HERBAL MEDICINE

 

​

​

​

Herbal medicine is the oldest form of medicine.  It has been used in cultures all around the World for millennia and combines ancient traditions that have, today, been validated by research.

​

The integral properties of herbs work in synergy with the body, encouraging it in its own ability to heal itself. 

​

Different parts of the herbs used include the roots, seeds, leaves, flowers, stems and sometimes the whole plant.  Herbal medicine treatments can be provided in the form of extracts, powders or dried plant.

​

Herbal medicines are suitable to both acute and chronic conditions and are dispensed to each person differently as they are based on an in-depth case history and a thorough consultation. 

 

In Naturopathy, we treat the whole person and consider every body system and how they are integrating.  As the ancient philosopher Hippocrates said thousands of years ago, it is more important to know the person that has the disease than the disease the person has.

​

Herbal medicine treatments are designed to moderate activity, alleviate symptoms and strengthen body systems with an aim to prevent disease and support the body to restore balance and vitality.
