About Netta- the naturopath
Nice to meet you!
My name is Netta Pelleg-Gerad, a certified Naturopath (ND), Clinical Herbalist, and Aromatherapist.
I am trained in the U.S.-based Functional Medicine approach for Autism Spectrum Disorders, following the principles of Dr. Walsh, and specialize in the Nemechek Protocol for addressing gut microbiome imbalances.
I currently serve on the board of the Israeli Naturopathic Association.
My professional focus is on treating autism, ADHD, and developmental delays using evidence-based natural therapies, inspired by my own family’s experience. I apply biomedical and functional protocols widely used in the U.S., aiming to address the root causes—rather than just the symptoms—of neuro-developmental challenges.
When you come to me, I provide full support to help you or your child manage and overcome health issues with clarity, compassion, and a personalized plan.
My clinical knowledge is built on formal education, extensive continuing training (in Israel and abroad), and most of all—real-world experience with my own children and the many families I’ve had the honor to accompany.
I’m proud to have helped my children and many others move forward without the use of medication, with meaningful improvements in behavior, learning, and quality of life.
My credo
-
I believe that within every child lies the seed of communication.
-
I believe that a combination of genetic predisposition and life circumstances can lead to developmental delays in some children.
-
I believe that by improving nutrition, we can enhance overall health: consuming foods to which the body is sensitive or allergic can trigger immune responses and hinder proper development. Nutritional deficiencies may lead to fatigue, headaches, and impaired growth. When the body receives all the essential nutrients it needs, it gains the optimal conditions to heal and move forward.
-
I believe the brain develops at its own pace—and that growth cannot be rushed, only supported by the right environment.
-
I believe in the body’s innate ability to heal itself.
-
I believe that the most important thing is to love our children unconditionally.
-
And I believe in you—the parents—your unwavering commitment to help your child grow, thrive, and live a healthy, happy life.
