How Herbs Are Prescribed
Raw & pure herbs
Raw and pure herbs are blended to suit each individual patient and then prepared freshly by you each time you take them. This method avoids un-necessary
processing and preserves the natural potency of the herbs.
Electuaries - an age old method of combining specially selected herbs & minerals,
naturally preserved in a base of pure honey. A very high quality potent medicine.
Powders
Powders – made with prescribed herbs and nutrients, these have very little
processing are easily absorbed, easy to swallow and pleasant to taste.
Tablets and (vegetarian) capsules - a compact and easy to take form of herbs. We
make our own or source tablets from only the best suppliers where we are confident
of the quality of the raw ingredients and methods of making and storing.
Syrups – these are preferred by some patients and can be more effective, for
example in the case of coughs or general weakness.
Mineral & vitamin
supplements
Alchemical medicines – occasionally we prescribe medicines made from precious
metals and gems rendered safe and medicinally beneficial by ancient processes.
Mineral and vitamin supplements – these are prescribed to address the common
problem of depletion which comes about through modern diet, stress and low levels
of nutrients in our foods. Our supplements are high quality and ‘bio-available’ (easily
absorbed by the body) and recreate a natural state of balance in the body,
strengthening the whole system and improving the response to other treatments.
Tablets
Tinctures and fluid extracts are sometimes a more convenient way in which to
take herbs, although we seldom use this form of treatment as processing causes the
herbs to loose some natural vitality and potency.
All our products are free from sweeteners and preservatives other than nature’s own. |
