"The whole is greater than
the sum of its parts"
Holistic medicine
Medical herbalists treat the 'whole person'. As well as your diet, lifestyle, sleep habits and medical history, we talk about your hobbies, relationships, what you do for fun and what makes you tick. We also assess your individual constitution and prescribe herbs accordingly.

Plants as medicine
Herbal medicine believes in using nature to heal nature. The human body has an intrinsic intelligence and ability to heal itself, given the right conditions are present for recovery. Herbal treatment begins with the plants we eat as food, aiming to correct nutritional deficiencies as a first priority.
The herbs themselves, prescribed as tinctures, teas or powders, contain an enormous array of chemicals that work together to subtly nudge human physiology towards self-correction, and promote good health.
TESTIMONIALS
Katya Beardsell (2022)
Poppy has been a fantastic support along my health journey! After struggling to feel listened to and taken seriously by various doctors after experiencing an array of symptoms following coming off the pill, working with Poppy was a huge breath of fresh air that I was seriously in need of. She always made me feel like what I was experiencing was valid and I felt like she was on my side working with me to improve my health and wellbeing every step of the way.
