Healing with nature's pharmacy
Herbal Medicine
Herbs supply us with a rich bounty of vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and other phytonutrients in a way that our bodies know how to absorb and utilise. They act to restore balance to the body, to normalise and heal and remove blockages that impede healthy functioning.
There are many different styles of Herbal Medicine in the world and many different ways of practising it. Sally is a Naturopathic Herbalist, that is she practises Herbal Medicine as taught by Dorothy Hall, one of Australia's leading and most experienced herbalists. As with most Western Herbal Medicine only plant based medicines are used, and liquid medicines are preferred as they are easier for your body to absorb and assimilate.
There are a couple of distinct distinct important features of this style of Herbal Medicine:
1) Dorothy Hall recognised that many herbs have "person pictures" so in a consultation Sally carefully select herbs to match your person picture, ie to suit you, your personality, your circumstances, not just your symptoms.
2) The careful herb/person matching means that the herbal medicine can be taken in much smaller amounts ie 10 - 20 drops taken in water three times a day as opposed to 5 - 7mls (or more) swallowed straight three times a day. Much easier to take!
Yarrow: (2007 - front garden) one of Sally's favourite herbs and a herb well known for its astringent, hypotensive and diaphoretic properties. Yarrow, as taught by Dorothy Hall, is also a wonderfully supportive herb, useful for when you need to "soldier on", when you feel the need of some support. Dorothy writes of it in The Book of Herbs (pub. 1972 Angus & Robertson) "It seems to me to typify the silent strength possessed by herbs in the healing of many ills, pulling the warmth of the sun and welcome rain down into the soil to change by Nature's alchemy into natural minerals, vitamins and oils in the service of man."
Flower Essences
Sally uses Bach Flower Essences and Australian Bush Flower Essences in her practice. They are powerful catalysts which unlock negative belief patterns that are holding you back from realising your full potential.
Tissue Salts
Tissue salts are homoeopathically prepared micro doses of 12 essential minerals that are the building blocks of the body. They are found in the blood and inside cells and are indispensible for all body functions.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In your first consultation, your presenting problem is discussed and a detailed case history is taken. Most importantly, careful attention is paid to your individual emotional and circumstantial environments. Iridology is an important part of the assessment.
Then, according to your individual needs, Sally will formulate and dispense a liquid herbal medicine. Every person has a medicine that is made just for them, no two people are the same so no two people ever receive the same mixture.
The dose of this medicine is only small, usually only 10-20 drops in water, to be taken three times a day.
Sally will also incorporate flower essences and possibly tissue salts.
Iridology
Iridology is the practice of studying the iris of the eye to understand what is happening in the body. The iris acts as a map of our bodies. It records and shows what is, and what has been happening in our bodies.
Sally uses it at the end of a consultation to fine tune your treatment programme. It helps her with her selection of herbs for you and it confirms what she has already learnt about your health and can pick up problems that she might not otherwise be aware of.
Nutrition
You will find her nutritional approach fairly simple and not horribly restrictive. It is based on good old fashioned common sense, not extreme faddism.
Sally believes that for food to do us good we need to enjoy eating and preparing it and so doesn't prescribe extreme diets. Avoidance of over processed, additive laden foods is emphasised and a healthy intake of fresh vitamin and mineral rich foods encouraged.
Sometimes for varying reasons, nutritional supplements are needed, but they are carefully selected just for you, again taking into account your individual needs and circumstances.

ENAR Therapy
ENAR is a small, battery operated, hand held device which is applied to the skin. It alleviates pain, restores function & prompts the body to heal itself. Sally is a qualified ENAR therapist and uses the ENAR to help patients with acute or chronic pain. She also finds it a wonderful help for patients suffering with fatigue.

"I'd like to thank Sally very much for giving my normal life back. Her dedication and beliefs in natural remedies has helped treat me and make me a happier person to really enjoy life.....I had recently had my second baby who was challenging and had come away from an extremely demanding job, I felt I couldn't get through my days.....Thanks to Sally, I now lead a very healthy, happy and stress free life.
More importantly I was able to conceive my third child almost instantly when we decided the time was right......
I would never look elsewhere but to Sally for future treatment. I do not hesitate to recommend her to anyone."

".....after three months my daughter's eczema has improved remarkably. She has regained her confidence and exuberance and can't wait to get her shorts and short skirts on. This change in her demeanour has been a real blessing and a gift. Thank you Sally for all you've done."
J.M. - Author and LIfe Coach, Beverly Hills
"I truly felt miserable, and most of the tablets I'd been taking did very little.....I was sceptical..... I did stick to the treatment ..one day I realised a bout of hayfever was rare and colds even more so. Amazing. I'm so truly glad I found you Sally. Many, many thanks."
R.L. Teacher, Newtown
"I came to see Sally after battling with health issues such as bowel and sleep disorders, for over 2 years. I had spent a small fortune on doctors and specialists with not much improvement to my wellbeing. Since I have been is Sally's professional care, my health has very much improved. Thank you Sally for giving me my health back!"
