Angelo Digiglio - Naturopath & Massage Therapist

What led you to Elevate?

I have always had an interest in what it takes to achieve optimal health and wellbeing, and wanted to better understand what creates balance and imbalance in the human body.

What do you appreciate about Elevate?

Elevate prefers to focus on wellness rather than ill health, so it is no surprise that we found one another!

What are your core beliefs about wellness and health?

I truly believe that it takes an integrated approach to achieve the greatest results with the human body and its complex systems. It is important to consider and address appropriately a person’s dietary factors, exercise regime, lifestyle, mental health and life satisfaction.

What mistakes do patients make?

Instead of taking one step at a time and being patient with themselves, clients often become overwhelmed by lifestyle changes that are required to improve their health. They need to be helped to understand and appreciate that making change is a process and involves taking on board certain healthy behaviours and thinking into a lifestyle often filled with ongoing stressors and pressures.

What key health lessons do you like to impart to patients?

Take the time and attention for yourself and you will always have enough energy and vitality in return for others.

What do you enjoy about your job?

I really enjoy making a difference to people on a daily basis and seeing the results first-hand. Helping people achieve their personal and professional goals is what makes my work worthwhile.

Tell us a little about your credentials?

I am a university-trained medical herbalist and naturopath who continually researches the latest clinical research and developments. I am also a trained deep muscle therapist and have expertise in herbal pharmacology and have been published in international journals. I provide nutritional advice and supplementation for mineral and vitamin deficiencies and typically achieve long-lasting results.

What are your extracurricular passions?

Taking care of me and my own wellbeing is extremely important; I believe it’s important to ‘practice what you preach’. I also enjoy a variety of sports like touch football, tennis, golf and long-distance running. However, I am most passionate about the people in my life including my family members, work colleagues, friends and clients.
