IRIDOLOGY

Iridology allows us to see what specific treatments are required for each client to clear whatever the problem they have come in with. Each person will require a different treatment even if they have the same "disease".
This iris shows a strong tendency to inflammatory conditions especially in the gut and lymphatic congestion. Stimulating the lymph flow with herbs and massage and a few food eliminations were able to clear the clients allergic reactions.

WHAT DOES THE IRIS REVEAL ABOUT YOU?

PSORIASIS AND ECZEMA TREATMENTS

We have a very successful track record in treating difficult to resolve skin conditions, including psoriasis, eczema, fungal infections and even some conditions the doctor couldn't name.

We hand craft ointments from scratch using the best quality essential oils and herbs with no fillers, preservatives or inactive ingredients. Then we tailor make an ointment specific for the client.

FOOD INTOLERANCE TESTING

This is a finger-prick blood test which assesses the body's immune response to 58 foods. An "intolerance" is a delayed hypersensitivity reaction which is why it can be difficult to identify with elimination diets.

Conditions related to food intolerance include eczema, asthma, IBS, hayfever, migraines, acne, depression and behavioural problems.

The test is performed in clinic using a fresh blood sample for improved accuracy, it takes about 1 hour to get the result.

CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY

This is a very gentle therapy with profound results, excellent for eliminating chronic pain syndromes and "resetting" muscle memory.  It works with the bones of the neck, head and pelvis to open up space for nerves and restore correct movement to the bones.
Especially effective for vertigo, migraine, scoliosis, low back pain, sciatica and TMJ problems.

COMPOUNDING MEDICINES

We are an Apothecary in the true sense of the word meaning we compound and dispense medicines, including personalised formulas. We use organic herbs, vitamins and other neutraceuticals to compound our own range of supplements. We create capsules and powders for individuals and specific conditions.

Our range includes -

herbal capsules, tinctures and powder blends
vitamin and mineral powder blends
topical treatments

There are three reasons we started compounding. The first was that sometimes in order to use all the herbs and nutraceuticals we wanted to prescribe, four or five products would have to be used. This is prohibitive both in cost and compliance.
In most cases we are able to blend all the ingredients we require into one formula.

The second is excipients; non-therapeutic substances that are necessary for the ease of manufacture, formation or preservation of a supplement.
Our medicines contain ZERO fillers or additives which are frequently allergenic, ZERO lubricants such as magnesium stearate which actually blocks absorption of supplements by up to 80% and ZERO acrylic which coats tablets and some gel caps for ease of swallowing.

The third reason is cost. When you purchase a supplement there are a lot of people you pay. The farmer/manufacturer of the raw material, the companies who manufacture the product, the warehouse that distributes the products, the shop where you purchased the product - there are a lot of middle men in the production and distribution of supplements. In order to produce a cheap supplement a lot of corners are cut in quality, in order to produce a quality supplement there is usually a higher price to pay.

By compounding our own supplements we are able to eliminate most of the middle men resulting in high quality supplements at affordable prices.
