Samantha Atherton Naturopathy
Feeling tired, overwhelmed, or out of balance? My down-to-earth, personalised naturopathic approach supports your hormones and stress levels, helping you reconnect with your body and restore lasting wellbeing.
Hi, I’m Sam.
My own experience with PCOS led me to embark on a career as a naturopath to help other women manage their symptoms. I understand what it’s like to feel overwhelmed by your symptoms and not feel heard.
Women’s health issues, from painful periods and PCOS to fertility struggles and hormonal imbalances, are common but not normal. If you want a personalised approach that addresses the root cause of your symptoms, you’ve come to the right place.
I use a patient-centred approach, combining evidence-based natural therapies with traditional knowledge to help women achieve lasting balance and improved vitality. Based in the Adelaide Hills region of South Australia, I offer flexible online telehealth consultations to support women throughout Australia.

A holistic approach to women’s health
I focus on treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
My approach applies naturopathic principles to identify the root causes of your health concerns, taking into account nutrition, lifestyle, stress, genetics, and environment. My goal is to empower you with the knowledge and tools to manage your reproductive health. You can expect:
Personalised Treatment Plans: Protocols tailored to your needs using diet, high-quality supplements, herbal medicine, and lifestyle adjustments.
A collaborative partnership: where your voice is heard and your health goals are prioritised.
How I can help
Alongside supporting specific health concerns, I believe everyone can benefit from building resilience and strengthening the foundations of their overall wellbeing.
PCOS
PCOS can affect your periods, hormones, skin, energy and fertility in different ways. Together, we can explore your individual symptoms and develop personalised strategies to support your hormonal and overall wellbeing.
Irregular and painful periods
Your period can offer valuable insight into your overall health. If you experience painful periods, irregular cycles or changes to your menstrual cycle, we can explore the factors contributing to your symptoms and support your hormonal health.
Perimenopause and Menopause
Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes to your periods, sleep, mood, energy and overall wellbeing. I can support you in better understanding these changes and navigating this stage of life with personalised care.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis can affect much more than your menstrual cycle. If painful periods, pelvic pain, fatigue or digestive symptoms are impacting your everyday life, we can take a personalised approach to supporting your health and wellbeing.
Fertility & Preconception care
Preparing for pregnancy is an important time to focus on your health and wellbeing. I offer personalised support with nutrition, lifestyle and reproductive health to help you feel informed and supported as you prepare for conception.
Thyroid health
If you’re experiencing low energy, a sluggish thyroid or concerns about your thyroid health, we can look at the wider picture of your wellbeing and explore personalised strategies to support your health, alongside appropriate medical care.
Stress and mental wellbeing
Stress and anxiety can affect many aspects of your physical health and overall wellbeing. Together, we can explore the connection between your mental and physical health while supporting your overall wellness and building resilience through life’s challenges.
