Herbal medicine is a holisitc approach that treats the whole person (including diet and lifestyle) and their constition, in order to relieve symptoms. I work alongside you to enable you to take back control of your own health and wellbeing.
Initial appointment: We spend spend 1-1.5 hours in the initial appointment to delve into your medical history, family history, your current lifestyle, emotional wellbeing and any other symptoms that are occurring. This enables me to take a holistic approach. Ultimately, the herbs only provide one prong of a treatment plan, with changes to diet and lifestyle also being foundational blocks we’ll work on together.
Follow-ups: Usually 1-3 follow-up appointments are needed, but this depends on the person and the nature of the condition.
Herbal remedies: In most cases, I will prescribe herbal remedies to be taken internally. I use whole plants (not standardised extracts, like apharmaceuticals) that are made into tincutures, teas, capsules or topical applications. I make the majority of the herbal remedies myself from herbs that I either grow or forage. Where herbs are not available locally, I buy them in from sustainable sources.
