Plant remedies

Herbal medicine is the use of plant remedies in the treatment of disease. It is the oldest form of medicine known. Our ancestors, by trial and error, found the most effective local plants to heal their illnesses. Now, with the advancement of science enabling us to identify the chemical constituents within these plants, we can better understand their healing powers.

Holistic approach

Medical herbalists are trained in the same diagnostic skills as orthodox doctors but take a more holistic approach to illness. The underlying cause of the problem is sought and, once identified, it is this which is treated rather than the symptoms alone.

Widely practised

Herbalism in this country is now classed as an alternative or complementary discipline, but it is still the most widely practised form of medicine worldwide, with over 80% of the world's population relying on herbs for health.
