Serving the Bayside community for over 40 years — combining time-honoured natural medicine with advanced medical technologies to find and treat the root cause of your health concerns.
At Como Health Group, we believe your body has an extraordinary capacity to heal — when given the right support. Founded in 1990 by Chris Ravesi and now led alongside Shaun French, our Beaumaris clinic has spent more than four decades helping patients across Bayside Melbourne move beyond short-term symptom relief and achieve genuine, lasting health.
We specialise in acupuncture and naturopathy, integrated with a suite of advanced medical technologies you won’t find at most clinics. Whether you’re managing chronic pain, fatigue, hormonal imbalance, digestive disorders, stress, or simply seeking to age well, our approach is the same: understand the cause, treat the whole person, and build a foundation for long-term wellbeing.
Why Como Health Group
Founded in Beaumaris in 1990, Como Health Group has served generations of Bayside families. Our longevity is built on outcomes — and on a genuine commitment to non-pharmaceutical, root-cause healthcare that respects your body’s natural healing intelligence.
Our practitioners bring exceptional depth of training. Founder Chris Ravesi has undertaken advanced studies in anti-ageing medicine in the USA and biological medicine in Germany — expertise that shapes every treatment at Como Health Group. Shaun French holds a Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture) from RMIT and a Bachelor of Health Science (Naturopathy), and serves as a clinical academic at Torrens University.
We integrate a range of evidence-informed medical technologies that elevate our clinical outcomes beyond traditional natural medicine alone. These include ONDAMED biophysical therapy, NeurOptimal brain training, laser hemotherapy, photomedicine, activated oxygen therapy, and full-spectrum infrared sauna — a combination that represents a genuine point of difference in integrative healthcare across Melbourne.
Every treatment plan at Como Health Group is personalised, non-pharmaceutical, and designed to address underlying drivers of disease — not just manage symptoms. We have helped patients where conventional medicine has not provided answers, because we take the time to understand the whole picture.
OUR CORE SERVICES
Acupuncture
Registered acupuncturists with decades of clinical experience. We treat pain, stress, digestive health, hormonal conditions, fatigue, anxiety, respiratory issues, post-viral syndromes, and more — using both traditional Chinese medical theory and modern biomedical research to guide every treatment.
Naturopathy
Comprehensive naturopathic care combining clinical nutrition, herbal medicine, European biological medicine, lifestyle medicine, and functional testing. We identify and address the modifiable drivers of chronic illness — gut health, environmental exposures, stress, sleep, and nutrition.
Advanced Medical Technologies
As part of our integrative model, we offer ONDAMED, NeurOptimal brain training, laser hemotherapy, photomedicine (LED & laser), activated oxygen therapy, biopuncture, nebulisation therapy, and Hydrosun infrared heat therapy. These technologies extend what is achievable through natural medicine alone.
