To Support Hormonal Balance, Digestive Health, Women’s Health, Stress & Fatigue
Appointments in York, South Cave & Virtually.
A thoughtful, evidence-informed approach to health, combining herbal medicine with nutritional and lifestyle support to help you understand and support your body at a deeper level.
Herbal Medicine focuses on identifying underlying imbalances rather than simply managing symptoms, supporting long-term health, resilience, and wellbeing.
What Herbal Medicine Can Offer
Herbal Medicine, or phytotherapy, uses plant-based medicines to support the body’s natural healing processes.
Prescriptions are tailored specifically to you, taking into account your health history, symptoms, and lifestyle.
Alongside the herbs, Georgina’s recommendations will include personalised nutritional guidance designed to nourish and restore balance.
This is not about restrictive dieting, but about understanding what your body needs to function well.
Herbal medicine may support:
Hormonal balance
Digestive health
Stress and fatigue
Immune function
Skin conditions
Women’s health concerns
Blood sugar balance
Inflammation reduction
Gut Microbiome Testing
Your gut plays a central role in your overall health—from digestion to immunity, hormones, and even mood.
Partnering with York based company GutMapDx, Georgina offers advanced gut microbiome testing, helping to identify imbalances in gut bacteria and digestive function. This allows for a highly targeted and personalised treatment plan.
Testing can provide insight into:
Gut bacteria balance
Digestive efficiency
Inflammation markers
Food sensitivities
Links to symptoms such as bloating, IBS, fatigue, and skin issues

Appointments
Appointments are suitable for anyone seeking a natural, personalised approach to their health. Children under 16 need to be accompanied by their parents.
Initial consultations include a full health assessment and, where appropriate, discussion of testing options such as gut microbiome analysis.
Following this, Georgina will prepare a treatment plan and prescription and dispense your herbs, which may be in the form of personalised tea or tincture blends, or capsules, and external preparations as appropriate.
Herbs are either home grown, sustainably wild crafted, or purchased from trusted, UK based suppliers.
At Wolds Holistic Health, we support the body as a whole — looking beyond isolated symptoms to understand the bigger picture of your health and wellbeing.
