Herbal Medicine:

What can it treat?

Professional Herbal Medicine, with herbal medicines dispensed for the individual patient after a confidential consultation, can help a wide range of health disorders.

Most illnesses are due to underlying imbalances in bodily functions; e.g. skin disease can reflect a sluggish metabolism, poor elimination, inappropriate diet, nervous irritability or exposure to pollution. Successful Herbal Medicine treats the whole person not the disease, the underlying cause not merely the symptoms.

For example this approach has proved beneficial for people with:

How does it work?

During an initial consultation lasting at least an hour, I will take a full medical history and conduct any physical examinations deemed necessary. This will enable me to make an assessment of which herbal remedies to mix together to suit your individual needs. The medicine corrects imbalances and restores vitality as well as addressing the symptoms you suffer.

In this way I offer you a holistic treatment. I will see you at a follow-up appointment every 3-4 weeks to check your progress and change your medicine as necessary.

All ages can benefit, from 0 to 99+, doses and particular remedies used being varied accordingly.

Your medicine will be your own personal prescription and should be treated like other medicines, i.e. stick to the dosage and do not offer the medicine to others.

How long will it take?

Some patients get better very quickly and only two or three visits may be necessary.

People with long-standing disorders may need several months of herbal treatment before a satisfactory improvement is seen. Each individual is different and will receive a different herbal regime.
