Sue Hardman: M. 07747 000 591 Email: sue@suehardman.com
About Sue: After many years working in education and the corporate world in science and marketing roles, I decided to pursue what has been my life long passion and interest in natural and alternative approaches to health, healing and wellbeing. I retrained and qualified as a Herbalist and Naturopath at the College of Naturopathic Medicine in London. The approach I use in my herbal medicine practise incorporates researched, validated herbal medicine in conjunction with a traditional Ayurvedic approach as used in India for thousands of years. I like to use a balance of what is both modern and traditional, scientific and spiritual to help people. I use a natural approach to optimising my own health and wellbeing which I believe was also instrumental in enabling me to fall pregnant easily at 40. I keep my family healthy through diet and lifestyle and treat them with natural medicine.
Qualifications: Bachelor of Science, Diploma in Naturopathy, Diploma in Herbal Medicine.

About Louise: I became an Acupuncturist after seeing my daughter recover from migraines with acupuncture treatment: I had chosen to bring up my children in the most natural way I could. Here was a medical model that I knew little about but with such a rich history. I had to find out more and found myself hooked and completing the training! I now like to treat women at the start of their children’s life, from conception to childhood, to maintain both mother and child in the best of health and well being. I am committed to providing high quality, professional and integrated treatment to all of my clients. I believe an important component of my role is to teach, inform and give you the skills to help yourself. My practice is caring and friendly, tailored to you. This is your time, I treat you as I would like to be treated and I view working with you as a health partnership.
