What follows here is some information which I hope will help you clarify and also answer some of your questions, […]

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.

The Herbalist who saved Christmas
I have never written a testimonial as I am not one for sharing on computers but today I realised there must be many mums, wives,people going through the same pre christmas franticness that I am. After many years of working together wonderful Andrea has helped me get better by being not just a herbalist but an amazing teacher of life. Breathe through christmas and bathe in epsom salts thank you Andrea for reminding me life is so simple if you let it be.

Andrea has changed my life!
I am 38 and have struggled with fatigue what feels like my whole life. Andrea has helped me and has changed my life, i am so grateful that i was introduced to Andrea from a friend.

Back to normal
Following almost 20 years of surgery, antibiotics and steroids for sinusitis, I became extremely run down, caught Pneumonia and almost died. I spent 10 days in hospital. Thank goodness for the NHS and their life saving care. Yet it was Andrea and her herbs (the girls!) that allowed me to live my life again. It has now been over a year since my first visit to her calm and quiet surgery. I always look forward to going. Since the first visit, my health and energy improved and continues to do so.… Read more

Sjögren’s Syndrome
I’ve lost count of the different specialists who have tried to help me alleviate the varied symptoms of Sjögren’s Syndrome – and the accompanying pain and discomfort. Relief from it all came only if one accepted unwelcome side effects from prescription pain killers, whose effectiveness diminished over time. Seeing Andrea has enabled me to change all that. Her methodical approach, drawing on a mix of hard science and ancient lore, has been holistic in the sense that she treated me, not my illn… Read more

First Aid Kit Workshop, Fiona - Worthing
A fabulous workshop with handouts of relevant information. Andrea makes the session fun, whilst sharing her love and knowledge of herbalism in an interactive way. Being able to make products to bring home was just superb, I look forward to the next one!

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 r… 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
