bodily functions such as digestion, circulation, and elimination. As such, herbal medicines can help in most conditions,
even if they don't directly treat the illness. This is of great benefit for more chronic conditions.
The consultation is based along similar lines to those of an orthodox GP, but with more time to look at possible
underlying causes. The initial consultation normally takes about an hour, and includes basic physical examinations such
as height, weight, and blood pressure. Further physical examinations are carried out where appropriate. Follow-up
consultations normally take about half an hour, and are used to review progress and make any necessary changes to the treatment
plan.
Price List:
