Frequently Asked Questions:

What is Naturopathy and how can it help me?
Naturopathy is a medical science that approaches the body, its systems, and its diseases differently from modern medicine. As a result of different perspective and philosophy, natural medicine disciplines such as Naturopathy can offer more effective therapies for the body, mind and spirit of whole person, to help you overcome your difficulties.

Do natural, complementary, and alternative therapies have a place in modern healthcare?
It already has a place - many drugs and products prescribed by doctors, and a lot of their knowledge, is derived from natural therapies. Natural medicine practitioners can treat many conditions much more successfully, because of the different perspective - doctors ask for symptoms, but a naturopath asks why the symptoms are occurring and seeks to treat the cause.

Should I see a Naturopath instead of a Medical Doctor (General Practitioner)?
Your naturopath is not a "doctor-replacement", but more like a specialist, who is referred to in order to utilise their additional training in other areas of health care.

Helping Nature Heal is run by Ann Vlass, a qualified Naturopath who has been running her own successful Naturopathy practice for over 6 years. Specialising in Fertility and Weight Management, she completed her post graduate Advanced Certificate in Natural Fertility Management and Better Babies Preconception Health Care with Francesca Naish, founder of the Jocelyn Centre for Natural Fertility Management and Holistic Medicine in NZ. Ann also has a Science degree from The University of Melbourne (majored in Pharmacology and Biochemistry) and completed an Honours Thesis with Department of Medicine, and conducted her research at the Royal Melbourne Hospital with the Department of Colorectal Medicine and Genetics, where she analysed modulation of cancer-related genes in relation to specific dietary fibres known for their preventative effects against colorectal cancer. She is currently completing research in this field with the Department of Colorectal Medicine and Genetics at Royal Melbourne Hospital, will further this work as a PhD.

Her 15 years experience as a professional actor has led her to work extensively with the Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences (formally Department of General Practice and Public Health) at Melbourne University in programs which trains medical students, GPs, and midwives in communication skills.

In 2004, she completed her exciting Angel Intuitive certified training course with Doreen Virtue, PhD, in Sydney, Australia.

Her public speaking attributes include guest lecturing in Medical Anthropology at Melbourne University in 2001 on the topic of Natural Medicine. Ann also regularly writes in-depth articles for popular holistic and health magazines. The Victorian Herbalist Association (branch of NHAA) had invited Ann as a guest speaker in June 2006 to speak on Post-Graduate opportunites for Natural Medicine Practitioners. Ann will be presenting her current findings with her science research at the International Gastroenterology Week Congress in October 2006. Finally, LIfestyle1 magazine interviewed Ann in July 2006 and commended her skills and impressive diverse background.
