CASSANDRA COOK NATUROPATH
EXPERIENCED NATUROPATH · EDUCATOR · GARDENER · COOK
Welcome
Cassandra is all about educating and empowering people to make better choices so they can enjoy greater health throughout their lives.
“What I love about being a naturopath is helping clients understand how good they can feel through natural health, be it changes in diet and lifestyle, environment, nutritional therapy, or balancing the body with herbs. At the same time, it is really valuable to know how to combine this with the benefits of western medicine; pathology interpretation and work in collaboration with other medical professionals to ensure the best outcome for my clients.” Cassandra, ND
Her unique, simple yet effective approach encourages others to adopt healthy lifestyle habits.
Eating well is a simple and powerful way to strengthen your body’s natural defences. A firm believer in the power of food as medicine, Cassandra shares the essential tools of cooking and growing food,
to encourage people to make appropriate dietary changes.
Here are some random titbits about Cassandra:
Cassandra once won a (wait for it) prize for best dressed at an eighties disco. She’s not really sure how that happened because in her words she was ‘seriously the world’s WORST 80s chic with big hair and blue eyeshadow’.
With a background in marketing and a degree in Naturopathy, Cassandra has worked for leading natural health companies in Australia developing products and education, which she is so grateful for…. but then decided she missed practicing WAY too much…. so now she helps clients overcome
their health challenges. What excites her more than anything is supporting clients to look and feel fabulous, and to achieve their best health dreams.
Though she loves all kinds of delicious food, Cassandra is just as happy to eat a bowls of hummus and snow peas for dinner. Quick and easy?! Score!
Nerd alert#*! Forever a student of life, Cassandra hones her focus and energy on new health research. She is like a sponge absorbing the latest information to provide her clients with scientific-based treatment plans to achieve consistent and effective results.
She believes it is important to care for this planet and she feels very ‘virtuous’ knowing that she has reduced her environmental impact with zero food miles, when she is able to pick a bowl of fresh salad directly from the garden.
Cassandra has been known to tell the occasional untruth to her fellow hikers, with encouraging shouts of ‘this is the last steep hill’, or ‘only a couple of Ks to go’. Cassandra and her partner Craig share a passion for the great outdoors and most weekends will be out exploring trails on the Sunshine Coast, clambering up rocky terrains, splashing through creeks and soaking up the delights of nature.
With a clinic based on the Sunshine Coast, Cassandra treats a wide variety of health conditions and works with people looking for a natural solution to their health challenges. She has over 25 years’ experience in natural medicine. As a Naturopath, Nutritionist and Medical Herbalist she has extensive experience in treating a wide variety of health problems.
