Suitable for both children and adults, herbal medicine can treat many of the problems you might consult your GP about. A qualified herbal practitioner will also advise you to see your GP too where appropriate.
Some conditions that are commonly seen by herbalists include:
- Stress, fatigue, insomnia
- Recurrent coughs, colds, tonsillitis
- Digestive problems like indigestion, peptic ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease
- Circulatory problems such as high blood pressure, angina, varicose veins
- Skin complaints such as eczema, psoriasis, acne, hives, molluscum
- Headaches and migraine
- Hayfever, allergies, asthma
- Autoimmune disorders, e.g. rheumatoid arthritis
- Menstrual and menopausal problems
- Bladder, urinary tract and prostate problems
Herbal medicine can also be a useful adjunct to other medical treatments or therapies - for example in managing anxiety and depression, or dealing with cancer and chemotherapy. This list is far from exhaustive, and enquiries are welcomed from people with any condition.
Why not just buy the remedy I need from a shop?
