Testimonials
I was going through the menopause but didn't realise the massive impact this was having on my mental and physical health. For several years I'd had 'brain fog' which was getting worse - I couldn't process simple information and my memory was so poor that I was struggling every day at work which was causing more anxiety and stress. I was extremely tearful and lacking in energy.
My sleep was very poor, I had pains in my legs and joints particularly at night and was waking early every day unable to get back to sleep. I was also having hot flushes and some night sweats.
Within two weeks of taking Melinda's herbal medicine I started to feel better. Four months later, I nolonger have any of the physical symptoms, the hot flushes have stopped as have the pains. I am sleeping so much better. I have noticed my memory is starting to improve and amazingly the 'brain fog' has completely gone which for me is life changing. To be able to think clearly every day is just brilliant. I am no longer feeling anxious or tearful, I feel much stronger mentally and more able to deal with the stresses of everyday life.
I am so relieved I didn't have to resort to using HRT and having to take medication that I really didn't want to take just to be able to function each day. I am also eating more healthily after advice from Melinda about making some small changes to my diet to help balance my hormones.
Melinda was the first person who actually listened to me properly, just talking to her helped me feel better. I have recommended her to all my friends particularly those with menopause symptoms. I feel she has literally saved my life.

I worked with Melinda to get support with the changes that come with perimenopause. My period had become very erratic, my body temperature was constantly up and I was feeling low on energy. Melinda really focuses on your whole body and mind and looks at your wellbeing history from the early years onwards, rather than just dealing with something in isolation. Everything changed as the appointments progressed and I took the prescribed herbal medicine: the hot episodes went away, my period became regular again and my libido returned. Sleep got better and I feel on the whole very relaxed and less anxious.
I feel so blessed to have met Melinda!

I can’t thank Melinda enough for helping me shake off a persistent, lingering virus I’d been struggling to get over. Her kind listening ear and consultation made me feel supported and the herbal treatment she prescribed has really built up my immune system and supported my recovery. Thanks Melinda, it feels so good to be well again.

I consulted Melinda to assess my daughter's long-standing challenges with her immune system, frequent colds, dry skin and energy levels. The consultations were clear, thorough and informative. The treatments and supporting advice about diet and lifestyle were highly successful and we have noticed a significant improvement. Melinda's caring and sensitive manner greatly helped, especially as my daughter can get quite anxious. I cannot recommend her more highly - thank you!

I visited Melinda to get help with a chronic cough that seems to appear and hang around for the autumn and winter months every year. She spent over an hour with me, asking questions that took everything into account and provided her with all the information to make a really holistic diagnosis. I’ve never experienced such great attention to detail, all managed with kindness, care and thoughtfulness. And I’m thrilled to report that I got through all the autumn and winter months cough-free...for the first time in years!
