Supporting you through perimenopause and menopause. In clinic Rutherglen and Yarrawonga, plus online Australia-wide.

I'm Tania Lewis, naturopath and registered nurse. I work with you to understand what's actually happening through perimenopause and menopause, rather than treating symptoms one at a time. Fatigue, disrupted sleep, weight changes, digestive symptoms, and shifts in mood or cycle rarely have a single cause. My approach looks at the gut, inflammatory, and metabolic drivers underneath them, using a food-first framework alongside functional blood chemistry interpretation. An initial consultation is a full review of your history, not a fifteen-minute appointment. You'll receive a written plan you understand, including the reasoning behind each recommendation. I hold a Bachelor of Health Science in Naturopathy from Endeavour College of Natural Health and a Bachelor of Nursing from Charles Sturt University. I'm a member of the Australian Natural Therapists Association and hold current registration with AHPRA. Consulting in Rutherglen on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and at The Bridge of Health in Yarrawonga on Fridays. Telehealth is available Australia-wide. Book at https://simply-naturopathics.simplecliniconline.com/diary. Email [email protected]. I respond to messages between 9am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

It's 3am, and you're wide awake. Again.

It might not be a sleep problem though. It might be what you had at dinner.

One common pattern: blood glucose dips in the early hours. Your body responds by releasing stress hormones to bring it back up.

Those same hormones can switch your brain on.

So you’re lying there, alert, frustrated, maybe hungry, maybe replaying tomorrow’s to-do list in your head.

This is why 3am waking is worth looking beyond the bedroom.

Sometimes the clue is in your dinner, your day, or last night’s w**e.

Let's chat.

I regularly see people come in with a long list of foods they’ve been told to avoid. Some are down to a handful of safe meals.

It doesn't just get boring. Cut dairy and you lose an easy source of calcium. Cut grains and legumes and fibre drops, along with B vitamins. Do that across a dozen foods and the gaps add up.

Reacting to more and more foods often means something upstream needs attention. I’d rather look at why your gut is reacting than keep shortening the list.

A shrinking list of safe foods is a sign to stop cutting, not to cut more.

Your gut bacteria live on the fibre you eat, and different species feed on different fibres. Fewer foods mean fewer fibre types, and fewer of the bacteria that live on them. And in my experience, the bloating often stays.

So I look at how you’re digesting before I look at what to remove. Do you have enough stomach acid? Are you eating in a rush? Has a run of antibiotics been part of the story?

Fatigue is not always iron.

It's the first thing most people check, and fair enough. But when iron comes back fine and you're still flat, the questions keep going.

What about B12? Are you eating enough protein? Can you actually digest it? Do you have enough stomach acid to digest what you're eating?

And there's the other side. Iron is also inflammatory. Taking it because you're tired, without knowing your levels, isn't harmless. Too much has its own problems.

Two women can feel exactly the same and have completely different bloods.

If you're tired most days, not just some, it's worth looking at properly.

I don’t chase each symptom on its own. I work out which driver is running the show and start there.

Here’s what that looks like in practice.

Before we meet, I ask for any blood results you have. If you haven’t had tests in a while, that’s fine. I’ll tell you which ones are worth doing. Whatever you bring, I read against optimal ranges, not just the reference range.

In the room, we go through energy, digestion, sleep, stress, diet and your history. The things that seem unrelated usually aren’t.

You leave knowing why things have changed, and what to do first. Your written plan follows, with a clear idea of what we’re working on first and what we're leaving until later.

Rutherglen, Yarrawonga or online.

You've cut out gluten. Then dairy. Then half the vegetable drawer. And you're still bloated.

The food might not be the problem.

Your gut lining decides what gets into your body. It's one layer of cells, held together tightly. When it's under strain, more gets through than should, and your immune system reacts.

Food plays a part. So does stress that doesn't let up. So does alcohol. So does eating lunch on the run.

Eating stressed slows your stomach acid and digestive enzymes. Food reaches your bowel not properly broken down. It sits there and ferments. That's the gas.

A client came to me having cut out gluten, dairy and onion. Still bloated. My first question wasn't what else to cut. It was how she was sleeping, and whether she ever sat down to eat.

Cutting out more foods usually isn't the answer. Look after your gut lining first. Then see what you actually react to.

If this sounds like you, book an Initial Clinical Assessment.

We’ll spend money on an impulse buy without thinking too much about it.

But when it comes to spending money on our health, we can hesitate.

Honestly, I think that’s reasonable.

Health care costs money, and budgets are real. You should understand what you're paying for and what you're getting before you commit.

But sometimes “it’s too expensive” really means, “I’m not sure this is the right thing for me.”

And that’s exactly why I offer a free 10-minute Clarity Call.

You can tell me what’s going on, ask questions and get a clear idea of how I work and what I’d recommend as a starting point.

Then, if it feels like the right fit, we can book your Initial Clinical Assessment.

Sometimes the symptom you're feeling isn't where the problem started.

Symptoms are often a sign that something's been building for a while, often years before you noticed it.

I'm not looking at the symptom on its own. I'm asking what's actually driving it, through your history and, where it's useful, functional testing.

A client came to me exhausted but wired at the same time. That pattern often points to HPA axis dysfunction, not just stress.

That takes a bit more time than treating what's in front of me. But it changes what I can actually offer you.

If you've been treating the symptom without an answer, an Initial Clinical Assessment is where we'd start.
