Brianna James, naturopath and medical herbalist in Aldinga Beach

I'm Brianna, and welcome to The Wellness Recipe.

I'm a degree-qualified Naturopath and Medical Herbalist with a passion for helping women understand why they're experiencing symptoms - not just how to manage them.

Whether you're navigating hormone imbalances, gut issues, fatigue, skin concerns or preparing for pregnancy, my goal is to help you make sense of your health with clear, evidence-informed guidance and realistic, achievable treatment plans.

I believe you deserve to understand what's happening in your body. That's why every consultation is focused on education, empowering you to make informed decisions and supporting you with personalised nutrition, herbal medicine, lifestyle strategies and functional testing where appropriate.

I offer both in-person consultations in Adelaide and online appointments (everywhere excluding Canada and the US), making support accessible wherever you are.

BEYOND THE CLINIC

Outside the clinic you'll usually find me in the garden, on a beach walk, doing something artsy, or creating educational content online.

I love making complex health topics easier to understand, which is why I regularly share evidence-based health education through social media and digital resources.

My goal is to empower women with reliable information so they can feel confident making decisions about their health.

What My Clients Say

“I can't recommend Brianna highly enough! She has been supporting me over the past year, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the care I've received.

From the very first appointment, Brianna has been incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely invested in helping me improve my health. She takes the time to really listen, making me feel comfortable, heard, and never rushed. Her approach is so thorough, and she always explains everything clearly

One of the things I appreciate most is how supportive and flexible she is. She always provides different options, works with what suits you best, and is more than happy to adjust the plan as needed. It's clear that she truly cares about her clients and wants to find the best approach for each individual!

If you're looking for a naturopath who is knowledgeable, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to helping you achieve your health goals, I would recommend Brianna without hesitation. Thank you for all of your support over the past year!”

“Brianna has been amazing. One main point is she requested testing to be done which my midwife didn’t and the doctor and nurse at my GP refused to allow, so I went ahead and paid for these myself and it picked up a serious issue which my midwife only then took quick action.

The older I am getting I am quickly realising the most important thing is your health, and seeing Brianna gives me comfort that checks are being done and treatment plans made to look after me and my health rather than carrying on hoping for the best. Brianna is so much more personalised and thoughtful than any GP and has given me reassurance and comfort in detecting issues and addressing them, as well as guidance on my general health.”

“I’ve had such a positive experience with Bri. She’s helped me so much with my PCOS, especially with getting my cycle back to being regular, and she’s also helped me work through issues with my gut. She listens, takes the time to understand what’s going on, and always makes me feel really supported. I feel like we work together to figure out what’s best for me rather than being told what I have to do. I’m really grateful for all the help and progress I’ve made and would definitely recommend her.”
