Medical Herbalist
I am a qualified Medical Herbalist practising in Brighton & Hove and Peacehaven. Home visits are available for Brighton and the surrounding areas (Hove, Woodingdean, Rottingdean, Saltdean, Portslade, Patcham, Preston and Withdean) and I have clinics at Yoga Haven in Hove, Brighton and Peacehaven Chiropractic in Peacehaven.
Herbalism is still the major form of medicine for 70% of the world's population. With centuries of traditional use and increasing numbers of modern clinical trials backing up this holistic form of treatment, more and more people are choosing to be treated with herbs. Herbalists use herbal preparations and dietary and lifestyle advice to help the body heal itself by promoting balance, easing symptoms and enhancing vitality.
