inflammation

I’m a 57 year old male, had no history of illness, full on active. At age 54 I developed dry eyes, and what seemed to be systemic inflammation. Tendons and ligaments hurt and I was prone to niggling muscle injuries. I began treatment with Herba Medica. Following various tests, turns out I had some significant imbalance in my gut biome. Andrea started me on a treatment plan. 18 months in I am feeling way better, like things are calming down, injuries are fewer, very little tendon pain. It’s a steady improvement over a dramatic one. I’m still on treatment and keep pretty much to the diet plan set by Andrea. The process of moving from a health problem and then gradually returning to a healthy state has been and continues to be both fascinating and enlightening.

Relief from Digestive Issues

After many, many years of suffering an array of distressing gut problems I thankfully found Andrea.

She was determined to pinpoint the root causes and steered me through various tests and herbal treatments with
kindness, understanding, clarity and expertise.

To finally know and understand the cause and be able to alleviate the symptoms is a huge relief both physically
and mentally.
I am so grateful to Andrea.

Staying off Anti-Depressants

I will always be grateful for having met Andrea. I was introduced to her some years ago for help in coming off antidepressants which I had been taking on and off for years.

I had failed a number of times trying to come off them the conventional way and was ready to try a different approach.

I am so glad that I did!

With Andrea’s lovely herbs, teas and recommendations I have been anti-depressant free for over five years and feel more confident and happy.

Changed our lives..

Dear Andrea

This is a huge success story…..

As you may remember,my Son had experienced stomach pain every night for nearly 10 years.
The hospital prescribed Ranitidine to contain the pain. At first it seemed to help but then didn’t help at all.

We came to you. You recommended to steer clear of gluten at first. Then we decided on a stool sample. This showed yeast and low good bacteria.

His stomach pain eased almost immediately with your treatment, but every 5 days or so a painful tummy came back.
His stomach pain slowly began to move to longer and longer periods in between and has now been gone for 2 months.

We thank you so so very much for your extremely valuable advice. To have a child pain-free is completely amazing!!!

You have completely changed this family’s life.

Many kind regards.

Perimenopause

When the first signs of perimenopause arrived I knew that I should do something to help myself.
My Mum had a really rough time with her transition to menopause and ended up taking HRT which has never been on my list of acceptable treatments for many reasons.

My first port of call was always going to be Andrea, who is the gentlest, kindest and most generous of medical practitioners that I have ever come across.

Within two weeks of starting to take my herbal medicine my symptoms were reducing, fewer hot flushes and a much more even mood, after about three weeks, I considered myself to be symptom free; long may it continue. If anything changes I will of course reach out to Andrea again, but right now all is well in my world and I will keep taking my herbs.

Solving recurrent ear infections
Location: West SussexI’ve attended Andrea’s brilliant and insightful workshops for a while now. Having used herbal medicine myself a while ago to overcome fertility issues I had no hesitation to look to Andrea when my 6 year old kept suffering from recurrent ear infections. She’d had three lots of antibiotics to “cure” these over a six month period and every 8 weeks she would seem to get another ear infection.We met with Andrea and were prescribed not only herbs but knowledge about the … 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

Autoimmune Diet for Rheumatoid Arthritis
I am currently on day 6 of the Diet and it’s working! Unbelievably for me I am sticking to it, especially given my inner rebel and sceptic!I had a rocky start but then really knuckled down and have 100% stuck to it and the pains in my fingers and toes have almost totally gone! My body no longer feels like i have permanently been hit by a bus, full of aches and pains. The mornings are most significant in that normally, before the diet I had to lever myself out of bed as if I was a lump of le… Read more

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
