Holistic Treatments

Western and Eastern Herbal Medicine

Our bodies are quite adept at repairing themselves. We use practitioner grade herbal medicine and holistic treatment protocols to aid our bodies natural ability to heal itself .

Nutrition

We believe many illnesses are caused by the foods that we consume on a daily basis. Avoiding synthetic ingredients and pesticides reduces the risk of harmful substances entering our bodies. Replacing them with cleaner, more organically grown food and natural plant remedies aids the body in healing itself and preventing future disease.

Iridology

An Iridologist examines the iris to reflect changes in the tissues of corresponding body organs. Therewith, certain conditions within the body can be translated to noticeable changes in the appearance of the client’s iris. The use of this technique is not diagnostic in nature, but rather intended towards the prevention of serious degenerative processes, by identifying bodily organs and systems that need nurturing and strengthening.

Flower Essence Therapy

Flower essence therapy is based on vibrational energetics. All plants carry their own unique vibrational energy patterns and signatures. This form of medicine harnesses the energetic qualities derived from various plants, which is then used therapeutically to raise ones own vibrational energetic frequency.

Flower essences are often used alongside herbal liquid extracts, or as stand alone therapeutics, to address issues of emotional well-being, soul development, and mind-body health. They are a form of subtle energy medicine, much alike homeopathy, acupuncture and therapeutic touch.
