Diana Hardwick-Smith is the Director of Waimarino Natural Health, she combines more than 30 years of expertise in holistic and conventional medicine, focusing on women's health.

From Lived Experience to Professional Practice

Growing up in the 1960s, Diana struggled with chronic eczema and bronchial asthma. A pivotal moment came at age 12 when she discovered a book by Dr. Bernard Jensen that linked dairy to eczema. Choosing to remove dairy from her diet had a dramatic improvement in her health and sparked a lifelong interest in natural medicine.

Diana went on to pursue a career in nursing and midwifery, later completing her Diploma in Naturopathy and Medical Herbalism in 1993. In 2001, she also became qualified in Natural Fertility and Preconception Care.

While raising her two children, she established a home-based naturopathic practice in Auckland. Over the years, she worked across multiple integrative clinics, including 18 months in natural hormone therapy and 12 years as an Intravenous Vitamin C Nurse. 

A Personalised Health Breakthrough

After 25 years in practice, Diana discovered ph360 and became a Certified Personalised Health Coach. This tool gave her a new way to integrate her clinical expertise and experience in functional health with insights from genetics and epigenetics.
