The Medicines

Picture
Prescription herbal medicine is usually taken in liquid form as a mixture of medicinal tinctures. Tinctures are liquid extracts of medicinal plants made to exact specifications in order to extract and preserve the active ingredients of the plant. 
Other preparations such as teas, creams, infused oils, aromatic waters, flower essences, essential oils, powdered herbs, capsules are also sometimes used.

Ruth makes bespoke herbal prescriptions according to patients needs. A Typical prescription could contain as few or as many herbs as needed.

Medicines for some acute conditions/ first aid are also attainable from Ruth. Some basic safety information will be checked for contraindications and sometimes a short consultation is needed before medication is prescribed.

Please be in touch if you have any queries and Ruth will be happy to help.
