Looking forward to today’s workshop with the leading minds in Integrative, Functional, Preventative and Geriatric Medicine. We aim to get South Africa on track with acknowledging that medicine is more than only treating DISEASE. We need PREVENTION, root cause approaches and patient centred care in order to lower the huge burden of chronic disease in SA. Medical aids can facilitate this process by giving codes that cover for these consults and procedures. Let’s promote WELLNESS!! As a patient, you can actively request that your medical aid starts opening to paying for longer consults with trained integrative doctors, and for the procedures we offer: vitamin drips, etc. Post here to show your support for our mission!

Every year it’s the same story: burn out, frazzled nervous system, people pleasing all the way to NYE just to set some lame intentions you have zero energy to implement. Start the new year feeling like you’ve missed the queue, by Feb you hate yourself because nothing has changed and you’re still overwhelmed, stuck in a rut and wishing the days away. This time of year is the BEST time to break the vicious cycle of exhaustion and depletion. Plan your weekends OFF to recalibrate your nervous system to deal with the additional stress caused by end of year madness. CHOOSE your battles wisely, don’t engage in every social invite- only the ones you feel will nourish you. DON’T cave under the shopping pressure and spend hours in the mall or online trying to please everyone’s material expectations. Rather spend quality time with family and friends - keep it simple this year (and maybe save a few thousand rands shifting the consumer culture of Xmas to what it’s meant to be
family time not Black Friday madness)!! Nourish your body during the extra long days. Why does LUNCH always get tossed out the moment we get busy? Who is more important than balancing your blood sugar, cortisol and keeping your nerves in tune? PUT YOURSELF FIRST. Earth your feet in the garden/beach/mountain/park for 10mins per day (even just sitting with your shoes off during your lunch break will ground you and recharge you). Oxygen mask and all that. This is your timely reminder. Break the pattern. You got this. Bring on 2026 with peace and ease, for a change. Toilet roll half FULL đŸ’ȘđŸ»â˜șïžđŸŒ± Let me know your end of year madness-busting hacks and win a free session in our new infrared SAUNA, another great way to de-stress.

Hormonal deficiency, i.e. peri-menopause/menopause can start 10 years before your period starts going irregular. The majority of patients that come to see me who complain of depression and anxiety (and insomnia) symptoms, recover rapidly once topping up their hormones naturally with bio-identical hormones. The other culprit is adrenal fatigue or dysregulation; as well as the “bad bugs” in the gut that are allowed to thrive during stressful periods. By testing and balancing the hormones, gut and adrenals, you can improve your mood, sleep and energy levels over a period of weeks to months. So many women are given anti-depressants and anxiety meds, sleeping pills, and NO ONE checks or even asks about hormones, stress, gut. What are we doing to our most precious resource? Women deserve better than this! Educate yourself on how medicine has evolved and stop handing over your power to doctors who have not studied the updated information. Book to see me to figure out if you really need those chemical meds: 0715361084

That after-work slump, the irritability, the second wind of anxiety
it’s not weakness or lack of willpower.

It’s your nervous system still running in high gear.

We spend most of our day in sympathetic dominance , alert, focused, “on.” That’s not a bad thing. But if we don’t intentionally shift gears, the body stays in that stress state all evening (and often into the night).

This affects your hormones, your digestion, your sleep, and your ability to actually relax.

This is where nature becomes medicine.
A short, gentle walk in the late afternoon or early evening can do more for your nervous system than most supplements.

Here’s why it works:

Light + movement signal to your brain that it’s safe to slow down

Barefoot grounding reduces inflammation and supports parasympathetic activity

Natural transitions (sunset, dusk) help your circadian rhythm reset

Breath + body movement bring you back into presence

If you can, walk near trees, water, or in a garden. Leave your phone behind. Let your body move from “doing” to “being.”

You don’t need to earn your rest.
But your nervous system might need help finding it.

What helps you change gears after a full day? Let’s share ideas below.

Hot flashes, brain fog, fatigue, mood swings

Hot flashes, brain fog, fatigue, mood swings

They’re common but that doesn’t mean they’re normal.

At Best of Both Wellness, we don’t see menopause as a problem to medicate.
We see it as a transition the body is trying to navigate and often, it needs support.

Before we look at hormone replacement, we ask:

How’s your adrenal and thyroid function?

Are your mineral levels depleted?

Is your nervous system stuck in overdrive?

Can your liver and gut actually detox?

Are your symptoms really about hormones or something deeper?

We do use bio-identical hormones but only when the rest of the system has been supported first.

✹ This phase of life deserves care that’s empowering, personalized, and holistic.

  • I am passionate about guiding my patients to make sustainable changes to their diet and lifestyle (sleep, stress-management and daily routine), tailored to their individual preferences and needs.

  • I always recommend (evidence-based) natural remedies and complementary therapies before prescribing pharmaceuticals or surgery

  • I am a trained and registered medical doctor, and employ a Functional Medicine approach, using the latest diagnostic tests and treatment protocols to treat and prevent chronic disease, combined with Integrative modalities such as CoMra low-energy laser therapy and intravenous vitamin infusions as indicated (for pain management, inflammation and stem cell regeneration).

  • I use medicines from tried and tested local and international compounding pharmacies, such as Natural Desiccated Thyroid, Bio-identical hormone replacement therapy, specialized intravenous vitamin infusions and specific nutrient replacements as needed.
