Jennifer's extensive career in acute care, medical, surgical and paediatrics units as well as maternity, psychiatric and outpatients clinics have proven useful assessment tools, and she still retains Queensland State Enrolment (endorsed for medications) with the Queensland Nursing Council. Raising four healthy children enables Jennifer to relate to family health issues and she provides practical advice as well as healthy lifestyle options. Having spent a great deal of her youth on a farming property, Jennifer is well versed in agriculture and the type of chemicals and fertilisers affecting environmental health.
Jennifer emphasises the reality that although alternative methods of treating illnesses are often of great assistance in regulating the body to restore good health, natural medicine is not able to cure all disease states, and that people need to be educated on the philosophy of naturecure. TCM philosophy of disease estimates a time frame of one month for every year of chronic illness using intense alternate therapies. Therefore an estimated recovery time for relief from 25 years of symptoms would be at least 25 months using appropriate natural therapies to become symptom free.
