Nutritional & Environmental Medicine

Queensland Integrative Medicine, formerly known as Nutritional and Environmental Medicine Queensland, is a healthcare clinic located in Teneriffe. The clinic takes an integrative approach to healthcare, combining conventional medicine with nutritional, environmental, lifestyle, and functional medicine. The team includes specialist general practitioners, a holistic dentist, and nutritionists. The fundamental philosophy is to identify and address the root causes of illness, rather than only treating the symptoms, aiming for measurable and sustainable improvements in health.

A patient-centred approach is utilised, recognising that each individual has unique biochemical and genetic needs. Personalised health plans are created, which may incorporate evidence-based lifestyle changes, functional medicine assessments, and conventional treatments. The clinic integrates traditional medical practices with advancements in fields like nutrigenomics and epigenetics, which examine how diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors influence gene expression and chronic disease.

The clinic provides a supportive environment for patients throughout their health journey. The team collaborates with patients to provide guidance and the necessary tools for long-term wellness. The healthcare professionals at the clinic have undertaken further training to specialise in nutritional and environmental medicine, expanding their skills to better address the underlying causes of illness.
