HOW I WORK

I have clinics in both Cobham, Surrey (close to M25 and A3) and Central London W1, and I offer in-person and online consultations.I keep my own herbal apothecary with over 150 herbs sourced from top-quality producers and suppliers which enables me to create bespoke herbal formulations designed for each client. I only work naturally, using high quality liquid herbals, herbal and nutritional capsules, food choices and life style advice.

At my Cobham clinic and Online fees are £120 and include initial consultation with one follow up; at my London clinic initial consultation fees are £150. Please request my T&Cs for full options. Special plans and functional tests are also available upon request. After a thorough initial consultation (up to 90 min), I will formulate for you a bespoke herbal and nutritional plan, focused on addressing your individual symptoms as well as some of the deeper factors contributing to your health problem. Herbal formulations and capsules as well as any supplements costs are fully quoted for your approval. Further refills can be supplied as needed.

My principles of practice

I have found that many of my clients have complex needs that do not fit within a particular ‘box’; thus, I always keep my approach focused on the individual.  My principle of practice isto deliver personalised medicine to suit the individual needs of each client.

Most conditions are not just the result of a single organ under stress but involve a wider maladaptation.  I aim to affect not only the outward manifestation of ill health, but also to address the underlying imbalances that are contributing to it: hormonal imbalances, digestive deficiency, lack of nutrients, excess of toxins.  My approach is holistic as I see each individual as an integrated whole, not simply as a set of symptoms.

The complexity of human biology is suitably addressed by the complexity of the herbs. This is why I only use personalised herbal formulations and natural compounds; please see visible examples of client transformations on my Eczema section.

 

What is Herbal Medicine?

Herbal medicine uses whole-medicines in the form of medical plants. It has its roots in the ancient world of Greece and Rome and in the observations and writings of famous doctors such as Hippocrates and Galen.  They used medicinal plants and codified their actions on human biology.  Their writings were re-discovered in Britain in the 16th century and became hugely successful, helping to develop a strong herbal tradition.  All peoples of the world have developed and relied on medicinal herbs for health across millennia; molecules from the same medicinal herbs were used to formulate many western pharmaceutical medicines. Nowadays, scientific research into herbs is ongoing and many of their traditional uses are confirmed. Unlike pharmaceutical medicine, herbal medicine uses the whole herb and this allows the diverse phytochemicals to work in synergy with the body, to support and expand its own innate healing power.
