Welsh Village to Revive Herbal Traditions

I came across this article today and thought to share it here.. wonderful! A remote Welsh village called Myddfai is to revive its centuries old tradition of herbal treatments. Myddfai is a tiny village with a parish population of about 400, but in recent years the fortunes of the village have been steadily dwindling as […]

Elderflower

After the rain today, the distinct aroma of Elder Flowers infused the air up on the downs! You would be forgiven for thinking that this Herbalist spends all her time out in Nature! I do have Clinic’s and a dispensary to run, but I do also have a dog, hence the wonderful daily walk’s! The […]

Shingles
After suffering several outbreaks of very painful skin eruptions over a period of about 18 months which doctors could not explain but prescribed antibiotics for, I went to see Andrea. She recognised the skin problem as shingles and prescribed herbs which stopped further outbreaks. It has been almost 2 years now without any further occurrence. Andrea also helped diagnose a severe vitamin deficiency which has now been remedied. I am so lucky to know such a special, caring healer. Thank you Andrea

Help with ME/CFS
Went to see Andrea for a consultation again yesterday. I suffer from ME, and since she has helped me in the past to feel improvement, after going through a rough patch with it recently I turned to her for some help. She gave me a lot of helpful advice and also set me up with some herbal medicine and different vitamin supplements, specifically for my needs and to help support my health. Well, last night I took two of the Withania capsules before bed as she suggested and used some relaxation and… Read more

Looking to get my energy back...
I approached Andrea suffering from Adrenal Fatigue, which was persistent and was impacting significantly on my activities so I did what was necessary, but had no energy to enjoy other activities. Armed with my food diary and a recent blood test, my initial consultation was impressive – discussing all concerns with a very approachable Andrea, who explained clearly what she felt were pertinent issues, came up with a treatment protocol of supplements, herbs, diet and self-help, with a couple of … Read more

Fantastic workshop
Hi Andrea, Thank you so much for a fantastic workshop! I really enjoyed it – I’m sure we all did! I’m enjoying those wonderful bottles of syrup magic – I’ve never tasted anything more delicious – tastes of the countryside, sunshine, fresh air, of the pulse of life. You gave us lots of info, and lots to think about. Collected a few rosehips today too, on the Downs. I’d love to do more workshops – even if the subject isn’t something I’d necessarily do at home, it broadens one’s understa… Read more

The Magic of Herbs
Andrea was recommended to me just over 5 years ago following major surgery and some gruelling chemotherapy for pancreactic cancer. She has supported me since then with her vast knowledge and wisdom, prescribing her wonderful herbs and tailoring them to my changing needs as the years have gone by. I have made the sort of progress I never dreamed possible and this year has been amazing. Following a DNA test, my energy levels have been restored, I am feeling ‘back to normal’ and getting on wi… Read more

Hashimoto's
I want to shout from the roof tops – I am SO MUCH BETTER I have worked with Andrea for  a few years on fibroids, adrenal weakness and for the past 3 years on an autoimmune thyroid  condition, from which point I embarked on both a huge change to my diet as well as taking herbs and supplements. I was VERY debilitated, unable to work at all, pacing myself through the day with a lot of rest alongside feeling utterly dreadful for days on end.
I have made slow progress and improvements as well as s… Read more

Integral to my Motherhood Journey
I first met Andrea a few years ago during one of her herbal walks at Culberry Nursery. I immediately felt her light, joy and kindness – making herbalism sound so effective and magical, yet accessible. I’ve taken some of her wonderful workshops, and she has been an extremely integral part of my motherhood journey – from the very beginning right through to the present…and my daughter is now almost four years old! She has also been a wonderful, generous and supportive friend. I cannot recomme… Read more

Acid Reflux
I was diagnosed with a hiatus hernia, and on another endoscopy , they found a pool of bile in the stomach. Both endoscopes were due to symptoms of pain, discomfort and reflux . I was given Omeprazole 20-40 mgs over several years. Reading on the Internet the problems encountered from long term proton pump inhibitors, I was delighted when I started Herbal Treatment with Andrea which included balancing my whole digestion. The reflux has now resolved and I am symptom free and off the Omeprazole. I … Read more

High Blood Pressure
Andrea was recommended to me by a friend. I saw her in relation to my high blood pressure, which had been pointed out by the hospital, as they were dealing with my collapsed lung. Needless to say they wanted to deal with the problem with drugs and more drugs. Andrea was a revelation, my blood pressure has reduced to healthy levels and has remained there after a very short time. I now don’t need to take anything. Thanks Andrea.
