  I have successfully used herbalism for over 40 years, but my experience at Martin Schoenbeck’s practice has been such a rewarding experience, that I felt compelled to write a review. I decided to use a student practitioner, with Martin being present to guide and give input, and the journey to improving my well-being following a Takosubo attack in December has been one of kindness and intuitive, insightful, care. My medication and teas have supported my healing and the expertise and compassionate care within which Martin, Rosie and Kerry have guided my recovery continues to be totally life changing.

  I have completed some of my herbal medicine clinical training with Martin and I would highly recommend him as a trainer. He is very conscientious and maximises the time I spend with him to get a rounded experience. Although Martin has a wealth of experience he is always learning and keeping up to date within the profession. Thank you Martin!

  I had the pleasure of a consultation with Mr Schoenbeck and a Heartwood undergraduate I have a number of medical issues Mr Schoenbeck and his trainee were able to identify and give really good advice and a number of herbal preparations to help manage my conditions Both Mr Schoenbeck and his trainee were very thorough in their evaluation of my conditions and especially impressed me by their knowledge of the herbal remedies they prescribed and any potential interaction with my other medications

  I cannot praise Martin highly enough. I have complete confidence in him. He listened, is very professional and has a great understanding of his craft. In the few weeks I have received his advice, tinctures and teas, I am feeling so much better and brighter. I am immensely grateful for his care.

  Immeasurable thanks to Martin for solving a long term ( but in my view a fairly minor) problem that had confounded the GPs. Key to this success is Martin's listening skills, empathy and patience all of which are given in the relaxing, non threatening environs of the aptly named Garden Clinic.

  Martin Schoenbeck's whole approach is amazing, his knowledge and expertise in herbal medicine is totally reassuring. We have had several appointments since January this year, firstly for my husband whole had a persistent troubling cough that literally nothing from the chemist would shift. Martin prepared a cough syrup and in two days the cough was gone, and my husband was feeling better. Myself, recently I contracted impetigo and again Martin's remedy of an amazing oil teatree and thyme healed everything in a matter of days. The second occasion, (again myself ) my sleep pattern. I've had a very busy work schedule lately and without enough sleep I'm hopeless! Martin has kindly sorted the whole problem by prescribing a liquid mixture which I take diluted and it's completely got my sleep pattern back on track! I will always seek Martin's advice in the future.

  I came to see Martin a couple of years ago after having a long bout of illness/ viruses constantly so I was hoping for some advice and something to help boost my immune system back into action. Martin was very thorough with his research into the issues I was having and through past issues I've had with my health . Martin made up a mixture of herbal medicine to help and advised on the right sort of vitamins to help try and get me to feeling back to normal. Within 3 months I was feeling like my normal self and still continued to see Martin for check ups each month and to see how I was getting on etc for about 6 months. Well it's nearly 2 years since and it was the best thing I did as I've felt better ever since . But I will definitely be back should I start to feel bad again xx thanks so much ! Xx

  Martin has found a solution for every problem I have brought to him. He has a wealth of knowledge and is able to create highly effective herbal remedies. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

  I have been seeing Martin on and off for a couple of years or so regarding a long standing digestion issue that caused me to feel bloated, run down and at times in significant pain. Having visited my GP on several occasions, only to be given generic advice such as avoid spicy foods and being given a packet of pills, only for the symptoms to return shortly after, I decided to investigate what herbal medicine could offer. After spending 45 minutes or so with Martin going through my health history and symptoms, Martin suspected that the cause of the issue could be an intolerance to yeast, but did note that unless a complete elimination diet was undertaken, it would be difficult to confirm with complete accuracy. The diagnosis certainly appeared to resonate with my body, and after following a course of herbal tinctures supported with acidophilus capsules, I noticed a substantial improvement in my condition. Importantly, I felt the treatment facilitated my body to recover and re-balance by itself, rather than mask the underlying cause of the problem, as was the approach of the NHS. I steadily gained greater levels of energy, which improved other areas of my life in a virtuous cycle. Two and half years on, my body feels far healthier, and is free of the symptoms for the large majority of time. I only take the herbal tincture after periods of intense stress and/or poor diet. I can thoroughly recommend Martin for his professional approach, I would recommend others to consider herbal treatments if, like me, modern medicine is not providing the desired results.
