Who I am

Hello, I’m Alyssa, a qualified medical herbalist and member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalists (NIMH). I founded Tincture Herbal Consultation & Dispensary to provide safe, evidence-based herbal care for people who want a more natural approach to their health.

My Approach

I believe herbal medicine works best when it’s personalised. Every client I see has a unique health story — which is why I take time to understand your symptoms, lifestyle, and goals before creating your prescription. My role is to listen, support, and help you move towards better health with a clear, structured plan.

Why Herbal Medicine?

I was drawn to herbal medicine because it bridges science and tradition. Herbs have centuries of use behind them, and modern research is now confirming what practitioners have known for generations. I love combining the two — creating treatment plans that are both rooted in tradition and backed by evidence.
