How do we know detoxification is necessary?

Often the body will be telling us, in the form of certain symptoms, that it is working under a heavy load of waste products.

The systems most commonly affected by excess toxicity are the nervous system and the immune system. Signs such as fatigue, headaches, poor concentration, irritability, depression, acid reflux, joint inflammation and stiffness, unexplained weigh gain and recurrent inflammation are common.

The best way to detoxify your system is with the use of certain group of herbs combined in a form of tea(cleansing tea).
At the same time as taking the herbs, it is important to keep the diet clean and light.
It is vital to drink plenty of water throughout the process of detoxification. To a glass jug of water add some lemon and herbs like mint or lemon- balm.

You probably wonder, what to expect when you visit a herbalist for the first time???
Well, when you visit a herbalist for the first time you will have a consultation that takes 45 min to an hour. In this interview I will try to learn more about you, your lifestyle, diet and any medication or supplements you take. We will discuss what it is you want help with and also what you are hoping to achieve from this visit. I use a holistic approach to illnesses, treating the underlying causes of a condition than the symptoms alone. My physical diagnosis will be based on determining the client's constitution, palpation, pulse, tongue and observation. I suggest dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, recommend herbal supplements, and I will formulate a treatment plan, using whichever herbs and preparation to suit your individual need to support healing and balance.
