About Functional Care

Mind, Body & Energy Transformation

At Functional Care, we believe true wellness comes from addressing the whole person — mind, body, and energy — not just the symptoms. Our mission is simple: to help you break free from the patterns that hold you back and create a life that feels aligned, vibrant, and deeply fulfilling.

We offer a unique blend of PSYCH-K®, Theta Healing®, and Functional Nutrition, combining proven methods for subconscious transformation, energy clearing, and personalised nutritional support. Whether you want to shift old beliefs, heal on a deeper level, or restore balance in your health, we meet you exactly where you are and guide you toward where you want to be.

Our Approach to Holistic Wellness

We know that no two people are the same. That’s why every session and recommendation is tailored to your bio-individual needs, lifestyle, and goals. By looking at the root causes — from subconscious beliefs and emotional blocks to nutrient imbalances and lifestyle factors — we create a holistic, personalised pathway to lasting change.

We also believe in empowerment through understanding. Our clients don’t just receive solutions; they gain the knowledge, tools, and confidence to continue their growth well beyond our sessions.

Meet Your Practitioner

In 2019, my world changed overnight. First came a diagnosis of aggressive breast cancer — and soon after, Scleroderma, a rare autoimmune disease that can impact multiple organs and body systems.

For someone who had been the strong one, the dependable one, and a successful business owner since 2000, the sudden shift was shattering.

Piece by piece, illness stripped away parts of my life: surgeries that altered my body, the loss of my business, friendships fading, my fitness disappearing, and moments when my will to keep going felt fragile. My weight climbed to nearly 100kg. Muscle weakness meant that if I fell, I couldn’t get up without help. Walking brought such intense pain that I could only wear thongs or ugg boots.

Two pivotal discoveries turned everything around.
First — the profound, restorative power of nutrition.
Second — the life-changing effect of transforming deep, subconscious beliefs formed in early childhood that had been quietly undermining my health and happiness for decades.

Today, there is no trace of cancer. I’ve released 25kg, regained my strength, and I’m no longer limited by pain. My wardrobe even extends far beyond flip flops.

Now, I’m committed to sharing these transformative modalities with others — helping you tune in to what your body is truly asking for, and guiding you toward the health, freedom, and vitality you deserve.
