Bodywise – Your Natural Health And Beauty Hub In Nelson
It’s often the way it works for complementary health practitioners, a challenging health situation creates a hunger to learn more and this builds a desire to help others navigate their health journey.
When you enter the shop you will be greeted with the smiling faces of Colleen and Julia. Colleen is the new owner of Bodywise and it’s easy to pick up the vibe these two are a great team. Both of them have had experience with a significant health challenge which couldn’t be treated using the mainstream system, so they studied with the best in New Zealand and hold NZQA-accredited degrees.
“The amount of knowledge and understanding required is massive. The way the body functions and how the body responds to healing requires a scientific and holistic approach. The clients share their situation with us, and we trade questions and provide a plan forward. We have a significant hub of brilliant health specialists in the Nelson/Tasman region who we know and respect, and we confidently refer people to the best person for the task at hand and enjoy hearing the good news of health transformation.” says Colleen.
This time of the year the cold weather brings with it colds and sniffles. They have a huge range of tried and tested natural remedies. Even if you have a mixture of symptoms the team can make up a customised remedy for you. Be it sore joints, difficulty in sleeping or allergic reactions or all of the above, there is something available that will help your body heal.
“There’s a lot of people living under stress. This can eventually start to cause problems such as sleep issues and anxiety that can become chronic. Supporting your body in times of stress is something that’s been done successfully for hundreds of years. There’s a well-developed and widely tested treatment pathway that we can help guide our customers towards.” says Julia.
Local health-conscious individuals have a good knowledge of complementary treatment options. The industry has come a long way in the past 10 years. There’s new data that proves the effectiveness of natural medicine. Bodywise will always refer someone to a regular doctor if they see any red flags.
For those who have seen the popular Netflix series titled ‘Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones’ Did you know that Nelson is a Blue Zone? This means that we have the right environment for a long and active life. It’s more than just enjoying amazing sunshine hours, it’s culture, quality food sources and a local healthy lifestyle combined.
While the shop has a new owner the plan to maintain consistency and build on the solid reputation that reaches beyond the region and has been building over the decades. Colleen was the onsite Naturopath here for three years before she and her husband Ryan bought the business off Sally.
“Something we are developing is a functional testing service. Having access to modern scientific data we will be expanding in measuring systems like gut health, mineral absorption analysis and more. Many of the world-renowned labs are offshore and we will be offering this as a service in the future. Measuring data can help us track progress and effectively understand what’s going on. This is particularly helpful for chronic conditions that have been disrupting health over a long period.” says Colleen.
Bodywise stocks a wide range of local products both online and in-store. Ranging from locally grown herbal teas to quality beauty products.
Being health conscious is a lifestyle. It’s a way of living that Colleen and Julia strongly believe in.
They enjoy working together and have lots of inspirational stories to share.
