Herbalists take a holistic approach to treatment. Herbal medicine is used to treat people, rather than conditions. Because everyone deals with illness in their own way, each person needs individual treatment.

We take time to compile a full picture of each patient before diagnosis and the prescription of medicine. A course of treatment is usually a one-hour first appointment, with one or two half-hour follow-ups. Medicine can be collected or sent by post.

People bring to a herbalist many problems, but conditions that we commonly see are skin complaints, digestive disorders, hormone imbalances and emotional problems.

Herbal medicine is renowned as a safe therapy, and medical herbalists can work alongside orthodox medical treatment as they understand medical practice and know about possible drug interactions. Herbal medicine is particularly suitable for children and the elderly, being gentle and with few if any side effects.
