                                              Herbal medicines are very varied. This is because a plant or a tree is a living thing and medical herbalists may use the whole plant, the flowers, the leaves, the roots, the barks, the buds, and the stems.

                                              For many, that first visit to a medical herbalist can be a life changing experience, a chance to experience true healthcare as it should be practised. Your medical herbalist is a genuine, caring partner in health.

                                              Medical herbalists are well versed in plant medicines, as you would expect, but also understand pharmaceutical drug therapies. This allows for in-depth consideration of how herbs and drugs may work together, or conversely which herbs and drugs may not partner well together.
