Herbal Medicine
Herbal Medicine is the primary form of medicine throughout much of the world, and was in the UK before expansion of the pharmaceutical industry in the 1940s. An accurate diagnosis is the starting point for any effective treatment plan and is gleaned by applying clinical knowledge and experience to your presenting symptoms and exploring the context to your health challenges to identify root causes. As a fully qualified Medical Herbalist, Helen has received conventional medical and diagnostic training and undertaken training at medical clinics in London, Ireland and Whipps Cross Hospital. With years of hands-on clinical experience she can expertly and safely diagnose and treat patients using medicinal plants. Herbal Medicine can help with all the typical conditions you my otherwise consult your GP for and is especially well suited for mild to moderate, acute and chronic conditions and for people seeking a more natural approach to their health, where the underlying root causes of an illness are tackled and not just the symptoms.
Medical Herbalists are trained in the same medical, diagnostic and clinical skills as a General Practitioner Doctor.
Helen is an established wellness educator and offers community and corporate wellness seminars and events, contact her on 07807273525 for further information.
