As a nurse I’ve worked with many medications with varying results, and though there is a time and place for the allopathic system, it’s not always the best option. Did you know one course of antibiotics can disrupt the gut microbiome for up to 2 years? I want to move away from the rigid allopathic system which dominates the Western World and instead educate and empower people to take care of their own health.
I believe in proactive rather than reactive health and rather than treating the symptoms of disease, I prefer to focus on the root cause. The principle that our bodies can heal itself with a change in lifestyle and mindset is what 'self' care should be. I am passionate about essential oils as they can be used to treat the whole person, body, mind and spirit. Unlike conventional medicine, which pushes drugs to eradicate a particular disease process, the oils may have a specific action on a disease but will also support and strengthen the body to throw off the disease. Tea tree for example will have a direct anti-viral effect on the common cold virus but will also act as an immune-stimulant, encouraging the body itself to fight the infection.
We lovingly hand-make every product in small batches, we never test on animals, only on ourselves, our friends and our children!.. so we known that the products work. After years of testing and tweaking, Holistic Nurse UK was born.
