Services
Naturopathy
Our naturopathy service combines traditional healing practices with modern science to address chronic health issues. We use dietary advice, herbal medicine, and lifestyle modifications to treat conditions like hormonal imbalances, digestive disorders, and autoimmune challenges. With over 30 years of clinical experience, our practitioners create tailored programs that target root causes rather than symptoms, helping clients achieve sustainable wellness through natural means.
Genetic Profiling
Genetic profiling helps identify inherited predispositions affecting health outcomes. Using advanced DNA testing, we analyse gene variants that influence detoxification pathways, nutrient absorption, and disease susceptibility. This information enables precise supplementation strategies and lifestyle adjustments to optimise genetic expression. Our approach integrates epigenetic factors with traditional naturopathic treatments, providing clients with targeted interventions based on their unique biological blueprint.
Blood Profiling
Our comprehensive blood profiling service uses functional pathology to detect early warning signs of health issues. We analyse over 50 biomarkers including nutrient deficiencies, inflammation markers, and metabolic indicators. This detailed assessment helps identify underlying causes of fatigue, weight issues, and chronic pain. Results guide personalised treatment plans combining dietary interventions, targeted supplementation, and lifestyle modifications to restore optimal physiological function and prevent disease progression.
Mind-Body Therapy
Mind-Body Therapy (Psych-K) addresses emotional and energetic imbalances affecting physical health. This technique identifies subconscious beliefs contributing to stress, anxiety, and chronic conditions. Through energy psychology techniques, we help reprogram limiting thought patterns that impact wellbeing. Clients learn practical tools to manage emotional stress, improve relationships, and enhance personal growth while addressing physical symptoms connected to psychological factors.
Western Herbalism
Western herbalism utilises plant-based remedies to support the body's natural healing processes. Our practitioner selects specific herbs based on individual health profiles and laboratory findings. Treatments address digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and immune system weaknesses using high-quality botanical extracts. We combine traditional herbology with current scientific research to create customised formulas that work synergistically with other therapies, promoting holistic healing without adverse side effects.

I was at a very low ebb in my life! I was at a very low ebb in my life because I had just been diagnosed with Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and on top of my high blood pressure, cholesterol and extreme Restless legs syndrome (RLS) and depression, it seemed nothing could be done. A good nights sleep was nearly impossible because of my RLS.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a chronic inflammatory lung disease that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs and shortens life. My symptoms included breathing difficulty, cough, mucus (sputum) production and wheezing. I felt

From Hervey bay. We first came to the clinic back in September 2005 when Dr Wayne's clinic was here and we were both suffering from various health challenges. We both now do our consults these days over the phone which is a great comfort for us.
Shirley speaking, We found that whatever the problem was, Dr Wayne had a method to relieve it. Back in 2005 Ces was suffering from severe back pain and within 3 to 4 weeks of seeing Dr Wayne and becoming a part of the Rapid Pain Relief Program Cess back pain was 80% improved.

I have suffered from depression, anxiety for over 10 years, stomach issues like bloating, cramps, female issues, sinus issues, my body couldn't store iron, B12, and serotonin. I was so tired all the time, I would have to come home early from work so I could go to bed and sleep. And the list goes on. I was sick and tired of going to the Dr and even the hospital to just be given another anti-depressant and worse that there wasn't anything wrong. I reached braking point when I suffered yet another bad side effect from yet another anti-depressant that left me in bed with

I started going to Dr Wayne at unique health and wellness as two of my friends were going to him and they were getting great results.
Theres nothing better than getting a referral from good friends. My doctor suggested I was on the verge of kidney failure. I was tired muscle and joints were tender after I did anything and I didnt have motivation to do anything. Four months on and my bloods are all in the healthy range and I find I have a new zest for life. My enthusiasm has lifted

My husband and I have been treated by Wayne for the past two years. When we first started consulting with Wayne we were both receiving treatment from our GP for hypertension, which involved taking a daily medication. After following Wayne's advise and herbal therapy we now have normal blood pressure readings and are no longer taking prescription medication ( we do not take any GP prescribed medication). Our general health and well being has improved immensely, we highly recommend Unique Health and Wellness.
