My Story

Welcome! My name is Margaret O’Brien, I am a licensed Master Medical Herbalist. I offer consultations in herbal medicine, iris analysis (iridology) a non-invasive assessment tool, nutrition, dietary and lifestyle advice, and natural techniques. Herbal medicine is safe, gentle and effective and can benefit people of all ages. It has been used worldwide for centuries and we have a great tradition of herbalism in this country. Herbal medicine can be used to help alleviate symptoms of a wide range of health conditions, I take a complementary, natural and holistic approach to health care. The aim is to restore balance to the body, by gently supporting, cleansing and nourishing using herbs, dietary and lifestyle changes. Unique herbal formulae are created by me for each person.
I practise in Evergreen Healthfoods, An Fuarán, Moycullen, Co. Galway.

I love nature and the environment, and enjoy observing and identifying herbs and plants in the wild. I also grow herbs in my garden. I present an introductory course on herbalism, food fermentation and nutrition on the Short Course Series, in the Centre for Adult Learning and Professional Development, NUI Galway.
