What is Herbal Medicine? Herbal medicine is the extraction of plant based naturally occurring chemicals in plants to treat illnesses or imbalances in the body. Unlike modern drugs that isolate and use single chemicals, herbal medicine uses the whole plant, root, leaves, flowers, bark or seeds for their healing properties. How does herbal medicine work? Herbal medicine triggers a biochemical response in the body affecting different hormones, neurotransmitters, inflammatory pathways and immune messengers. The bitter taste of liquid herbal medicine taken in small quantities can trigger ancient biological responses that protect, balance and heal the body. What do we offer We offer individualised herbal formulas specifically tailored for your health & well-being. "'Our genuine passion is to continually uphold the benchmark of quality, safety and efficacy in natural healthcare. This is underpinned by our commitment to combine the time-honoured wisdom of traditional knowledge with sound clinical experience, the rigour of scientific research and power of education.'

Most Natural therapies are safe to use with prescription drugs. However, there are always EXCEPTIONS. We strongly encourage clients to always be open and honest about all medications to all health care professionals including their Doctor, specialists, & allied care professionals when using Natural Therapies.
