Chris began his formal career in health and natural medicine graduating from Melbourne University in 1978 with a Bachelor of Human Performance.
Over the ensuing years he continued to study graduating in all the major classical modalities in alternative, complimentary, traditional, natural and integrative medicine including German Electro-Medicine.
He began work in the health industry at the age of 16. After working in gyms for 2 years he then began to ‘unofficially’ treat people by listening to their complaints trying to figure out what they needed and what would fix them naturally and prescribing exercise and diet programs with basic supplements and performing his own form of bodywork therapy,… that’s how it all started. He saw his first patient at 18. He then went on to gain formal qualifications! He is now 62 and has continued faithful to the cause amid all sorts of ups and downs in the industry.
Chris has been involved in treating patients now for 44 years and has conducted more than 60,000 consultations treating cancer patients to top athletes, from babies to geriatrics. He is an accomplished public speaker and presenter and has a passion for electro-medicine, herbs, homeopathy and somatic education as they pertain to human performance.
He is married with three children and lives in Sunbury.

MEN
It’s Time To Boost Your Health, Get Fit and Stay Healthy For Life
Now, more than ever, men need to take their health really seriously. Men are often the focus of jokes that highlight a cavalier attitude towards well-being … How often do you hear this: “she’ll be right, mate!” “It’ll never happen to me” “I’ll get better on my own!” or the great classic – “I’m too tough to care”. We all want to laugh at fate, but it’s still good to be wise .
Just because you’re male you should never put off your health needs. And that means the treatment you need, or any tests, or the exercise you need, or any health or lifestyle change you should be implementing.
We cover all the basic needs of men including specialist solutions for the following:
Cardiovascular Health
Sexual Health
Prostate Care
Stress Management
Back Pain
Sports Injuries
Diet and Nutrition
Fitness and Fat loss
WOMEN
Enhance Your Feminine Powers
Over the years Chris Murphy has treated literally thousands of women with all manner of female type complaints. A lot of specific solutions have resulted and they can be provided to you for the myriad of dramas that disturb female health and happiness.
Right through a woman’s life whether it be infancy, childhood, adolescence through to motherhood, menopause and beyond and everywhere in between, Chris Murphy’s solutions are unique and tested protocols for the whole gamut of health events in a woman’s life.
Though every woman will often suffer from some kind of hormone issue, the rest of the time symptoms can be fairly general, meaning that they can also happen to men. (e.g. migraines, arthritis, indigestion, tiredness, constipation, eczema, hypertension, heart disease, diabetes etc etc.)
But for the inherently ‘female’ needs and causes of female ill-health, we provide solutions for the following:
Fertility Care – Couples that struggle to conceive can do a lot about it and success can be easier than you think. Prospective fathers can and should also be treated.
Pregnancy Care – This includes prenatal preparation and also during the pregnancy
Birthing Care – Includes post natal care for your newborn (we have many solutions for colic, coughs, indigestion, feeding, sleep and many others). Post natal care for mothers is equally important to restore strength etc.
Nursing and Lactation
Libido and Sexual Health
Hormone Regulation Program –The bane of every women at some stage of life are the effects of fluctuating hormones. (PMS etc)
Menopause Program
Emotional Health Program
Special Diseases Programs – (e.g. Endometriosis, PCOD, PID etc)
Hair, Skin and Nails Programs – Hormone deficiencies and imbalances can affect your skin (acne), the quality of your hair (it can even fall out), and the resilience of your nails.
Weight Control Program
Allergy, Sensitivity and Detox treatments for cosmetic chemicals. – Personal Care products, Hair products, Nail products and Skin products give you exposure to an incredible array of toxic products, that affect your hormones (xenoestrogens etc).
For those of you that are struggling with any chronic or debilitating condition, know that improvement can come from the intelligent and prudent use of natural medicine.
Ultimately all women of all ages want to look and feel their absolute best, maintaining beauty and youthfulness. But also experiencing health, energy, happiness and fulfilment.
