Humankind’s
oldest medicine is the best place to start.
Herbs can help the mind, body and soul.
Herbal
medicine offers great benefits – especially for women and children.
Herbalism is the oldest known form of healing. But did you know that a
consultation with a herbalist will give you more than a treatment made
from herbs?
Registered medical herbalist Joanne Kench knows that emotions, stress
and grief are sometimes at the root of physical symptoms. Working with
the mind, body and soul of a client, she will focus on finding the
cause of a complaint. For this reason, during an initial consultation
the client does a lot of talking, and Joanne a lot of listening.
A mother herself, Joanne is passionate about working with women and
children. Using herbs she can treat many health issues associated with
breastfeeding, postnatal depression, pre-conception (for both partners)
and menopausal problems. In fact, the biggest percentage of women she
sees have menopausal problems, and she has had 100% success treating
symptoms such as night sweats, hot flushes, palpitations, low libido,
dryness and anxiety.
Joanne believes that education is the key to health and healing, and
aims for her clients to leave a consultation not only better informed
about their health issue, but with greater self-knowledge.
Her training included orthodox diagnostic techniques, so Joanne always
knows when it is appropriate to refer someone to a GP. “Some clients,”
she says, “only come to me because the medical establishment has run
out of answers for them – but I believe that herbal medicine is the
place to start.”
Growing up with Herbal Medicine
Children manifest stress in the form of recurrent
coughs and colds, bed wetting, … and sometimes just being noisy!
Getting to the cause of the stress is a fundamental part of the
consultation process.
Children react remarkably fast to herbal medicines, and I find my
‘smaller’ clients can tolerate the taste of the medicine with less fuss
than some of my ‘grown up’ clients.
Teething and colic in babyhood through to skin,behaviour and menstrual
problems in puberty
Lack of appetite/energy
Sleep problems
Depression and negative feelings
Tantrums/Hyperactivity
Allergies
Eczema NIGHTMARES
Asthma
Menstrual difficulties
Individual needs of your child
A mother herself, Joanne is passionate about working with children.
They are all special and magical in their own unique way. The herbs
work differently with children because they are still open to the
wonders of nature and the universe
Childhood is full of new experiences and challenges,- difficulties do
arise and that is where …..
Joanne believes that education is the key to health and healing.
Dietary changes must always be gentle so that there can be compliance,
which result in good eating habits which will last a lifetime and
create good health awareness.
