Red Clover

Herbs are amazing… this seems to be my mantra, but really they ARE! I am constantly surprised on every level and especially enjoy an opportunity for a little wild-harvesting. This morning Theo and I decided on the downs for our morning walk with Odie our Labrador, on the way I had pondered about picking a […]

Plantago

Plantago

A beautiful Sussex morning up on the south downs, I took the opportunity to gather some of the extremely abundant and lush ribwort plantain or Plantago lanceolata. An extremely useful herb, plantago can be mixed with elderflowers, eyebright and chamomile to make a tasty and effective hayfever tea.  Here it’s action is anti- histamine and […]

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.

IBS
Andrea has helped me change my life. I was diagnosed with IBS by the doctor and left for four years on tables that didn’t work. Also I had a fungal infection on one toe nail which the GP couldn’t help with either. Andrea gave me some herbs and these have done more in a month than the GP’s medicine has done in years. My Digestion is improved dramatically and my toe nail fungus has also improved. Andrea is very friendly and helpful goes beyond her duty to help her clients and its a pleasure to … Read more

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.

Sleeping after 4 very long years!
My daughter ( now nearly 5 ) has suffered with very disturbed sleep, ( waking 8-10 times a night, for 4 years ) bumpy skin , tummy aches , highly strung and generally not a happy child since the day she was born – have tried numerous trips to doctors and other health practitioner’s (spending lots of money and getting nowhere) and finally came across Andrea who to us is a heaven sent angel as she diagnosed Millie with intolerances to dairy, soya , egg and goats milk – 6 weeks on with an eliminati… Read more

A less painful Winter
I am looking forward to a less painful winter this year thanks to you and can’t thank-you enough from the bottom of my heart for making me feel so well and feeling life is worth living after all. I want everyone to know there IS an alternative to western medicine I just wish they would be brave enough to go with it and at least try. Even if you are on a low income you can still afford this wonderful medicine. You really are a truly wonderful person and I am lucky to know you.

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
