Question 1

Can a naturopath help with IBS and bloating?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A naturopath can help identify and address the root causes of IBS and bloating — such as dysbiosis, SIBO, food intolerances, impaired digestion, and nervous system dysregulation. At Tommi Rose Natural Health, Khianna uses gut-focused functional testing, dietary strategies, herbal medicine, and probiotics to support lasting relief from bloating, pain, and irregular bowel habits.

Question 2

What gut health conditions does a naturopath treat?

Accepted Answer

Naturopathy can support a wide range of gut health conditions including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), bloating and gas, constipation or diarrhoea, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), reflux and heartburn, leaky gut, food sensitivities, and inflammatory bowel conditions like Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis (in conjunction with your specialist).

Question 3

What is the gut-skin connection and why does it matter?

Accepted Answer

The gut and skin are closely connected — often called the gut-skin axis. Gut dysbiosis, poor digestion, and intestinal permeability (leaky gut) can drive systemic inflammation that shows up on the skin as acne, rosacea, eczema, or hormonal breakouts. Addressing gut health is often a key part of achieving clear skin, which is why Khianna takes a whole-body approach that addresses both simultaneously.

Question 4

What functional gut testing does Tommi Rose Natural Health use?

Accepted Answer

Khianna may recommend a range of functional tests to investigate gut health including comprehensive stool analysis (microbiome assessment), SIBO breath testing, food sensitivity panels, intestinal permeability markers, and organic acids testing. These provide a detailed picture of what's happening in your gut beyond standard GP tests.

Question 5

How long does it take to heal the gut with naturopathy?

Accepted Answer

Gut healing is a process, not an overnight fix. Most clients notice meaningful improvements in symptoms within 4–8 weeks of starting a targeted protocol. Deeper healing — particularly for conditions like SIBO, significant dysbiosis, or intestinal permeability — typically takes 3–6 months of consistent treatment. Khianna supports you every step of the way with regular check-ins.

Question 6

Are naturopathic gut health consultations available online?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All consultations at Tommi Rose Natural Health are conducted via telehealth, making naturopathic gut health support accessible to clients across Australia. Functional test kits are sent to your home, and all follow-up care is delivered online — so you can access comprehensive gut health support from anywhere in the country.
