Work with me to see how herbal medicine can help you...

Traditional herbal medicine sits on the foundation of good nutrition and lifestyle management. This enables the herbs to work more effectively.  

  One piece of information I need from my patients is a food diary covering two weeks to be completed ideally prior to the first consultation. You can undertake this in numerous ways, including sending me an e-mail.  

During this food diary, I want you to eat normally and enjoy the foods you like. The food diary is not about a puritanical approach to diets but to see if elements of your food consumption need to be changed to facilitate deeper healing.  

Often, foods need to be added rather than taken away.  

I will also look at your general lifestyle. 

Another piece of information I need before I see a patient is a record of any medication, supplementation or herbs that the patient may be taking already.  

Ideally, if the patient is happy to do so, photographs of these medications and preparations can be sent to me as an attachment in an e-mail.
