What can herbal medicine treat?

Herbal medicine can treat almost any condition that patients might take to their doctor. Common complaints seen by herbalists include digestive disorders such as peptic ulcers, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome and indigestion and skin problems such as psoriasis, acne and eczema. Premenstrual syndrome and menopausal problems may be responsive to herbal treatment. Herbalists frequently care for patients suffering from arthritis, insomnia, stress, migraine and headaches, and allergic problems such as hay fever and asthma. Qualified herbalists know when a condition is best seen by a doctor or another therapist.

I have particular interest and experience in treating digestive/gastrointestinal problems and symptoms of stress and depression such as insomnia and panic attacks.
