Hello, my name is Gabriella

This column is my opportunity to share with you my passion for Herbs

I would like to tell you about myself and talk about the myriad of ways in which herbs can be used to enhance our lives

I have always had a deep interest in science, in particular medicine and while researching into the history of medicine I came to the practice of herbalism

Here I discovered the wealth of knowledge that had accumulated over centuries and that herbalism is a thriving and dynamic tradition that has moved with the times

Realising that herbalism would give me the opportunity to combine my scientific studies with my love of nature I enrolled at the National Institute of Medical Herbalists where I studied medical herbalism for four year, gaining my diploma in Phytotherapy in 2003

Since then I have been running a clinic in the heart of the Chilterns and now I am delighted to be able to be writing to you on the Justuk.net web site
