Coughs and Colds Herbal tinctures and teas are very effective in relieving symptoms of coughs and cold. Reducing muscle tension in the chest area and thinning and expelling mucus, the herbal medication will soothe the airways and lungs and support the body by increasing its nature defence mechanisms. Palpitations and Varicose Veins Heart and circulatory conditions that benefit from herbal medicine include angina, elevated blood pressure, headaches, palpitations, varicose veins and piles. Irritable Bowel Syndrome Reinforced foods often include copious amounts of sugar e.g. breakfast cereals - check next time you shop. In the long term, a high consumption of sugar can have a damaging effect on the digestive system, which in turn, puts increasing demands on the liver, kidneys and pancreas. Urinary Infections Lowered immunity increases susceptibility to bacterial infections and autoimmune disorders i.e. interstitial cystitis. Stress incontinence, water retention, inflamed prostate gland and gout all respond well to herbal medication. Eczema, Psoriasis and Acne Chronic skin conditions respond to herbal medicines that will increase blood supply to the inflamed area and eliminate toxins. Herbal creams and lotions can also help to combat fungal infections. Please Note A medical herbalist would not treat acute conditions e.g. meningitis. If you are in any doubt about your health, consult your GP without delay.
