THE FUNCTIONAL HERBAL BLEND
The Functional Herbal Blend is a collaboration of The Functional Nurse and Tia Miers Naturopathy. The blend was formulated to support our patients in clinic suffering with inflammatory skin disorders.
After 10 years of treating skin in the industry, I struggled to find an internal health product that would support the skins functions for a vast range of skin conditions. We are predominantly treating acne, eczema, psoriasis and rosacea in clinic. All of these conditions are exacerbated by sluggish lymphatics, inflammation and poor liver health. With these conditions in mind we worked for over a year on research and development to formulate a powerful herbal blend that could be ingested daily and give relief to patients suffering with their skin.
The combination of herbs and nutrients support the bodies detoxification processes, assists wound healing, whilst contain anti-inflammatory, antifungal and antibacterial properties. This makes it a powerful treatment for most skin conditions.
Both Tia and I recommend incorporating the blend into your skin health journey under the guidance of your Health Care Practitioner.
