Welcome to Avicenna Clinic

At Avicenna Clinic we treat acute, chronic and degenerative diseases in a natural, holistic way with safe, efficient herbal products as well as other proven alternative healthcare means. We tend to deal more with chronic, degenerative conditions that do not respond well to orthodox medicine drugs or conditions where these drugs cause unwanted side-effects.

The medical herbalist is a university-qualified healthcare professional. He is trained to interview patients, carry out physical examinations, diagnose ‘dis-ease’, prescribe and dispense remedies. He treats diseases for which patients usually see their doctor.

Some of the conditions we treat

  • Fatigue and weaknesses

  • High blood pressure

  • Anxiety and depressinve states

  • Migraine and headache

  • Flu like syndromes

  • Asthma and Bronchitis

  • Digestive ailments

  • Colon problems

  • Liver disorder

  • Male sexual and reproductive dysfunction

  • Female reproductive system illnesses

  • Urinary infections

Herbal medicine is:

  • Natural: Herbal medicine uses natural substances in the form of herbal products. At Avicenna Clinic its efficiency is even more enhanced with the use of other non orthodox therapies when a synergistic effect is more beneficial to our patients.

  • Holistic: Our body is seen as a terrain where disease is only a manifestation, a symptom of an inner imbalance. Therefore, to obtain relief or cure, holistic medicine aims to treat the human organism as a whole in order to restore the lost balance and so, the disease disappears.

  • Safe: Herbal substances are potent medicines just as synthetic drugs and need, for safety reasons to be prescribed by a medical herbalist. However, being the product of nature—just like the human being—they interact with our organism in symbiosis. Herbs are prescribed to work in co-operation with the body rather than to target specific symptoms, which reduces the risk of side effects.

  • Efficient: Herbs are a body of ‘life-full’ cells and the product of nature—just like human cells. This is why they influence human cells positively and so, help restore normal health, whether as food or as medicines. Many come to appreciate the power of correctly prescribed, natural herbal medicines dispensed by a highly trained medical professional.

  • Complementary: Medical herbalism can act in a synergistic way with pharmaceutical drugs, to reinforce them with natural substances or to alleviate their side-effects.

  • Alternative: Herbal medicine can be a viable alternative to synthetic drugs in many cases. For example, it is an effective alternative for people who have allergic and other adverse reaction to drug treatment. Some people who have arthritis may develop chronic gastrointestinal problems from taking non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS). There is a wide range of herbs that relieve pain but without causing damage to the digestive tract. People with mild depression take powerful drugs, but with side effects such as weight gain, loss of appetite, fatigue, emotional extremes, and loss of libido. Many medicinal plants have been researched and are known to relieve mild depression and to prevent many of these side effects.
We speak the following languages at the Clinc: English, Arabic and French. Our multi-lingual knowledge means that we source the best therapies in the herbal and medical cultures of the Anglo-saxon, Arab and francophone traditions, which enables us to tackle health disorders from a variety of angles, using synergistic therapies where needed.
