What I Offer

One of the great strengths of herbal medicine and acupuncture is that treatment is specifically designed for each individual's unique set of health challenges. Focussing on both symptoms and the root causes of disease, treatment is aimed at correcting any internal imbalances and stimulating the body's natural healing abilities. Beneficial side effects of treatment include: better immunity and digestion, increased energy, deeper sleep, reduced anxiety and deeper relaxation.

As a holistic health practitioner in Yeovil I offer individualised treatments for a wide range of physical and emotional conditions using a combination of western herbal medicine, acupuncture, Chinese patent herbal remedies, moxibustion, guasha and cupping therapy alongside counselling skills and lifestyle advice. Treatments are tailored to your specific needs and can vary quite significantly between people suffering from the same condition.

A detailed case history, pulse and tongue diagnosis and your own invaluable insights about what's going on, all enable me to make sense of seemingly unrelated symptoms. In this way, treatment can produce results even if there is no official medical diagnosis. On top of this, the understanding gained from having an alternative explanation of illness can open up new perspectives and inspire a greater sense of personal engagement.

Treatment works well alongside orthodox medicine and can be helpful in relieving the side effects of medication including chemo and radio therapy. As a holistic medicine practitioner in Yeovil, I am very happy to work alongside your GP, consultant or other health practitioners and have been trained to ensure that the herbs prescribed do not interact with any current medication you take.
