NutriWellness Clinic

NutriWellness Clinic is a dietetics practice in Bulimba, Brisbane, led by Karla Schain, an Accredited Practising Dietitian with a Master of Public Health. Her approach centres on sustainable changes and a healthier relationship with food and body, rather than focusing only on numbers on a scale. Consultations are available in English or Spanish, offering a practical option for people who would prefer to discuss their health and nutrition in either language.

The clinic supports several areas of nutrition and wellbeing. Its services include weight management, chronic conditions management and gut health support. The website specifically mentions guidance for diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol, as well as nutrition support for digestive concerns including irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Gut health consultations may address symptoms such as bloating, gas, abdominal pain and irregular bowel movements through dietary and lifestyle changes.

There is also a focus on women’s health, including nutrition during pregnancy, menopause and support for people managing PCOS or preparing for pregnancy. Eating disorder support is available for concerns including food addiction, anorexia, bulimia and binge eating, with an emphasis on creating a safe, compassionate space and building a more positive relationship with food. These services make the clinic suited to individuals looking for tailored nutrition guidance around a specific health concern or a broader wellbeing goal.

The consultation process begins with a 45-minute initial appointment covering medical history, current health, diet, activity, lifestyle, nutritional needs and personal goals. This is used to develop a tailored nutrition plan, with education, counselling and a follow-up plan included. A 30-minute review appointment is available to assess progress, discuss challenges, adjust the plan and set new goals. NutriWellness Clinic operates from Level 1, 200 Oxford Street, at Oxford Street Medical Centre in Bulimba. The website presents it as an individual, appointment-based service rather than a social venue, making it best suited to solo consultations and ongoing one-to-one support.
