Peter Farnsworth ND
Naturopath and Medical Herbalist.
A few words about me
I have 35 years of experience as a Herbal Medicine and Nutrition specialist.
I bring a combined approach to healing, using modern, evidence-based Herbal Medicine to create individualised treatment plans that restore your health and vitality.
I am registered with the Australian Traditional Medicine Society (ATMS registration 0025)
I hold several accredited qualifications:
- Nationally recognised Advanced Diplomas in Naturopathy, Herbal Medicine and Nutrition
- Nationally recognised Diplomas in Remedial Massage and Reflexology
What sets me apart is my extensive experience in practising Herbal Medicine and Nutrition, along with the incorporation of functional assessments such as medical pulse diagnosis. This will give you a real-time diagnosis of what is happening in your body and the therapy that will help. I see many clients who have consulted with doctors or other naturopaths and are seeking a second opinion. With Functional assessment, I can provide different insights into the nature of your health issue and help refine existing treatment plans.
I work with my wife, Patricia Farnsworth, a registered Craniosacral Therapist at the clinic.
My interests include Meditation, Yoga and Ayurvedic cooking.

First Consultation
When you book a consultation, a client intake form will be emailed to you to complete online and to return before the consultation. A list of medications and supplements you are taking needs to be detailed before the consultation.
What to bring to your first consultation :
1. Please briefly outline your medical history and the results/reports of any medical consultations, including photostated copies of blood tests. Blood tests, although helpful, are not crucial to the consultation, as functional testing is performed at the consultation, which will reveal your imbalances.
2. It is recommended to bring the supplements and medicines that you detailed in the return e-mail with you, to assess the brand and ingredients you have been taking.
After the initial consultation :
A free check-in consultation will be arranged to answer any questions, followed by a face-to-face consultation to check your pulse and progress. Any adjustment to the herbal prescription or lifestyle advice will be given at this time.
Herbal Dispensary :
The clinic has an off-site Herbal Dispensary that prepares all prescriptions within 48 hours. Herbal preparations are double-checked with consultation findings before being dispensed. Your customised herbal preparation will be left at Kokoro clinic for collection or sent to your nominated address via express post for a small postage fee.
Prescription Renewal:
A review consultation is required to renew the herbal medicine dispensed and to monitor progress. Clients are advised to book their review consultation well in advance to ensure their prescriptions are supplied before they run out. Continuity is important.
