About Carrun

Carrun Squires

Nice to meet you!  My name is Carrun Squires and I’m a qualified Naturopath, Clinical Nutritionist and Diabetes Educator.  I help you find the underlying reasons behind your:

  • Weight gain

  • High blood pressure

  • Dysregulated cholesterol levels

  • Increasing waist measurement

  • Blood sugar imbalance

  • Insulin resistance

  • Fatigue 

Are you tired of being told everything is ‘normal’ when you KNOW something’s just not quite right?

With more than 13 years in clinical practice I’ve helped men and women of all ages reduce their susceptibility to type 2 diabetes, hypertension and other cardiometabolic issues.  That’s right … increasing weight, climbing blood sugar levels, high blood pressure and high cholesterol levels are NOT a normal part of healthy ageing.  Common, yes … healthy, no.

I love working in this area of health.

Being able to provide health care in remote villages of Fiji and Vanuatu is a dream come true.  Type 2 diabetes and hypertension is an increasing problem all around the world and especially in the South Pacific.  Leading volunteers here to conduct health checks and nutrition education is such a fulfilling part of my work.

I opened my own Clinic in 2007 and started seeing clients presenting with a wide range of health concerns – digestive issues, hormonal dysregulation, cardiovascular disease, depression, anxiety, sleep issues, weight and skin problems to complex multi-system disorders such as auto-immune disease can cancer.  Running your own Clinic takes a lot of time so in 2017 I decided to focus all of my time and energy on my clients … YOU.

 
 

Kind Words

"It's extraordinary that even with a rampant family history of high cholesterol levels that after following your advice they are now in the normal range for the first time ever!"
