Tell us about yourself! What’s your background? How did you become a naturopath?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I used to work in a field I enjoyed. I’d done a lot of studying to get there, but once I was in the job market it turned out that my daily life wasn’t really what I’d expected. In just a few years, my passion turned into a constraint. An opportunity then presented itself and I asked myself the question “what would I really like to do?”<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve loved nature and animals<\/a>. I love helping others. Naturopathy came naturally to me.<\/span>
I’d already been using essential oils for years, and phytotherapy in part as a “grandmother’s remedy”. Nutrition was also very important to me. I love to eat and cook, so it might as well be as healthy as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m also an athlete. Supporting people in all these aspects really seemed to me the best way to help them regain their health.<\/span>As naturopathy is not recognized in France, I did my training in Belgium, which I later supplemented with foot reflexology training and internships in France.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is your approach to naturopathy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

My approach is as natural as possible. Nature offers us everything we need. Plants, in the majority of cases, help our organism to regain its balance.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Chlorella<\/a>
Chlorella tablets – Echlorial\u00ae<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You are a consumer of eChlorial\u00ae organic chlorella<\/a> and you recommend it: what were your reasons for trying chlorella?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I discovered chlorella<\/a> during my naturopathic training. Having suffered from osteoarthritis following an accident, I wanted to try it and see for myself. Your method of cultivation in glass tubes<\/a> seemed the healthiest, so I gave it a go. I started with a 3-month course of treatment. On the whole I felt better, but at the end of the cure I wanted to wait a few weeks to see if I was still OK. The pain started to return. Today, I consume chlorella on a daily basis and I rarely have peaks of pain.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In what context do you recommend it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I recommend it mainly for people with chronic pain such asosteoarthritis<\/a>, or for digestive disorders. I’ve had a few cases of heavy metal<\/a> poisoning symptoms for which I’ve also recommended chlorella. It has also proved very effective for oral ailments such as mouth ulcers<\/a> and mycosis<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, it’s a great detoxifier<\/a> and regulator. So I recommend it regularly for its versatility and adaptability to all types of terrain.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What effects do I generally feel?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

People generally feel more energetic within a few weeks. They have better transit<\/a> and are less stressed. They often tell me they feel younger.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you have any other natural foods with “health” properties of choice?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I often recommend “superfoods” for a quick pick-me-up. All those little seeds and berries we don’t usually eat are real “bombs” of vitamins and other nutrients!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just to name a few: goji berries, chia seeds, sprouted seeds, turmeric…<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Luminotherapie\"

Do you have complementary expertise in alternative medicine?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I’m a foot reflexology practitioner and I’m also very interested in lithotherapy.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In your opinion, what are the basic rules for a healthy lifestyle?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For me, nutrition is essential. We eat 3-5 times a day, so it’s essential that our food is of good quality and adapted to our physiological needs.<\/span>A healthy lifestyle and a bit of physical activity, not to mention running a marathon, but a 30-minute walk every day in the fresh air is the minimum.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In today’s stressful, polluted world, it’s important to take care of yourself, both physically and mentally. I recommend eating better, taking a little time for yourself, relaxing and enjoying life.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
