Little Biome Approach

​​

I specialise in paediatric care, helping families understand how imbalances in this ecosystem contribute to allergies, skin conditions, digestive issues, immune dysregulation and neurodevelopmental presentations in children. The early years of life are a critical window for microbiome development, shaping immune and metabolic health well beyond childhood. Supporting this process early can have a lasting impact on a child's wellbeing.

​

My approach is grounded in a growing body of research into the microbiome's central role in human health and disease. I focus on identifying and addressing the underlying causes of a child's health concerns, using functional testing to fast track that process rather than relying on trial and error. It's an approach built on understanding why a child is unwell, not simply managing symptoms.

​

Beyond paediatrics, I also support adults with complex gastrointestinal disorders, autoimmune conditions, and vaginal and oral microbiome imbalances, for those wanting a more holistic understanding of what's driving their symptoms.

About Jessica Kramer 

​​​

Through years of clinical experience and advanced training in gut and

vaginalmicrobiome health, she has come to see how addressing the microbiome

alongside nutrition and herbal medicine often unlocks what other approaches miss.

​

Jessica's main focus is children's health, particularly where symptoms are complex, longstanding or haven't responded to previous treatment. She also supports mothers through pregnancy and postpartum, adults with complex gut conditions, and women with vaginal microbiome imbalances.

​

Jessica organises relevant functional testing to build a clearer clinical picture. This might include gut, vaginal or oral microbiome analysis, genetic testing (nutrigenomics) and general pathology, depending on each person's needs. Results help uncover the root causes of symptoms and guide a clear, targeted treatment plan aimed at lasting change.

Jessica is a naturopath with dual degrees in Clinical Nutrition and Western Herbal Medicine, and a deep fascination with the little things that profoundly shape our lives: microbes. What started as a focus on supporting mothers and children has grown into the recognition that the gut ecosystem sits at the heart of so many conditions. As research continues to develop, so does her interest in how the microbiome connects to digestive health, immunity, neurodevelopment, skin, and reproductive and metabolic function.

I acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation as the traditional owners and custodians of the land on which I live, work and play, and recognise their continuing connection to the land, sea and community. I acknowledge that this land was stolen, and that sovereignty has never been ceded.

This is an inclusive practice that values & respects diversity
