Hi, I’m Marique!
I’m an Integrative Health Practitioner and Wellness Coach who specialises in helping busy women live life with increased energy, less stress and a healthy gut, by addressing the root cause of their symptoms.
My heartfelt mission is to inspire, educate and empower women to nourish & heal themselves, so they can tap into their true potential & live in harmony with their body, mind and Mother Nature. This is something so close to my heart, as I know what it’s like when your health holds you back.
I ‘burnt myself out’ and struggled with my health for years while working in advertising. It wasn’t fun. The weird thing was; I honestly thought I was pretty healthy. I was training 5x times a week, avoiding carbs and doing everything ‘right’ but I still felt like crap. My skin looked terrible, my hormones had gone haywire and I was battling with various gut issues. Until one day my body gave me some ‘wake up calls’ that finally made me see that something had to change… and so my journey began. Instead of thinking my body was betraying me I started to listen to what it was telling me. I took a gentle holistic approach to my health and began to explore the WHY behind my symptoms. It was only when I found and addressed the underlying root causes did I truly begin to heal.
Once I made the necessary tweaks to my lifestyle, the foods I ate and the way I was thinking (and healed my gut!) everything began to change. Using the foundational principles of natural health I was able to gently bring my body back into balance, essentially by giving it what it needs and removing what it doesn’t. Simple as that. Then it wasn’t long until I had got my energy back, my hormones were humming, the headaches were gone and I no longer felt nauseous all the time. . Plus the hay fever I suffered with since a child just disappeared! And even though life was still busy, the overwhelm was gone, I’d got back to a balanced healthy me.
Fast forward a few years and I feel better than I ever! My life is balanced. I feel nourished in both body and mind, and I have enough energy for my work, family and even a fun surf now and again! So, it’s my mission to help other driven women, like you, to feel the same. My healing journey has been an incredible gift that has taken me from feeling anxious and overwhelmed to giving me the most rewarding career as an Integrative Health Practitioner.

My goal is to show you how easy it is to have more energy, less stress and a healthy gut. To wake up feeling great, with an overall sense of joy and balance. The body has an innate wisdom to heal itself when we give it what it needs and remove what is doesn’t. I am here to show you how to nurture and look after your beautiful body, in a way that is best for you.

About my approach to health & wellbeing.
As an Integrative Health Practitioner I look for the underlying root cause/s of why someone isn't feeling their best, and then work with them to rebalance the body from a foundational level. All of us have an intuitive sense of what health is, but many of us have lost the road map to get there.
Your symptoms are the purely a wise response to something being out of balance. Instead of masking these symptoms with a quick fix I like to dive deeper with my clients to discover what’s really going on at a root causal level.
Health doesn't have to be complicated but what it comes down to is:
1. Giving your body what it needs - such as love, nourishment, safety, restorative sleep & replenishing any deficiencies.
2. Taking away what it doesn't - removing toxicities like parasites, gut overgrowths, candida, heavy metals & excessive stress.
PLUS mindset and emotional energy matter!
My approach combines 7 different integrative and natural disciplines including: Functional Medicine, Naturopathy, Ayurveda, Bioregulatory Medicine, TCM, Orthomolecular Medicine and Eastern Philosophies.
Since we are all different, my recommendations are always tailored to the individual. Together we work on; nutrition, movement, stress reduction, mindset, rest, emotional balance, as well as removing toxicities, and replacing deficiencies - to bring the body back into balance with ease.
My aim is to empower my clients with the practical tools to take charge of their own health, and get well by implementing small consistent steps that create lasting results. Never forgetting that the body has an amazing capacity to heal (and thrive!) when we give it what it needs and take away what it doesn’t.
Formally I have trained under Dr. Stephen Cabral, a board certified Naturopathic Doctor, Ayurvedic and Functional Medicine Practitioner who runs one of the largest international wellness practices in the world. Prior to that I completed a year with The Institute for Integrative Nutrition. I continue to study and learn more in all areas of natural and integrative health, with a strong interest in the mind body connection, nervous system regulation and functional lab testing.
