There are lots of great handout and recipes to take home. Your tutor Olivia will provide you with lots of nutritional advice, the classes are casual and easy to follow with plenty of time for questions and answers. Our aim is to provide you with the scientific facts behind food, but in a way that allows you to easily apply them to your day to day food choices.
Your tutor will be Wellpark Graduate Olivia Kennedy. Olivia runs her own her own health clinic in Milford and has a passion for promoting good gut health and the many benefits of looking after your digestive system.
Great samples and recipes from Pacific Harvest.

The future for natural therapies is exciting. The use of natural medicines is growing annually as individuals take responsibility for their health and well-being.
