I am so happy to have discovered Andrea! I had been suffering for so long before with various problems including recurrent thrush, very low mood and PMS symptoms and many gut-related issues which have now almost completely disappeared. Where doctors before had just told me that all these symptoms were chronic, or prescribed antibiotics which seemed to make things worse, Andrea took time to identify exactly what was going on in my body and to plan a treatment that took in to account all aspects o… Read more

I felt a complete sense of trust and safety after my visit to you.
Complete sense of trust
A friend with a diagnosis of MS recommended Andrea to me. I too had been experiencing neurological symptoms (pins and needles in my hands and feet; difficulty walking) and after such a glowing review, decided that I would book an appointment. I am so glad that I did! One of the first things you notice when you meet Andrea is how calm and welcoming she is, so unlike any healthcare experience I’ve had. Because I felt at ease, I was able to talk about my experience in a safe space. Andr… Read more

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
Acid Reflux
Hi Andrea Just wanted to let you know how much better I’m feeling! The last few days I’ve felt actual hunger, something I haven’t felt for months. Your wonderful herbs and particularly I feel, the Agrimony, are doing wonders. I’m off the omeprazole now ( for almost a week) and no repercussions. I’m sticking to wheat and dairy free with the exception of a little goat cheese, no bright stools at all. This lovely lady presented with a history of medication of proton pump inhibitors, s… Read more
Better Digestion and no Omeprazole!
After I retired I was exhausted and after pneumonia and another chest infection I had shingles. I had got over the worst of the virus but the symptoms never seemed to leave me completely and after the fourth recurrence I was desperate for some relief and a return of at least some of my lost energy. I had never experienced Medical Herbalism before but I immediately found Andrea to be understanding and knowledgeable. After several months taking the herbal medicines I am relieved to have at last sh… Read more

I am so pleased I was introduced to Andrea Hughes as my Doctor prescribed Statins and I had bad side effects in the liver. Since seeing Andrea and taking the Herbs my cholesterol levels have gone down considerably with no side effects. She also added extra herbs to help relieve Arthritis in my wrist which is no longer a problem. I have just been diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes and again she has helped me. Thanks Andrea.
No to Statins
Location: West Sussex I’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
