One of the main advantages of herbal medicine is its comparative safety record as against conventional medicine. While by definition, medicinal herbs have an effect on the body, adverse effects are rare. Most herbs are quite benign in nature and can be used over long periods. Often, minor ailments can be treated with over the counter herbal products.

Just as you may buy paracetamol for mild pains and headaches or cough mixes and antiseptic creams from the pharmacist, herbs can be used in a similar way. However, if your condition worsens or is. In around 90% of cases, patients are already taking medicines from their GP. Certain herbs and drugs should not be combined, although at other times herbs and drugs can complement each other.
Services
I am a member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalists - the oldest body of professional medical herbalists. My practice is based near Chorley, Lancashire and I see patients of all ages with diverse health issues. I worked as a clinical supervisor at the Leeds Clinic of Herbal Medicine for four years and I have written various health articles for my local newspaper.
The National Institute of Medical Herbalists is the oldest and largest body of professional herbalists in the UK. It requires all members to have a minimum level of qualification currently set at BSc. They have a strict code of practice and ethics. Members also have to undertake continuing professional development in the form of seminars, conferences and further independent study on a regular basis.
Herbs are plants which may be used for culinary or medicinal purposes and herbal medicine involves the use of herbs to assist the body's own innate ability for healing and repair. It has been used globally for thousands of years and some form of herbal medicine is practised in every culture and country in the world.
A consultation with a herbalist should not be a daunting prospect - on the contrary, it is a chance to speak openly and at length about your health concerns in a quiet and relaxed atmosphere, and for many people this is the first opportunity they have had to talk at length, not only about their physical health, but also their emotional well-being and any concerns or fears they may be experiencing.
