Herbal remedies, if used as directed, are very safe. Adverse reactions are generally NOT expected.
Allergic reactions and unpleasant side effects may happen, but are rare.
If you experience reaction or unpleasant side effect when you take your herbal medicine, it is best to discontinue the medicine and contact me to discuss.
It is important that you always keep me informed about any recent or current medications (either prescribed or over the counter variety) you have been taking, so that I can check for possible interactions.
During the treatment it might be necessary for me to contact your GP, consultant or care provider. I would only ever do that with your written permission.

Where Are The Herbs From?
The herbs are acquired from UK SUPPLIERS who are registered for QUALITY AND SAFETY standards and regularly checked. If possible ORGANIC and from SUSTAINABLE sources. A very small proportion of herbs, that I like to use, are grown and self-harvested or wild crafted locally.
