Naturopathy & Hijama  /  Bankstown · Lakemba · Wentworthville

Your results came back normal. You still don’t feel like yourself.

Tiredness that sleep doesn’t fix. Digestion you plan your day around. Skin that flares for no reason anyone can name. It wears you down to be told nothing is wrong when you know your body has changed.

There is usually more to the story than one set of results. Finding it takes an unhurried hour and someone genuinely listening, which is exactly where we start.

In my own words: what naturopathic medicine actually is. Watch on YouTube
Hi, I’m Imaad

I came to naturopathy the long way round

It started in the family business, which specialises in K9 nutrition. Watching how much changed when what an animal ate changed was enough to make me leave a civil engineering degree and start a naturopathy one instead.

Some personal health challenges finished the job. I came out of them with real respect for how the body responds when it is given the right support, and for how long that honestly takes. So I look at what sits underneath the symptoms rather than only the symptoms themselves.

I consult at Masnad Health Clinic in Bankstown and Lakemba, and at Sydney Health and Sports Clinic in South Wentworthville. I work alongside your GP and specialists, never instead of them.

How it works

What working together actually looks like

No guesswork and no mystique. Here is the whole path, from the first phone call to a plan you can follow in an ordinary week.

  1. 1

    Your free roadmap call

    Free, no obligation

    A short call, at no cost, to talk through what is going on and map out what working together would look like. If I am not the right practitioner for it, I will say so and point you to someone who is. Book it online, or call or text 0434 095 779.

  2. 2

    The first consultation

    A full hour

    A detailed case history: your presenting symptoms, your medical and family history, digestion, sleep, stress and medications. Most people say it is the first time someone has heard the whole story start to finish. No two people arrive with the same picture, so the hour is spent on yours.

  3. 3

    Testing, only where it adds something

    If needed

    If a test would genuinely tell us something useful, I use accredited laboratories and explain what we are looking for and why. If it would not change anything, we skip it. Costs are given to you up front, and the plan is built around your budget either way.

  4. 4

    A plan written down

    Yours to keep

    Clear steps, in plain language, that fit an ordinary week. It may include herbal medicine, nutritional or homoeopathic compounding, and food and lifestyle adjustments. The aim is that you leave knowing exactly what to do next.

  5. 5

    Follow-up and honest timeframes

    45 or 30 min

    Change takes time, and I will be straight with you about how long and what it is likely to cost. Returns are where the plan gets reviewed and adjusted around what your life actually allowed.

Every step gets explained before it happens. No surprise costs, no pressure to buy anything, and you decide what you’re willing to change.

    “As a first-timer, he made me feel very comfortable and took the time to ask all the right questions. I’ve also booked a follow-up naturopathy session with him to get further support with a couple of my health concerns.”

Hijama

Wet cupping done professionally

Hijama is a traditional practice many families already know. In the room it is unhurried: we talk through your history and consent, I select points and explain why, and everything used is sterile and single-use. I talk you through aftercare before you leave.

  • Sterile, single-use cups and blades, every session.
  • Consent and screening before anything begins.
  • 30 to 40 minutes including aftercare advice, $95.

Questions people ask first

Answered plainly, so you know before you book.

  • What actually is naturopathy?

    It is a whole-person approach to health. Rather than treating a symptom on its own, I look at what is driving it, digestion, sleep, stress, nutrient status, hormones, and how those fit together for you. The tools are herbal medicine, nutritional and homoeopathic compounding, and food and lifestyle change. In Australia naturopathy is a complementary practice, so it works alongside your medical care, never in place of it.

  • How is a naturopath different from a nutritionist, a herbalist or a GP?

    A nutritionist works mainly through food and nutrients, and a herbalist mainly through plant medicine. A naturopath is trained across both, plus health history taking and pathology interpretation, so a plan can draw on whichever of those is right for you. A GP diagnoses and treats disease and prescribes medication, which I do not do. I sit next to that work, looking at the drivers underneath the symptoms.

  • Is naturopathy evidence-based?

    The parts I use are chosen because there is research behind them, and I will tell you plainly where the evidence is strong and where it is thin. I do not promise cures or particular results. If something is outside what naturopathy can help with, or you need a diagnosis, I will say so and refer you back to your GP.

  • Is there a free call before I book a consultation?

    Yes. The roadmap call is free and has no obligation attached, a short call to talk through what is going on and map out what working together would look like. If I am not the right practitioner for it, I will say so and point you to someone who is.

  • What happens in a first appointment?

    Mostly listening, the first consultation runs a full 60 minutes. I take a full health history, diet, sleep, stress, digestion, medications, family history, and look at any pathology results you bring. Then I explain what I am seeing and we map out a plan, which may include herbal medicine, nutritional or homoeopathic compounding, and food and lifestyle adjustments.

  • Is this a replacement for seeing my doctor?

    No. I work alongside your GP and specialists, not instead of them. Keep your medical appointments, keep taking prescribed medication, and tell your doctor about any herbs or supplements you take.
