About Interlude Health
Interlude Health enjoys working with patients of all ages. From children to adults, we want to create a safe space for all to enjoy and work towards their treatment goals.
Feeling heard is a basic human need that far too many people go without. The team at Interlude Health aim to create a space where you feel seen, comfortable and looked after. Dr Cathy Doyle and Dr Michael Maroon have been practising in the Hills District for over 10 years and we pride ourselves on being part of the community.
Some of the conditions we see in practice include, adrenal fatigue, gut or hormonal imbalances, headaches, anxiety, infantile colic and fatigue. We also see children with behavioural or learning difficulties or patients who are just generally not feeling “well” but are unsure where to start to help their body repair and feel better.
This passion and vision has changed along the way. One of the most pivotal influences was after I became a mother. Like all new mum’s I knew that I wasn’t perfect, I felt like I was getting it “wrong” a lot of the time. This sparked a curiosity to create a space where mums felt at home, where they could be supported by one of their own.
This support could be through chiropractic adjustments, applied kinesiology, naturopathic guidance or Neuro-emotional Technique. A space where children could build upon their nervous system, to build resilience both emotionally and physically. A space that was inclusive to mums, dads, teenagers, workers, to anyone who was open to starting their own health journey.
