Recent research highlights the therapeutic potential of myrrh in gut health. Scientists have discovered that myrrh can completely reverse inflammatory gut barrier damage caused by IL‑13, a key cytokine involved in ulcerative colitis. This finding is significant because it demonstrates a natural compound’s ability to restore intestinal cell function and support overall digestive health.

Inflammation in the gut often disrupts tight junctions, which are critical structures that maintain the barrier between intestinal cells. When these junctions are compromised, harmful substances can pass through, triggering immune responses, chronic inflammation, and digestive disorders. IL‑13 is a cytokine that contributes to this damage in conditions like ulcerative colitis.

Studies show that treatment with myrrh restores tight junction integrity in human intestinal cells, returning barrier function to normal levels. This repair reduces permeability, helps control inflammation, and strengthens the intestinal lining against further damage. Myrrh’s active compounds appear to regulate cellular signaling pathways, promoting healing while minimizing stress on the cells.

For families and individuals managing gut health, this research underscores the potential of natural interventions as complementary strategies. While medical supervision remains essential for inflammatory bowel conditions, myrrh offers a promising avenue for supporting intestinal repair and reducing chronic inflammation.

Sometimes, the body’s resilience can be supported through compounds found in nature. Myrrh demonstrates how ancient remedies can have measurable effects on modern health challenges, helping restore balance and strengthen digestive wellness.

Hello everyone! It has been a long time since I have posted anything. Life gets busy and time flies by without really noticing. On that note, I would like to let everyone know what has been keeping me busy...other than booking in as many massage appointments as I can during the week. (sorry no weekend appointments).

Most probably don't know, but for the past 6 years I have been receiving an education with the goal of getting a diploma of Clinical Herbalist. That goal is quickly getting close to fruition and I will be done mid December this year. Part of my course requirement is getting clinical hours. This is achieved by doing a client intake, then I would formulate herbal suggestions as well as supplements, diet and lifestyle for that person. For those who are interested in a herbal approach to their wellness and are wanting to find out what can be done you can book in with me on Tuesday or Thurday at 2:30pm to 3:00pm from now until June 19 and then again Tuesday or Thursday from July 3 to August 19 via the college's (Pacific Rim College) Jane app. with the following link:

Consultations are free and last 60 to 90 min, but there is a fee for the formulations if you decide to follow through with the suggestions. If you have any questions prior to booking, you can DM me. I understand that 2:30pm to 3:00pm on specific days, may not be an opportune time and if this doesn't work for you, we can arrange another time that does work for you.

I look forward to hearing from you and adding another form of support to your wellness journey.
