time, stress and even teeth grinding can all contribute to muscle tension, which could lead to headaches or migraines.

Common symptoms can include headaches, jaw pain, neck and shoulder discomfort or TMJ dysfunction.

Natural therapies such as myotherapy can help holistically manage symptoms and support overall wellbeing with the aim of reducing the likelihood of future migraine episodes.

Call us on (03) 9337 8572 or visit our website to learn more about how myotherapy could support you in managing headaches and migraines as you settle back into your daily routine: www.essendonnaturalhealth.com.au

Our practitioners take an integrated approach to encourage self-healing, incorporating Western medicine with traditional, holistic practices to support you on your fertility journey.

One of these practices that might be recommended is acupuncture as an adjunct treatment that could assist with the effectiveness of IVF treatment and help with various concerns in pregnancy.

Discover how IVF can support you on your pregnancy journey. Call us on (03) 9337 8572 or visit our website to book an initial consultation with one of our trained practitioners: www.essendonnaturalhealth.com.au

One of the most common questions we hear from patients is about folate: What type is best? How much should you take? And why is it important?

Folate is the natural form of vitamin B9, found in dark green leafy vegetables, legumes, and cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli.

Folate is essential for healthy cell growth and DNA production, supporting vitamin B12 activation, helping regulate homocysteine levels and supporting mood and joint health.

On the other hand, folic acid is the synthetic form of folate often found in supplements and fortified foods such as breakfast cereals.

Our most viewed blog explores the different forms of folate and how genetics could influence your individual needs. Visit our blog to learn more: https://essendonnaturalhealth.com.au/folate-folic-acid-folinic-acid-methylfolate-whats-the-difference/

As we begin a new year, it can be beneficial to check in on the small but sustainable choices we can all make to support our physical and emotional wellbeing for the year ahead.

It’s easy to get caught up in the busyness of life, work, and other commitments. Taking a moment to pause and set some intentions now can set you up to feel more balanced in the long term.

We’d love to know how you’re planning to nourish yourself in 2026.

Many moons ago in my final year of study I completed my clinical internship at Shanghai Shuguang Hospital in Puxi and Pudong districts. I recently went back to Shanghai for the first time in more than 17 years! It was great to see the city, to visit the old hospital I was based in and reacquaint myself with this exiting place once again. It is such a mixture of east and west architecture due to its colonial history, making it the most international and cosmopolitan city in China today. Enjoy the photos, disregard the hair 😂😂. Robert
