Meet Philippa Youngs

Why do I do what I do?

Well, I can’t not. I can clearly remember when the bug bit me. I was in an obstetrics and gynecology lecture towards the end of my second degree at University. When the professor spoke about how a woman’s body works and what must happen for a pregnancy to occur I was mesmerized. It sounded like such a miraculous process. I knew in my bones that this was what I would do. Women’s wellness, wellbeing, fertility, and pregnancy have been my focus ever since. It is the only work I want to do.

I love working with women.

To provide a secure, grounded, loving space to come for acupuncture and health guidance. To be heard, to feel safe. I want them to know that they have someone to support them as they grow, develop and make the changes in their lives that enable them to achieve what they want.

With this focus in mind,

I have gathered the expertise, experience, and education to create a clinic that provides a balanced and precise scope to help families achieve their goals.  I have a Bachelor Degree in Health Science and Acupuncture from Victoria University, A Bachelor in Chinese Herbal Medicine from Victoria University and an Associate Diploma of Applied Science, Myotherapy from RMIT, Melbourne Victoria. These formal qualifications combined with over 15 years of experience means you are in good hands.

Pregnancy is not a one size fits all model, and therefore we understand each body needs to be cared for and balanced with precision and dedication for an optimal outcome. The Good Egg clinic provides therapies for a broad scope of conditions and welcomes you.

Meet Andisha Butterfield

For over two decades I thrived as an Intensive Care Nurse, working in hospitals in Queensland, United Kingdom & Victoria. However, trying to start a family & motherhood shifted my focus & my health & vitality took a hit. This led me to re-evaluate my health & wellness journey, uncovering a need for change.

The allopathic nature of care, I began to observe, was predominantly reactive & the time constraints & reduced ability to be an advocate for the patients & their families, meant I was unable to provide the level of support & education I believe they deserved.

Recognising the gap in care, I set out to be an advocate that is centred on imparting experiential knowledge which is backed by scientific data & wisdom. I realised that authentic support begins with self nourishment. This shift transformed my personal &
professional life, bringing authenticity & vitality.

Exploring holistic health, I have invested three years in rigorous & diverse functional nutritional training, functional laboratory training, spiritual healing & more. This journey emphasised the significance of bio-individuality & self care.

Now I support health minded, corporate professionals who are seeking solutions outside conventional medicine conceive naturally, allowing them to focus on enjoying their pregnancy journey.

We achieve this by focusing on 3 main transformational techniques;

1. Figuring out what foods are nourishing for your body, so it can function at its potential, allowing you to conceive with greater ease.
2. Find the missing pieces of your health puzzle using functional lab testing to prepare & strengthen your body for a healthy pregnancy,
3. Provide you with easy tips & tricks focusing on self care, so that you are consistently on the track with providing your body what it needs at any time, to feel your best.

Nutrition for Nourishment is a practice that coaches clients in search of healing through fostering a healthy relationship with food, body & self. I believe in individuality & nurturing ourselves for a fulfilling life. Through our journey together, clients discover vitality & wellbeing, thriving in all aspects of the journey to becoming parents.

Lets embark on an authentic wellness path, where self nourishment fuels our ability to enjoy a healthy pregnancy together with extending our healthspan.
