Myrobalan Clinic

General information

Thank you so much for visiting my page. Here at Myrobalan Clinic I can offer you a unique way of working with your health since I combine over 20 years of Tibetan Medicinal training and practice with a Western herbal medicinal treatment approach. I'm absolutely passionate about identifying and treating the root cause of illness which is different in every case, even if the 'named disease state' is the same as in other patients. If the root cause of illness is addressed then true sustainable healing is possible (as opposed to temporary relief). My aim is always to help patients take charge of their own health and to not 'need me'.

I spend time investigating the detailed case and then formulate a prescription especially for each patient, taking into account Tibetan diagnostic techniques as well as traditional Western herbal medicine. This prescription is likely to involve dietary and lifestyle advice, herbal medicines and sometimes mindfulness, meditation or visualisation techniques. There's no 'one size fits all' prescription strategy, everyone is different and I aim to tailor my approach to fit in with what people are comfortable with as well as what is needed to effect a positive change to a patient's health. I will always be honest about how I can help and give the best estimate possible of how long it is likely to take before you see results. My priority is to help people be as healthy as possible and to get the most out of this precious human life that we share. I'm not in the business of simply 'selling herbs. I view my dispensary as precious medicine to be used and taken with respect.

I grow and gather most of my herbs ensuring that they are processed at the peak of their potency to produce the best possible quality medicines.. It's hard work to work in this way but it's worth it because I know I'm prescribing fabulously vibrant medicines. I truly value the medicines that I make so that is why I don't prescribe herbs unless I know they are totally necessary and appropriate.

You'll get an understanding of my approach by having a look at my Notes here on my Facebook Page. Behind the scenes activity is documented on my blog at http://myrobalanclinic.wordpress.com/ and more official stuff is on my website www.myrobalanclinic.com

Please note that I am only available for drop ins on Tuesday and Saturday mornings 9.30 - 1.00pm. Very occasionally I'm not there on Saturday mornings so if you are travelling a significant distance to come to a Saturday drop in please feel free to email or telephone ahead of your planned trip to ensure that I will be there to answer your query. The rest of the week when I mark myself as open I'm actually in consultation with patients who have pre-booked. If you're unable to attend at a drop in session but really want to talk to me in person please do telephone me and we can try and arrange an alternative time for a 10 minute chat.
