The Herbal Advisor began as my radio program on World Radio Geneva in Switzerland for Ex-Pats and English speakers. The stories, the patients, the recommendations I made for countless concerns, became the foundation for Conscious Body Natural Medicine, a natural medicine practice of certified herbals, homeopathy and therapy. Since the start of this practice almost 40 years ago, thousands of clients with hundreds of different symptoms, illnesses and conditions have walked through my door seeking relief and resolution.
They found it and so their stories and my cases are documented, discussed and explained here for you. These articles and notes will provide you with some general guidance, ideas to try and true natural solutions that are being used daily Conscious Body Natural Medicine today.

This is what is commonly referred to as “andropause”. By understanding that they also have symptoms that need attention and conditions that require some natural remedies, they can continue to run like the wind and have the energy of a lion.
