Treating the root cause

 

Medical herbalists use medicines derived from plants. Plants have been used by people as medicine all over the world for thousands of years and in many countries it is still the main healthcare. Today, with advancements in science and as our understanding continues to grow, traditional herbal medicine is now also backed up by modern scientific research and clinical trials. 

​

Herbalists take a holistic approach to illness, which means we treat the whole person. We take time in the consultation to look at all medical history, familial medical history, diet, lifestyle, current health issues and emotional health and wellbeing. We help by treating the current symptoms while ultimately aiming to find, understand and treat the underlying root cause of the issue; whether physical or emotional.

​

Herbal medicine is also commonly made using plants you are familiar with, which you may have never known to be medicinal! Prepared and administered in the right way, they can transform health and wellbeing. Dandelion, nettle, hawthorn, rosehip, daisy, or rose are examples of common plants we see everyday which are wonderfully healing and useful in everyday health.
