Herbal Medicine
A personalised, holistic approach to health and wellbeing
Herbal medicine is a traditional system of healthcare that uses medicinal plants to support health and wellbeing.
Modern herbal medicine combines the long-established use of medicinal plants with contemporary knowledge of health, alongside an understanding of each person's individual needs.
A Medical Herbalist takes a holistic approach, looking beyond individual symptoms to understand the wider picture of your health. This may include your medical history, current health concerns, diet, lifestyle, sleep, stress and emotional wellbeing, as well as any medication or supplements you are currently taking.
The aim is to understand the factors that may be contributing to your health concerns and develop an individual treatment plan that is appropriate for you.
What can herbal medicine support?
People consult a Medical Herbalist for many different reasons. Some may be looking for additional support with an ongoing health concern, while others may simply want to take a more holistic and proactive approach to their
health and wellbeing.
• Menopause and perimenopause
• Hormonal and menstrual health
• Digestive concerns
• Stress and anxiety
• Sleep difficulties
• Fatigue and low energy
• Skin concerns
• Joint and musculoskeletal health
• General health and wellbeing
Herbal medicine can also be used alongside conventional healthcare where appropriate. Your current medication, medical history and any existing treatment are considered as part of your consultation.
What happens during a herbal medicine consultation?
Your first consultation is an opportunity to explore your health in depth.
Rather than looking at one symptom in isolation, Dalbir will take a detailed health history and discuss your current concerns, medical history, medication, diet, lifestyle, sleep, stress and other factors that may be relevant to your
wellbeing.
This provides a fuller picture of your health and allows an individual treatment plan to be developed.
Where appropriate, this may include a personalised herbal prescription together with practical dietary and lifestyle recommendations. Follow-up consultations provide an opportunity to review your progress and adapt your
treatment as your needs change.
Herbal prescriptions are selected for the individual rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
A supportive, individual approach
An important part of the consultation is having the time and space to talk about your health and feel heard.
Dalbir's approach is patient-centred and collaborative, helping you to better understand your health while
providing practical and realistic support that can be incorporated into everyday life.
