A HERBAL CONSULTATION - WHATS INVOLVED
Herbal consultation involves a taking of full case history including presenting symptoms, present medication, supplementation, diet and lifestyle. All onsite herbal & nutrition consultations include iridology. An iris picture provides further understanding of the strengths & weaknesses of the patient. Please do not wear contact lenses on the day of consultation. Online consultations can include iridology if a clear iris photo is provided in advance.
RECOVERY PLAN – The focus of the healing protocol is decided by careful consideration of all collected information and with this a detailed nutrition & lifestyle plan is provided together with personalised herbal formulas. These herbal formulas can be in the form of tinctures, powders, teas or capsules.
SUPPORT – A first consultation lasts between 1.5hrs – 2hrs and follow up 1hr. Herbs are posted or collected within a few days of the consultation. The cost of the herbs are additional to the herbal consultation fee. Outside of consultation times I put in many additional hours on a case preparing personalised reports and designing and mixing formulas in the dispensary. Individuals also have unlimited email support mid appointments. Prices listed for consultation & herbs take this into account. 30min phone consultation can be booked for general check in but not suitable for first time patients.
SUCCESS – When patients follow advice & takes herbal formulas provided there is a very high success rate. People are generally asked to commit to 3 consultations to see real and lasting change. Repeat prescriptions do not require a consultation & can be ordered by phone. You should allow for approx. €15 – €35 per week for personalised herbal formulas & or supplements when attending clinic. Plse FAQ’s for a general price list.

Testimonials
“After 2 weeks treatment with herbal medicine the shoulder stiffness was very much improved and after 3 months treatment I haven’t had chronic pain like before. I also haven’t had pain episodes in my stomach during the treatment and I’ve also, as a pleasant side effect, lost 8kg in 3 months. I’m much more confident that I can get rid of the pain I’ve been going through once and for all.”
“I’m in my 3rd month of attending Siobhán. Her knowledge and overview of the body and it’s metabolism is really unbelievable, and how herbs can make such a difference. The improved results are apparent on my repeat blood tests and the signs are visible. Her interest and advise goes on between visits. Thank you Siobhán, I can only recommend that anyone with ailments that are bothering to give Siobhán a call.”
“I’ve just completed a course of herbal treatment with Siobhan and I feel amazing. I had been struggling with IBS and Rosacea long term and was beginning to loose my joy. I can honestly say I feel amazing glowing from the inside out.”
“Siobhan prepared delicious tea to help to clear my lungs (I’ve always been struggling with chest infections) and a herbal tincture to help my back (not as delicious but super powerful). I am now nearly 100%. Siobhan’s guidance and absolutely amazing herbs have improved my quality of life significantly. I’m so happy our paths crossed Siobhan – thank you!”
