​
I am very passionate about working with chronic and complex conditions.
​
As a functional medicine practitioner and Medical Herbalist, in my practice I frequently encounter a range of chronic conditions, including Lyme disease and various chronic illnesses. Lyme disease, stemming from the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi, presents a complex array of symptoms such as fatigue, joint pain, and neurological issues, necessitating a thorough and personalised approach to treatment. Chronic illnesses like autoimmune disorders, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue syndrome present ongoing challenges, characterised by persistent symptoms that significantly impact daily life.
My personalised approach integrates conventional medical testing with herbal medicines, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle modifications, acknowledging the interconnectedness of bodily systems and environmental factors. Through this integrative approach, I aim to address the underlying causes of chronic conditions and promote healing and wellness for my patients.
