Julia Brosnan, Adv. Dip. 
Western Medical Herbalist

After experiencing severe hyperthyroidism postpartum, I have a first hand experience of the struggles that come with thyroid imbalances. Through herbs and specific nutrient supplements, I was able to overcome the condition and regain control over my health, without using any medications that had been prescribed. In fact, 6 months later, the endocrinologist didn't believe that I had not used one drug to get it under control!

​

Now in the midst of perimenopause, I have a deep understanding of the challenges of this phase of life, and the massive impact menopause has on the thyroid - it needs far more support. It is imperative that the body has nourishment from the right foods, herbs and essential nutrients so that the changes of menopause are easier to navigate.

Whilst some women prefer to use HRT to manage symptoms, I prefer to see if the natural way can support me first. Why prolong the duration of what is a very natural process for the body to go through - coming off HRT later on in an older body that needs even more nutrients to manage the ageing process, will ultimately make the journey longer and harder, and with complications or side effects that come with most drugs.

​

With customised packages that include biomarker testing, I can help you optimise your thyroid health, and facilitate a smoother menopause journey. Contact me today to learn more about how we can achieve this.

Julia is a wonderful and gifted herbalist. Huge thanks for all of the treatments and help you have given me over this time. - Gaynor B.

​

I worked with Julia for 18 months - 2 years (I think). I came to her with hand rash and also hypoglycemic. The first thing she did was put me on herbs to support my thyroid which went a long way to sorting out some of my other issues. We did a few protocols and a lot of thyroid and adrenal work and I am now happy to say I have more energy, less tired and have also lost a stone in weight which I was struggling with. Can't recommend her enough. The font of all knowledge! Thank you Julia. - Becky S.

​

Honestly wish I'd found you sooner. Thank you. - Charlene C.

​

I'm much more settled in my spirit. I am strong. Thanks again. - Sharon M.

​

It is going well, Thank You. Slowly incorporating everything into my routine, I am enjoying the process and can feel a difference already. - Frieda S.
