Initial Consultation                                                                                                                    

Our first appointment lasts up to 90 minutes and includes a thorough review of your medical history, diet, lifestyle, and current medications or supplements.

If appropriate, I may also carry out a basic physical assessment, which could include checking your pulse and blood pressure or listening to your heart or lungs with a stethoscope.

We will discuss your health priorities, the factors that may be contributing to your symptoms, and what you can expect moving forward. Together, we will develop an individualised treatment plan, with you actively involved in decisions about your care.

I can offer dietary and lifestyle advice and provide a personalised plan based on your individual needs and health goals. We will discuss the recommendations together so that you can make informed choices about your care.

Following your appointment, you will receive a personalised herbal prescription as part of your treatment plan. This will be posted to you soon after your appointment. Remedies may include herbal teas, tinctures, capsules or tablets, powders, or topical creams, depending on your individual needs and preferences. We will discuss the most appropriate options during your consultation, along with any dietary and lifestyle recommendations.

You only need to have an initial consultation once. If you return for further support in the future, even after a number of years, you can book a standard or longer follow-up appointment rather than paying for another initial consultation.

I will also contact you by email or telephone, whichever is most suitable, usually after a week or two, to check how you are responding to your treatment and give you an opportunity to raise any questions, concerns or reactions.

The cost of herbal medicine is not included in the consultation fee and will be discussed with you.

Follow up Appointment  Follow-up appointments are usually scheduled every 2–4 weeks, depending on your individual needs and progress. These appointments allow us to review your response to your herbal prescription, make any necessary adjustments, and discuss any new health concerns or areas you would like to explore.

If it has been some time since your last appointment, a longer consultation may be recommended.

Follow-up appointments are available as:
• Standard: 30–45 minutes – £45
• Long: 60 minutes – £60

Herbal medicines work by supporting your body’s natural healing processes returning your body to to a state of health. The time it takes to notice changes can vary depending on how long the condition has been present, as well as your body’s natural healing pace.
