Jess Coleman is the creator of Fruition Mind Body Health, and has been practising homeopathy since graduating the Bay of Plenty College of Homeopathy in 2012 (now known as the College of Natural Health and Homeopathy). She is also a qualified CEASE Therapist and QRA Therapist.

Straight from graduating, she began working at the Healing Haven Homeopathic Dispensary in Auckland. In 2015, she moved with her family to Whangarei and opened The Healing Haven Northland.

Now, she works as a homeopath in Whangarei both online and in person at Just Thrive Studio in central Whangarei, where she also dispenses homeopathic remedies.

The seed for Fruition was planted at the Auckland Baby Show some years ago where the Healing Haven held a stall. Out of all the visitors, less than one percent had any idea what homeopathy was. Most thought it was aromatherapy or naturopathy. Some had never heard the term at all.

She realised also that in all the time she had been working as a homeopath, many of the people around her still didn't know how simple remedies could help in every day life.

The idea for Fruition grew and grew. Although the business was already in creation by the end of 2019, it wasn't until 2020 hit with all it's glory that the time had really come to make the leap.

I always had an interest in Natural Health – namely vitamins and supplements and herbs. My mother was always looking for more natural options for us. When I was two years old I had reoccurring tonsillitis. Eventually, my mother took me to a homeopath who prescribed me a remedy. I did not have tonsillitis again for over 20 years.

After high school, I looked at Herbal Medicine courses, but decided to study business instead. That lead to working for a very reputable skin care company. After a couple of years, I returned to study for my Legal Executive Certificate. A North Shore law firm took me on, and I worked there for a few years, even beginning some of my university papers towards a Law Degree, before hopping on a plane and setting off for great OE adventures. I worked in law firms in  Australia, London and Scotland before returning home to NZ where my eldest son was born.

At two months old my lovely little baby erupted in head-to-toe eczema. He was allergic to dust mites, animal danders, pollens and many foods. To ease his discomfort, I tried everything and anything. Along the way, I reawakened that long-ago interest in studying natural health, and began looking at naturopathic colleges. Somehow, I was side-tracked into a weekend of homeopathy. There, I fell in love with homeopathy and signed up for my four year Level 7 Diploma which I qualified with Merit from in 2012. I have never looked back!

Since then I have had another child and moved to rural Whangarei where I work remotely as well as from my home clinic. I was blessed to work with the wonderful Lee-Anne McCall from the Healing Haven for nearly 8 years, and have thoroughly loved (and still do) helping people return to health.

There is nothing quite so wonderful as seeing the reaction of someone after taking a remedy for something they would normally have put up with. And I love knowing that someone’s new awareness will change their life, simply by having a few of these remedies to support them.
