She has specialised in Cancer support since 2003 and is the Consultant Naturopath for Cancer Care Centre in Adelaide, South Australia. Belle offers supportive care to cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy and other medical treatments for cancer.

Natural medicines have been shown to help prevent many side effects of cancer treatment including weight loss, nausea, diarrhea and neuropathy. Many natural medicines are gradually gaining support in the scientific literature and currently being trailed by the National Institutes of Health in the US for their efficacy in supporting cancer patients through treatment. There is good evidence for probiotics (for gut health), ginger (for nausea), B6 (for neuropathy) and lipoic acid (for neuropathy) to name but a few. And scientific evidence continues to mount supporting the immune boosting & anti-cancer properties of numerous herbs including a variety medicinal Chinese Mushrooms. Furthermore post treatment the inclusion of both Immune Boosting and Anti-Cancer herbs in a cancer support program may help prevent recurrence.
