The Best Naturopaths in Singapore Who Really Get into the Root Causes of Illnesses
Years ago, my gut was constantly acting up. I tried almost every diet, prescription, and GI doctor, only for my digestive woes to return again and again.
Things only improved when I went down the holistic naturopathy path. Its non-invasive and plant-based methods uprooted the problem’s main cause: my diet and lifestyle (which these personal trainers have also helped me with).
The clinics below, which consistently see positive outcomes, are ideal for those looking to explore the alternative system properly.
Just keep in mind that it’s not meant to replace urgent care or treatments for serious conditions. Naturopathy heals chronic problems best if it’s part of a broader approach.
How much do naturopathic doctors charge in Singapore?
In Singapore, most naturopathic doctors charge between S$90 and S$180 per session, with subsequent visits often costing S$90 each.
Experience, specialisation location, services offered, and visit length usually dictate the costs.
1. Sundardas Naturopathic Clinic
Address: 20 Sin Ming Ln, #06-55 Midview City
Contact Details: +65 6323 6652
Operating Hours: Tue to Sat – 10 am to 7 pm
Being Asia’s first ISO-certified naturopathy centre means Sundardas is a credible pick. The clinic’s 1989 opening and Prestige Awards wins only reinforce that.
Many come in for the naturopathy lab diagnostic service. It detects underlying stressors through bio-energetic screening, ideal for those trying to resolve persistent conditions that standard testing can’t explain.
Qualified, internationally-trained NDs, such as Dr Sundardas and Dr Roslan, will then create a personalised treatment from that. The plan can involve dieting, bodywork, detox support, and/or supplements (these have improved my joints).
Our interviewees enjoyed positive results. Mood swings, eczema, allergies, and chronic pain were particularly minimised.
If we’re talking downsides, an obvious one is the lack of Monday hours. Every alternative listed here is open from Monday to Saturday.
Follow-up visits could also be longer; they’re generally limited to 30 minutes.
On the flipside, Sundardas’ pricing for initial sessions (S$100) is right for Singapore, and they reply within 24 hours.
Friendly and Empathetic
Dr Sundardas has been an indispensable part of our family’s medical journey through chronic sensitivities and pre-post cancer treatments. He has nursed us from very dire physical medical conditions back to health, and helped us manage our emotional health in our journeys. We appreciate that he’s well-versed in a big variety of alternative therapies, including but not limited to acupuncture, physical manipulation, in addition to supplements. As such, for some of us who are not able to take supplements, he has various other options too. What our family appreciates is that Dr Sundardas is discerning and insightful towards our individual medical and psycho-emotional needs, and he is sensitive in his approach. His clinic staff is also friendly and empathetic.

Highly Effective
Dr Sundardas is very knowledgeable and professional in his approach to treating patients who consult him on a wide range of medical or physical conditions. I have consulted him on my diabetic condition as well as my heart condition and found that the alternative treatments are highly effective and helpful. My wife also gets supplements from him to help with blood pressure control and general well being. The experience in the clinic is also very cordial and warm and I always feel very much at home when I visit the clinic. Overall, it is a 5 Star experience!

2. BRT Oasis of Hope
Address: 8 Sinaran Dr, #07-04/05/06 Specialist Center
Contact Details: +65 6397 6826
Operating Hours:
- Mon – 8:30 am to 3 pm
- Thu to Sat – 8:30 am to 9 pm
BRT Oasis of Hope has been offering non-invasive and drug-free treatments since 2008.
They’re a multi-specialist team, not a centre run by a single practitioner. You’ll find NDs, psychologists, dieticians, functional medicine coaches, and nutritionists under one roof here.
Service-wise, bioresonance therapy is arguably their most popular one. To test and treat conditions, it employs electromagnetic waves without requiring drugs or surgery.
Does it work? Well, interviewees with allergies, digestive issues, or chronic pain claim the scans were accurate, and so were the follow-up treatments.
That’s probably one reason many have stayed with them for over 10 years.
Just note that while lots saw positive results, bioresonance therapy isn’t completely validated by science.
It’s not a cheap service either, so don’t forget to discuss the fees when you call or email.
The good news is you can still enjoy price cuts by taking advantage of their bundles and seasonal discounts.
Caring and Dedicated
I have been a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which has been challenging with numerous side effects. However, my experience with BRT has been incredibly positive and life-changing.
The therapy has significantly helped me manage the side effects from my treatments, including numbness, dry eyes, and digestive issues. One of the greatest benefits is the peace of mind it provides, knowing that my condition is being consistently monitored.
Vincent and his team, Jelyn and Dihua, are exceptionally caring and dedicated. They have done an outstanding job in addressing my concerns and improving my overall well-being. Their professionalism and compassion have made a tremendous difference in my journey.
Thank you, BRT, for your invaluable support and care.

No Discomfort
I have been a customer of BRT Oasis of Hope for about 7 years now. I had received treatment for a variety of health issues. The treatments are totally non-invasive with no discomfort whatsoever. They have mostly been effective in addressing those health concerns and generally improving my overall health. In particular, my tinnitus went away for a few years after just a few treatments. I remain a regular customer and appreciate the therapists, especially Vincent, for their commitment to improving the health of their clients through alternative, non-invasive therapies.

3. Sebastian Liew Centre Pte. Ltd.
Address: 320 Serangoon Rd, #11-10
Contact Details: +65 6538 9978
Operating Hours:
- Mon to Fri – 9 am to 6 pm
- Sat – 9 am to 1 pm
Dr Sebastian of Sebastian Liew Centre is among Singapore’s most established NDs. His CMA-accredited practice began in 1999, and it has bagged him accolades such as the Global Health and Pharma’s Natural Medicine Specialist Award.
His treatments are grounded on phytotherapy, which uses Western herbal medicines, mainly botanical extracts, to support the body’s natural healing. What’s reassuring is that it’s science-based.
Most importantly, the clients we messaged swore by it. Individuals battling stress, back pain, eczema, numbness, anxiety, and insomnia reported improvements.
They also credited the doctor’s prescribed herbal supplements, teas, lotions, sprays, and oils, claiming they worked without side effects.
Sebastian Liew Centre is short on “manpower,” sadly. Most of the work is managed by Dr Sebastian alone, so input is limited to his perspective.
That could lead to scheduling problems as well, especially since the clinic is popular and closes early on Saturdays.
I’m very satisfied
When my eyes felt dry often and I needed to use eye drops daily, I tried Phyto-Ocushine by Leaf To Life, a product from Dr Sebastian Liew. I noticed a difference after just 2 days, and soon I forgot to use my eye drops as my eyes no longer felt dry. I’m very satisfied with this product and would recommend it to others. Thanks, Dr Liew!

Very Caring and Detailed
I have known Dr Sebastian for over 3 years. After Covid, I came across his website through a networking group. As a believer in natural healing, I was looking for ways to improve my health with herbal supplements. Dr Sebastian is very caring and detailed, and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking alternative healing.

4. Naturopathic Therapies Clinic
Address: 114 Lavender St., #10-89 CT Hub2
Contact Details: +65 8862 2543
Operating Hours:
- Mon to Fri – 11 am to 8 pm
- Sat – 10 am to 3 pm
Combining spirituality and science is Naturopathic Therapies Clinic’s selling point.
In practice, you can see it through plans that incorporate plant-based nutrition, energy healing, mindfulness practices, and guided visualisations.
Dr Saravnan is the ND and metaphysical coach who’ll oversee it. With 20-plus years of experience in holistic care, he’s no rookie.
It’s his life-changing results that impressed us most, though. Several of Dr Saravanan’s clients told us they overcame trauma and managed to avoid surgeries thanks to his support.
Similar to our last entrant, however, he lacks a multidisciplinary team. He works solo for the most part.
It would also be handy if clients had the option to book packages that bundle multiple treatments. Paying for stress and pain management separately can be expensive and inconvenient.
That said, freebies, such as the complimentary healthcheck given to couples who attend his marriage workshops, should stay.
Provides Relief
Dr Saravanan is truly an impressive holistic healer. My energy level was excellent during my recent consultation, and his attention to detail along with practical health tips is amazing. Started using the ENE Pro and hope it provides relief.

My Saviour
Dr Saravanan has been my saviour whenever I fell sick. He not only addresses physical ailments but also helps relieve stress. Thanks to him, I am back to being fit and healthy. SHIVA bless him with a long and healthy life 😇

5. Nutranourish
Address: 402 Orchard Rd, #03-07 Delfi Orchard
Contact Details: +65 9125 7500
Operating Hours:
- Mon to Tue – 9:30 am to 6:30 pm
- Wed – 10 am to 2:30 pm
- Thu to Fri – 9:30 am to 6:30 pm
- Sat – 10 am to 2:30 pm
Advanced is one way to describe Nutranourish. See, their lab testing gear comes from reputable biotech labs, such as Maxgen Labs and Vibrant Wellness.
They only use pharma-grade supplements too, mostly for mental health, gut health, heart health, energy, and sleep.
Dr Menka Gupta is the ND who’ll prescribe them. That’s relevant because she has been around for over 13 years and is touted as Singapore and India’s very first IFM-certified practitioner.
Unfortunately, there’s no massive specialist team backing her up. Support only comes from Dr Deepika Gopalan, a mindfulness and health coach.
Nutranourish’s pricing could also make some folks wince. The lab tests and supplements are effective, yes, but they come at a premium, and so do the S$200–S$295 consults.
But if you have the cash, it’s not a daft splurge. Even big-name companies like Google and Zendesk have worked with the clinic, after all.
Very Patient
Through functional medicine healing approach, my son’s condition is getting better. Dr Menka helps to educate us on diet and lifestyle which supports his condition. She is very patient and kind towards her patients. Would definitely recommend this to those who are willing to make lifestyle changes to improve their condition and not just depending on medicine.

Comprehensive Approach
I have been seeing Dr Menka for more than 9 months now. Dr Menka took a holistic approach, diving deep to uncover the root cause of my issues. Through thorough testing and personalized recommendations, I have seen significant improvement in my symptoms and overall well-being. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a comprehensive approach to their health.
