The winter blues are well and truly here and so too are those niggling coughs, colds, and sniffles that come with the cooler months.

Hamilton-based Naturopathy clinic, Mullen Natural Health, is inviting you to experience their FREE 15-minute consultations at The Herb Bar – providing a remedy for those cold and flu symptoms, plus many other ailments.

The family-owned practice has been serving the Newcastle community for over 30 years and their team of Naturopaths can treat all conditions from colds and flu to complex chronic issues like thyroid, gut disorders, anxiety, kids’ health, women’s health, and everything in between.

We’re officially in the cooler months now – what do you see most of from your clients at this time?

“We’re seeing a big rise in the number of people who have had a cold or the flu and are struggling to get back to health – or continually picking up another bug from work, the kids or just being out and about!

“Most people are waiting a few weeks to get into their GP, which is no good if you’re unwell. That’s why we created The Herb Bar – a free same-day consultation with a qualified Naturopath so families can get back on with their lives! Plus, it’s available for everyone, new and current patients.

“Many people arrive at our clinic desperate for something to relieve their symptoms or to stop their family getting run down, and with hardly any wait time, it’s one of the first places families are going to get well, fast.

How can Mullen Natural Health best help me stop any upcoming colds and flu? 

“If you want to avoid getting sick this winter or need help recovering from a recent cold or flu and want to prevent it from happening again – we've got effective herbal and nutritional remedies that work!”

What can patients expect from the free 15-minute naturopath consultation?

“After booking your free appointment, you’ll speak with a qualified clinical Naturopath who’ll assess you and create a bespoke treatment plan you can start right away! We use practitioner-only products that’ll quickly relieve your symptoms and help prevent you from getting unwell again.

“Our practitioners focus on treating the whole patient and their families, we don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach, you can expect individualised care from our team. Just like any high-grade medications, you have to be assessed properly, before we can prescribe our products because they are exclusive to qualified practitioners only.

“If you’re wanting to get well and stay well and have thought about seeing a Naturopath, now’s the time! You can give us a call, speak with a professional, and receive a prescription on the spot.”

The close-knit Mullen Natural Health team is made up of qualified Clinical Naturopaths, Care Assistants, and office staff. If you’re looking to dive further into your own health concerns, read more about the team below.
