Paula Stone Medical Herbalist
Medicinal Herbs & Holistic Health
Hello, I’m Paula, a practicing medical herbalist of over 20+ years experience using naturopathic approaches and Iridology.
About Herbal Medicine
Herbalism is one of the oldest form of medicine. Organic or wild harvested herbs are full of a range of bio chemistry and nutrients, naturally trying to work with your body’s organs and processes.
I am very passionate about native wildflowers and herbs and grow a vast range in my secret wild garden.
I am keen for you to grow your own medicine chest or wild forage safely and sustainably, with respect for the environment.
I show ways on how to create your own medicine and nutrition to improve your own health, self healing and self care and how connecting with nature can enhance wellbeing.
Herbal medicine can address a wide range of physical and emotional problems. My approach is holistic. I aim to address the underlying causes of health conditions, not just the symptoms. Emotional and life challenges might manifest as physical health conditions. I’m proactive in that I aim to help you achieve a solution as quickly as possible.
Taking an Holistic Approach to Health
(See case study here link to index page) I can offer a wide range of therapeutic interventions including Hypnotherapy, Life coaching, NLP, Careers advice and much more. These can be part of the same consultation, if you wish.
The video below shows how I work with you to achieve your best wellbeing.
I offer online, telephone or face to face sessions at my rural clinic in Norfolk. Call 01953 788722 M: 07766 885631 or send a message here
I have extensive, specialist experience helping people with the following conditions.
Herbal remedies may help a range of conditions which may include insomnia, digestive issues, low moods, anxiety and more. Finding underlying causes for symptoms involves something of a detective approach.
“It is more important to know what sort of person has a disease than to know what sort of disease a person has” Hippocrates
First Medical Herbalist Consultation
Your first herbal medicine consultation provides time and space for you to tell your story, the specific issue and any medication you currently use. I will then use my technical knowledge and intuition to create an individualised herbal treatment plan for you. We look at your lifestyle. Holistically, we need to see if there’s any other underlying cause.
First consultations can take 90+ minutes. My fee is £50 for a first consultation and subsequent sessions.
I have extensive experience treating the following conditions
Stress, Anxiety & Mental Health
These can lead to physical symptoms like psoriasis, IBS, fatigue, or insomnia.
Along with herbs and naturopathic support, we can find coping strategies and address the root causes.
If you have PTSD, therapies like EMDR may also help.
Loss & Grief
Loss (health, job, bereavement) – Herbs can help with feelings of emptiness, anxiety, insomnia, and digestive issues.
Adaptogen herbs may also support your energy levels. Together, we can explore ways to find meaning and move forward. Research shows that having purpose improves well-being. This can be done individually or in a group
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS/ME)
There are herbs to support the changing symptoms of CFS/ME. Emotional & practical support can also help you manage the frustration of this condition
Low Self-esteem or Confidence
Can lead to low mood, anxiety and feelings of being stuck. There may be herbs to help support you whilst you find your strengths, interests, skills and qualities. This may enable you to use potential, by valuing yourself and accepting and being compassionate with who you are. Unpeel the layers to find your authentic self and what matters most to you. Find ways to explore your own daily meaningful activities and your confidence will grow to get to where you want to be.

“Paula has a vast wealth of knowledge and passion for all things herbal. We only skimmed the surface of this fascinating topic in one day but we did come away with an enthusiasm to find out more and to think about cleavers, dandelions & other ‘weeds’ in our gardens in a new light”
