Herbal Medicine is a traditional way of treating many disorders and diseases through the use of plants. It has been part of our cultural heritage for centuries. A healthy body is balanced and in harmony. In my practice I look for the root or underlying causes of a chronic problem and treat this holistically. In this way the patient will regain and retain their health and vitality. Because everyone
is unique apparently similar symptoms are likely to have different causes which is why it is vital to treat at this level rather than purely symtomatically. Medicines will be prepared individually according to each patient's specific requirements. Plants are chosen for their unique properties. The flowers, leaves, roots, seeds and bark may all be used. Medicines will be in the form of a liquid tincture, capsules, teas or ointments. My own organic herbs will be used where available. An initial prescription will be made up and instructions given for its dose etc. This will be assessed at the following consultation.
