I come from a family of practising herbalists
and have practised herbalism from an early age. Although I have
an extensive knowledge of herbs from all over the world, I prefer
to use mainly herbs which are local to the patients I treat, as
I believe that they have a 'symbiosis' with their own environment.
I qualified as a medical herbalist (Diploma in Botano Therapy)
with the International Register of Consultant Herbalists and Homeopaths
in Swansea. This five year training included a comprehensive study
of Diet & Nutrition, and also Naturopathy.
I am a member of the Unified Register of Herbal Practitioners, which is accredited by the European Herbal Practitioners Association, and all members have to conform to their strict code of ethics. I am also a member of the British Herbal Medicine
Association and the Natural Medicines Society.
My study and practice of Hatha Yoga enables me to offer remedial
techniques to patients for relaxation-breathing and simple structural
problems (stiff neck, joints etc) as well as Reflexology and,
Iridology diagnosis (examination of the iris).
Patients can be assured of a truly holistic treatment based on
my extensive knowledge and experience.
