Operation stopped
I have an underactive thyroid and was told I needed an operation to have it removed. I went to see Sarah after many months of trying different types of treatment - I didn't like the steroids that I’d tried, and I’d tried homoeopathy and Chinese herbs. Nothing had worked. Sarah was my last roll of the dice before surgery.
I told her she had one chance. I had two months before my pre-op to have a complete thyroidectomy.
I saw her for a consultation and she gave me a very interesting report about my health and was able to identify what my body needed. She made some herbs up for me from her dispensary. I started them the day they arrived. I didn't notice anything for the first week or so but then I noticed I was feeling less tired and had more energy. I felt less depressed. My hair started to grow again. My weight stabilised. My face lost its ‘puffy’ look and my muscles stopped hurting so much.
I went for my pre-op and the Nurse asked me what I was doing there. There was nothing wrong with my thyroid gland and sent me home. I was thrilled! No operation is needed and my thyroid has completely healed! I can't recommend Sarah enough! KW, Oxford
I was very grateful to have found Sarah. Our sessions were very open and relaxed thanks to Sarah’s warm and friendly manner, and her knowledge and intuition are impressive....My treatment was spot on and helped restore me to health very quickly. I can’t recommend Sarah highly enough! ST
Sarah is highly intuitive, and equally sensible/pragmatic. Her concoction for me worked wonders 👍 HW
Sleep Issues
I contacted Oxford Herbal to find support with sleep and stress issues. I was so glad to come across Sarah’s website as I had found it hard to find a herbalist outside of Ireland. Sarah was incredibly kind and attentive during my appointment, asking lots of questions to really scope my issues. I was super impressed with how quickly the remedies arrived, all labelled and presented in such a professional way. After a few weeks of following Sarah’s recommendations, I really felt difference in my wellbeing & it helped me back to being myself. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone who is willing to try alternative health solutions, she is an amazing find. Thanks Sarah! SC
“As a GP, I’ve seen countless patients with chronic conditions that conventional medicine struggles to resolve—and I was one of them.”
Years of misdiagnosis and persistent symptoms left me exhausted and disillusioned. Turning to Sarah was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health.
Sarah is an exceptionally warm, empathetic, and clinically sharp practitioner. Her iridology assessment and herbal protocol were thorough, thoughtful, and deeply personalised. Unlike the rushed pace of mainstream care, Sarah took time to truly listen and understand the full picture of my health—physically, emotionally, and systemically.
The herbal treatment plan she created was not only effective, it addressed the root cause of my issues. I experienced significant improvements where conventional treatments had failed. Her ability to blend scientific knowledge with the wisdom of nature is rare—and incredibly effective.
I now regularly recommend Sarah to patients looking for a more intelligent, natural, and lasting approach to their health. Her work is nothing short of transformative. DT, Oxon
Food intolerances - gone
Sarah’s astute reading of my eyes, articulated in her iridology report was so profound that I felt amazed and touched that a practitioner could see me so clearly and deeply. The health struggles and vulnerabilities were all fully picked up alongside the deep psychological and environmental reasons for them- dating back to my childhood conflicts with my mother and present day lack of male love and a propensity to over-give to others and crash. This report has been read by me on several occasions as a reminder of holistic balance and where I can shift my focus for the good of greater physical and mental health.
As well as this, Sarah gave me extensive advice and knowledge on the best diet for me as an individual, taking my dietary preferences into account. She also recommended natural remedies that will help support my whole system, in particular the health vulnerabilities noted and the fall-out from over- extending myself in all areas of my life.
With a calm, curious, professional and empathetic manner I would highly recommend Sarah as an Iridologist as well as for nutrition advice and all round systemic support!” CP, Oxon
I was a GP who had used topical steroids for over 25 years.
When I entered full-blown TSW (Topical Steroid Withdrawal), my entire system collapsed—my skin was inflamed, my nervous system was in pieces, and emotionally I was broken. I felt completely failed by the system I had been part of for so long.”
At the time, I was working with a homeopath to support fertility. But I began to see that my body was overloaded—clogged with decades of steroid residue. Until I cleared it, no true healing could happen. I knew I needed a different kind of care.
I also saw a dermatologist in the U.S. who told me it could take eight years for the steroids to fully leave my body.
Then I found Sarah.
We had many conversations—me, Sarah, and the homeopath—who both offered the emotional reassurance I needed to begin. Sarah’s approach was both grounded and intuitive. She created a precise, gentle herbal protocol to support my liver, skin, and nervous system without overwhelming me. She saw what I needed physically, but also held space for what I was carrying emotionally.
Over 18 months, my body transformed. My skin healed. My energy returned. I felt alive again. The process wasn’t easy, but it was real healing. And now? My skin is like a baby’s. For the first time in my life, I can wear summer dresses and feel proud of the body I’m in.
I will never prescribe topical steroids again. Sarah’s care has changed not only my health, but my entire view of medicine. She is a rare kind of practitioner—wise, compassionate, clinically astute, and truly committed to healing at the root. CB, London
A Mother’s Words: Gut Healing and a Life Changed
“My daughter has struggled with gut issues her entire life and has always had to follow a very restrictive diet.”
We tried so many approaches, but nothing brought lasting change—until we saw Sarah. Through her deep understanding of the gut and her personalised herbal support, Sarah helped to heal the root of the problem.
For the first time ever, my daughter was able to eat a piece of her own birthday cake without pain or fear. That moment meant everything to us. Sarah has not only healed her gut—she’s changed her life. KKC, Oxford
Adrian’s Journey: From Stuck to Steady
“I came to Sarah feeling trapped—physically, mentally, and emotionally. Years of anxiety, gallstones, digestive issues, and low mood had left me exhausted and withdrawn.”
Sarah took the time to understand not just my symptoms but the deeper story beneath them. Her herbal prescription was thoughtful and precise, and it didn’t take long before the shifts started: my digestion improved, my skin cleared, my energy lifted, and I started to feel more in control.
With Sarah’s support, I’ve begun reducing my SSRI medication and feel clearer and more resilient than I have in years. Even my agoraphobia is easing, gently. Her work is powerful, compassionate, and rooted in a wisdom that most practitioners miss. AL, Oxon
Rosa – Nervous Exhaustion, Gut & Liver Support
“I was constantly busy, but underneath, I was running on empty.”
Sarah quickly identified what my body truly needed. Her calming liver and gut protocol, combined with gentle emotional support, gave me back my energy and sense of calm. I’m no longer running on fumes—I feel nourished and steady again. RS, Northampton
Elaine – Psoriatic Arthritis
“My joints were painful, swollen, and stiff. I was close to giving up work.”
Sarah’s herbal prescriptions reduced my pain and brought the inflammation down when nothing else had worked. Her iridology insight and ongoing support helped me understand my body in a completely new way. I now move more freely and feel far more resilient. ET, London
Margaret – Falls, Oedema, Lymphatic Issues, Grief
“After several falls and years of swelling and fear, I was ready to give up. Sarah helped me rebuild.”
Her herbs gently supported my circulation, balance, and lymphatic system, while her emotional care helped me process deep grief. I now feel lighter on every level—and safer in my body. MG, Harlow
Jean – Unsteadiness and balance issues
“I hadn’t had a fall, but I felt heavy, stuck, and out of sync with my body.”
Sarah recognised my constitution and terrain straight away. Her lymphatic and warming support shifted things quickly. My energy lifted, the fog cleared, and I finally feel like my body is working with me, not against me. JY, York
Sophie – Anxiety & Emotional Overwhelm
“I came to Sarah in a constant state of anxiety—teary, tense, and overwhelmed by even the smallest things.”
From our first conversation, I felt seen. Sarah’s iridology report reflected exactly what I was feeling inside—nervous depletion, emotional over-giving, and deep fatigue. Her herbs were gentle and grounding, and within weeks, the panic eased, my breathing deepened, and I began to feel emotionally steady for the first time in years. Sarah’s work goes beyond the physical—she helped me find myself again.
Claire – Chronic Stress & Burnout
“After years of pushing through stress, my body finally said no.”
I was exhausted, wired but tired, constantly reacting to everything around me. Sarah listened without judgment and created a herbal plan that supported both my adrenal function and emotional resilience. I began sleeping better, thinking clearer, and feeling more in control of my responses. Her approach is rooted in deep clinical knowledge, but it’s the emotional insight and care that made the biggest difference. I feel balanced—for the first time in a long time.
Tom – Fatigue, Low Mood & Digestive Issues
“I wasn’t in crisis, but I wasn’t myself—and I didn’t know how to fix it.”
Low energy, poor sleep, gut issues, and a general flatness had become my normal. I came to Sarah unsure what to expect, but her iridology report was incredibly accurate—it reflected exactly how I’d been feeling without me having to explain it all. The herbs she gave me were simple but powerful. Within a few weeks, my digestion improved, my mood lifted, and I felt more like myself—clearer, steadier, and more resilient. Sarah’s approach is honest, intelligent, and deeply rooted in nature. It worked.
