Q: Can I claim your services on medicare (Australia)
A: Yes, if you have a chronic condition such as endometriosis, PCOS, diabetes or coeliac disease you need to visit your GP and ask for a GP management plan or care plan which typically includes 5 sessions. You can use these sessions for my consults. The rebate is $60.35 for each session, meaning there will be a gap investment.
Q: Can I claim your services through my private health fund (Australia)?
A: If your private health fund includes dietetics then yes! The dollar amount that you get back will vary depending on your health fund. If you would like to check this with your health fund you can claim the number 301 for a telehealth consultation with a dietitian.
After having my son Ziggy I suffered from postpartum anxiety, brain fog, new eczema and extreme fatigue despite my healthy habits. This prompted me to seek help and at the same time I dug into the prenatal and postpartum research. This is when I found out that pregnancy nutrition is VERY specific as is post birth healing yet none of my providers had offered me this information. So I decided to undertake further training and become a prenatal dietitian where I now educate and support women through their prenatal and postpartum journeys.
I am fascinated that what a woman eats during pregnancy can shape her baby's DNA (epigenetics) and impact the child's health into ADULTHOOD!
There's no doubt that it's the most important time to focus on nutrition and yet, women are faced with so many barriers it's astonishing that all pregnant women don't get referred to a prenatal dietitian.
I'm on a mission to help as many mom-to-be's and mothers out there.
I know just how overwhelming pregnancy can be! So if you want to feel less overwhelmed and you're keen to shape your future child's health... then you are in the right place!
I can't wait to show you what dietary modifications we can make to help you feel better, reduce pregnancy complications and side effects AND optimally nourish bub to influence their health into adulthood!
