Hi, I’m Ash
I’m Ash Yates, a degree qualified children’s health naturopath based in Adelaide and registered with the Australian Naturopathic Practitioners Association.
As a result of my own experiences as a mum, my clinical focus developed with a strong interest in the health of children (and the grownups that love them).
As parents, we’re all doing the best that we can with the knowledge and resources that we have available to us at the time.
There are many different ways to do the right thing, and there are many different ways to help. Using therapeutic grade nutrients and herbal extracts, we’re able to complement mainstream medicine – it doesn’t have to be one way or the other.
I am here to share my knowledge as a naturopath with evidence based herbal and nutritional medicine, so it can be used safely and effectively for children and families.

Looking at the whole child
Children’s health concerns don’t always occur in isolation. Digestion, nutrition, immune function, skin health, sleep and development can all interact, which is why we consider your child’s health history as a whole.
Gut health is often an important part of this picture. The digestive system and microbiome interact closely with immune function, nutrient absorption and other areas of the body, so digestive health may be explored where it’s relevant to your child’s presentation.
Care is individualised rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, with recommendations based on your child’s symptoms, health history, diet and individual needs.

How We Support Children’s Health
Parents don’t usually reach out for naturopathic care until all other options have been exhausted. At this point, there are often quite a few concerns relating to different areas of the body. In these situations we need to assess the body holistically – so we analyse how all these issues relate to one another and what the underlying cause is.
