FAQs

If you’re feeling the effects of frequent flying, it’s natural to have questions. For many people, this is the first time discovering that there are gentle, natural ways to support the body through the challenges of life in the air.

Below, we’ve answered some of the most common questions to help you better understand how naturopathic herbal medicine works—and how it can help you continue doing what you love whilst supporting your body.
Can herbal medicine really help with the effects of flying?
Yes. Herbal medicine works by supporting your body’s natural systems—helping to restore balance to sleep, digestion, and the nervous system, all of which are disrupted by frequent flying.
How long does it take to see results?
Many people begin to notice improvements within a few weeks, particularly in sleep and digestion. Deeper healing may take longer depending on your individual situation.
Do I need to stop flying?
Not at all. Our goal is to help you continue doing what you love—whilst supporting your body so it can cope and recover more effectively.
Are the herbal treatments safe?
Yes. All prescriptions are carefully tailored to you, taking into account your health history, lifestyle, and any medications.
Do I need to attend in person?
In-person consultations are preferred, but remote consultations are absolutely available and effective.
Do your herbal tinctures contain alcohol, and are they safe if I operate machinery or fly aircraft?
We understand that for many of our clients—particularly pilots, cabin crew, and those operating machinery—alcohol content is an important consideration. While many traditional herbal tinctures are made using alcohol, we are able to prepare your prescription as a glycerite, a plant-based extract made using vegetable glycerine instead of alcohol.

This means your herbal treatment can be completely alcohol-free, making it suitable for those who need to avoid alcohol for professional, safety, or personal reasons. We will always tailor your prescription to your individual circumstances, so you can feel confident and supported whilst continuing to do what you love.
