Consultations

Herbal medicine is a holistic treatment that seeks to find the underlying cause of disease and ill health rather than concentrating on symptomatic relief and is therefore tailored specifically to each person. 

In order to determine this, the first consultation may last 1–11/2 hrs. to get to know you and evaluate your physical, mental and emotional status, a detailed medical history is taken along with a physical examination, blood pressure and pulse readings.

Treatment is in the form of high quality, concentrated plant tinctures. Herb teas, tablets, creams or ointments may also be prescribed along with dietary and lifestyle advice.

At the end of your first consultation your herbal medication will be dispensed for you. You will be given enough for 2 weeks when you will need to return for a follow-up consultation to see how you are getting on and discuss on going treatment 

Rates:
1st Consultation £45.00 (approx. 60 - 90 mins)
