Denise Owens

I am a fully qualified Medical Herbalist working from Peebles and Galashiels in the Scottish Borders.

My herbal medicine degree is from Napier University in Edinburgh and I set up in practice in 2008 when I graduated.

My approach to patient care and treatment is to work with you, the patient, to move towards the best possible health that you can achieve. We begin with a one hour consultation which gives you time and space to tell your story in a safe and confidential environment and to fully explore your medical history. Then with the use of herbs, combined with lifestyle and dietary changes where appropriate, the healing changes can begin.

I am happy to see people with all types of health conditions and concerns.

Conditions that herbal medicine can help with include:

Anxiety and low mood, low energy and chronic/post-viral fatigue

Difficulties and challenges with menopause and other hormonal conditions, including PMS, PCOS, endometriosis and painful periods.

Insomnia

Digestive disorders, ie indigestion, colitis, IBS etc.

Cardiovascular problems including high blood pressure and angina.

I am particularly interested in the impact that stress, anxiety and other emotional states have on the overall health and wellbeing of a person. and addressing this within any treatment plan. So with this in mind, through the consultation process, we can build up a complete and in depth picture of your health, often over several visits. This ensures that all aspects of your health are covered in any treatment plan.

If you are wondering whether herbal medicine can help you, I am more than happy to have an initial chat on the telephone or drop me an e mail and I'll get back to you.

I now offer remote consultations by Zoom, Skype or Face Time and also over the telephone.
