Naturopath in Crystal Waters, Queensland — Bruce Gibson ND
A Whole-Person
Approach to Health
Bruce Gibson, ND, brings 46 years of Natural Therapies experience as an Herbalist, Nutritionist, Kinesiologist, and founder of Wholistic Ecology™, a framework that considers the full context of a person's health, not just their symptoms. Living at Crystal Waters Permaculture EcoVillage, he has spent years deepening this paradigm through dedicated study and writing.
People come to Bruce when they are ready to understand their health more deeply and take a more active role in restoring vitality, resilience and wellbeing.
His consultations are calm, comprehensive and unhurried, creating the space to explore your health history, lifestyle, environment and the wider patterns influencing how you feel and function. Rather than focusing only on isolated symptoms, Bruce works with the whole person to identify practical opportunities for greater balance, coherence and regenerative capacity.

Common Questions
Do you offer online consultations?
Yes. Online and telehealth consultations are available for clients throughout Australia. When you enquire, mention that you would prefer an online appointment.
Who is naturopathic care suitable for?
People who want to understand their health more deeply and take an active role in restoring vitality — commonly for energy, digestion, sleep, stress and healthy ageing. It complements, and does not replace, medical care.
What happens at a first appointment?
A calm, unhurried consultation exploring your health history, lifestyle and environment, followed by practical steps to support balance and vitality. Bring a list of current medications, supplements and any recent pathology results.
How long is a consultation and what does it cost?
Initial consultations are comprehensive and unhurried, so they run longer than a standard appointment. Times and fees are confirmed when your appointment is arranged — simply send an enquiry to get started.
Do I need a referral or medical diagnosis?
No. You can enquire with symptoms, concerns or goals. Bruce will discuss whether naturopathic care is appropriate and may recommend seeing your GP or another health professional when needed.
Can I continue seeing my GP?
Yes. Naturopathic care can sit alongside your existing medical care, and Bruce values communication with your broader care team, with your consent.
Do you work with prescribed medications?
Yes. Bruce takes prescribed medications, over-the-counter medicines and supplements into account. Never stop or change a prescribed medication without speaking with the prescribing practitioner.
How many appointments will I need?
It varies. Some people begin with one consultation and review progress as needed; others benefit from several appointments for a longstanding concern. Bruce will discuss a sensible next step with you.
