Napiers Lyme Clinic

<H2>A unique event for medical herbalists, naturopaths and medical practitioners to gain in-depth training into the herbal treatment of Lyme disease and its co-infections.</H2>
Lead speaker, clinical herbalist Julie McIntyre has specialised in Lyme disease for 15 years and helped around 10,000 people with Lyme. She brings a depth of experience and insight into the protocols, herbs, supplements and support treatments that have helped recovery, with a deep empathy for the plight of patients. Also speaking will be Dr Jack Lambert, an infectious disease specialist, on working with antibiotics and herbs, and Dr Armin Schwarzbach on understanding and interpreting test results. Organised by research herbalist Monica Wilde, this is also an excellent opportunity to meet other herbalists working in this area who are happy to share their experiences, and to join a cross-practice clinical trial to measure the outcomes for patients. We will cover herbs used in both North America and Europe.
Please note that this particular event is only suitable for certified practitioners and not for patients seeking to know more about Lyme disease. For more information about patient events please join the Facebook group /LymeDiseaseAlba

Will there be any assisted places?
We are extremely keen that rural herbalists who could not normally afford to attend training events do attend. These practitioners are often those working in the worst Lyme infected areas of the country. We have applied for funding to provide some grants to enable all herbalists with an interest in Lyme to attend. If you need financial assistance please contact us and explain, and we will try to help.
