Amazing

As an adult with ADHD, I was suffering from the side effects of prescribed medication. Ellen instead treated me with herbs and acupuncture and by 5 months, I began experiencing for the first time, prolonged focus over long periods while reading and writing. I also did not experience any side effects. Amazing!

Ellen has been a great help to me. I had taken some strong medication to treat my adenomyosis/endometriosis that made me menopausal for 6 months. I started taking her herbs and I got my period again. It was not painful and heavy as it used to be. My energy levels have increased tremendously. I find Ellen very inspiring and she gives me great advise on health and well-being, she has helped me both mentally and physically. I highly recommend Ellen to anyone who wants to improve their health and overall wellbeing. She is very dedicated and passionate about her work
