Our Healing Philosophy
The greatest power to heal lies within you. Every person is a unique physical,
emotional, intellectual, and spiritual being,
and true wellness begins when we gently explore and address the root cause of imbalance. Our role is to support, guide, and empower you as the central focus of
your own healing journey.

Meet Tina
I’m Tina Luanne, a Clinical Aromatherapist, and founder of the Araluen Heights Wellness Centre — a space created from heart and heritage to help women feel seen, supported, and connected.
My middle name, Luanne, comes from my two grandmothers, and my ancestral name traces back to Ireland, meaning “descendant of the beloved one.” That lineage of warmth and care guides everything I do — from my essential oil blends and herbal teas to the way I welcome each person who walks through my door.
With more than 45 years in retail and community services, I’ve learned the true power of connection. I’ve seen how deeply women, especially those navigating menopause, need spaces where they can speak openly, feel understood, and find gentle support. This inspired my long‑held dream: to build a Wellness Centre, where community and wellbeing flourish together.
When I’m not blending oils or planning workshops, I’m in the garden with my partner — a patient teacher who encourages me to grow in every way. At home, our furry, feathered, and wriggly friends keep life joyful and grounded.
This new chapter is one I’m deeply proud of. The kettle’s on — come by for a chat, a moment of calm, or a fresh start. Let’s walk this wellness journey together.

Their happiness shows in every egg they lay — rich, wholesome, and loved by our community.

Biochar
Leachate Concentrate
Luanne Care
Biochar is one of the quiet, powerful ways we care for our soil. Created by transforming organic matter in low‑oxygen conditions, it becomes a rich, carbon‑dense material that helps the earth hold nutrients, breathe better, and support healthy plant growth. When we inoculate it with beneficial microbes and add it to our leachate concentrate, it becomes a living soil enhancer — boosting fertility, strengthening root development, and encouraging the biodiversity that keeps our land thriving.
It’s a simple, eco‑friendly way we give back to the earth that sustains our gardens, our animals, and our vegetable garden
Vermiculture
Leachate Concentrate
Leachate Concentrate
Our vermiculture beds are one of the quiet engines of life on our property. We’ve recently doubled our setup, allowing our earthworms to transform organic waste into rich, nutrient‑dense vermicompost that feeds our gardens naturally and sustainably. With the addition of our homemade, inoculated biochar, these castings become even more powerful — a premium blend we combine with aged compost to create thriving, resilient garden beds.
It’s a simple cycle of care: waste becomes nourishment, soil becomes abundance, and our gardens return that generosity in every harvest.
Leachate Concentrate
Leachate Concentrate
Leachate Concentrate
Our leachate concentrate — often called Worm Tea — is one of the gentle, living tonics we use to nourish our gardens. This nutrient‑rich liquid flows naturally from our vermiculture beds, carrying essential minerals and beneficial microorganisms that enrich the soil and support strong, healthy plant growth.
When we blend it with our inoculated biochar, the mixture becomes a true powerhouse for the garden — a living fertilizer that boosts soil fertility, encourages biodiversity, and gives plants the balanced nutrition they need to thrive. It’s a simple, sustainable way we return goodness back to the earth.
