NEW ENGLAND NATUROPATHY

Where tradition meets science in natural medicine

At New England Naturopathy, we help people across the New England region — including Walcha and Armidale — restore balance and wellbeing through evidence-based natural medicine. We combine the time-honoured wisdom of traditional naturopathy with contemporary scientific research to deliver care that is both holistic and effective. Whether you’re seeking support for gut health, fatigue, mental wellbeing, or women’s health, we take the time to listen, understand, and create a treatment plan that fits you.

Natural medicine has evolved - and so have we.

Our approach is guided by a bio-psychosocial model of health, recognising that mind, body, and environment all play a role in wellbeing.

We merge:

Traditional knowledge of herbal, nutritional, and lifestyle medicine

Contemporary scientific evidence from clinical research and testing

Individualised care through comprehensive assessment and collaboration

Meet Liv

Olivia Nivison is a degree-qualified naturopath and founder of New England Naturopathy, based in Walcha and Armidale, NSW. Her work blends traditional naturopathic principles with contemporary scientific research, specialising in gut health, fatigue, women’s health, and mental wellbeing.

Olivia is also the owner of Grounded Walcha, a wholefoods and natural health store opening in February 2026, featuring a natural medicine dispensary, allied health clinic rooms, and a shared kitchen space designed to support collaboration among health and food professionals. Her philosophy is simple: combine nature, science, and community to help people achieve balanced, sustainable wellbeing.

Alongside her clinical practice, Olivia is part of the Yalgoo Genetics team, where she contributes to the evidence-based best practice in breeding stud cattle and fine-wool Merino sheep, with her husband Jock. This agricultural experience gives her a deep understanding of sustainability, systems, and resilience — values that inform her practical, evidence-based approach to natural health.
