Services
Herbal Medicines
Customised herbal prescriptions combine organic, biodynamic, and wild-crafted plants tailored to individual health profiles. Treatments address both symptoms and underlying patterns through constitutional matching that considers medical history, psychoemotional state, and body type. This approach facilitates sustained healing by working in harmony with natural bodily processes while minimising adverse effects.
Diet & Gut Health
Personalised dietary plans integrate ancient healing traditions with contemporary microbiome research to address digestive disorders. Programmes consider ethical preferences, seasonal variations, and financial practicality while identifying optimal food choices and intolerances. The approach combines traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic dietary principles with modern scientific insights for comprehensive gut health improvement.
Psychoemotional Support
Trauma-informed therapy addresses stress, anxiety, and depression through a person-centred framework. Sessions create safe spaces for exploring emotional patterns while connecting mind-body relationships. The integrative approach combines compassion-focused techniques with nervous system regulation strategies to achieve lasting psychoemotional wellbeing and resilience.
Chronic Fatigue Treatment
Specialised programmes target chronic fatigue syndrome, burnout, and post-viral exhaustion through multi-system restoration. Treatments combine adaptogenic herbs, energy conservation techniques, and sleep optimisation strategies. The holistic approach addresses both physiological imbalances and psychoemotional factors contributing to fatigue while developing sustainable recovery pathways.
Digestive Disorders
Comprehensive treatment plans address IBS, food intolerances, and gut dysbiosis through dietary modification and herbal interventions. The approach identifies root causes including stress impacts and microbial imbalances while implementing targeted nutritional support. Programmes incorporate both immediate symptom relief and long-term digestive system restoration strategies.

Tim was great helping my daughter with her stomach problems. He spent ages getting to know her and although we didn't get to the bottom of the issue her problems were greatly improved. I would recommend Tim to anyone. First class service with lots of ideas for implementing. Would definitely go back.

Absolutely loved working with Tim! He was able to help me identify so much about myself and what was happening with my body that I've spent years trying to figure out. He's so attentive, an incredible listener and does so much more than just prescribing herbs! I would highly recommend Tim to anyone who's looking to improve their health or help with symptoms that just don't seem to go away!

I reached out to Tim at the end of 2020 to discuss some concerns that I had had with my emotional and physical health that other healthcare professionals hadn't managed to assist me much with. These issues had been ongoing for years, and luckily, I found Tim at the end of my tether. The attention to detail, dedication, kindness, compassion and mastery that he brings to his work is unlike any other healthcare professional I've worked with in the past. Working with Tim, I overcame a great deal of my ailments in a short period of time. It was so quick that I often had to be reminded of what I had

I would definitely recommend working with Tim. I had eczema all my life but the last few years it got so bad that i literally give up , but then i came across Tim. Before i reached out to Tim i tried so many different things to help my skin but nothing worked. Tim really helped me with my skin and gives up a lot of time to listen and support you. I have already recommended Tim to someone and will most definitely recommend him to other people. Thank you for helping me! :)

I would highly recommend working with Tim! I went to Tim with on-going acne that had bothered me for over 2 years and in just over 5 months of working with Tim it has almost entirely cleared up. His very thorough but gentle approach allows him to really get to know you and look at all aspects of life that could be affecting your health. Thank you!

Tim was highly recommended to me when I was burned out with work stress and looking for a herbalist to work with. I found Tims approach refreshingly thorough and methodical, looking at factors in my lifestyle and diet I hadnt considered. It really comes across that he genuinely cares about his clients and puts a lot of thought and effort into his work. I definitely got far more out of working with Tim than had expected and have recommended him to a number of close friends.
