Dr Paloma Velásquez. Reg Naturopath and Medical Herbalist (BNHM), Medical Doctor (Chile)
Paloma Velásquez was born in Chile and graduated as a Medical Doctor from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in 2009. After working in the Chilean health system, she felt called to explore additional ways to help people maintain optimal health and prevent disease.
In 2011, she moved to New Zealand/Aotearoa and went on to complete a Diploma of Aromatherapy (2014) and Bachelor of Naturopathy and Herbal Medicine (2018) at Wellpark College of Natural Therapies.
Paloma offers holistic and personalised consultations, drawing on both her medical background and natural health expertise. Her unique perspective allows her to combine the best of both worlds—modern medical understanding and evidence-based natural therapies.
Her practice focuses on improving overall wellbeing through herbal medicine, nutrition, lifestyle guidance, and nutraceutical support where appropriate.
At present, Paloma is working online only, while also caring for her young son.
