Chinese Herbal Medicine

Sometimes it is necessary to use herbs with certain conditions, either in isolation or in conjunction with other therapies such as acupuncture. Many of the components of the formulae we prescribe may already be found in our diets – eg: angelica, ginger, dates, liquorice etc. We obtain our herbs from quality assured sources. The GMP (Generally accepted Manufacturing Procedures) standard is used to ensure the safety of each formula when used by a professional.

The training of an herbalist typically consists of a two year post graduate or masters training.
