Baby Gripe Tea

After discovering my 7 week old baby had being suffering from silent reflux for many weeks I started using Gaviscon. This worked initially but its effectiveness wore off then thankfully (I am much happier with a natural product) a naturopath put me onto ARTEMIS Baby Gripe tea. For the first week I tried to drink the tea 3-5 times a day and administer it to her when was in pain. When I gave it to her the relief was immediate as she would stop crying, settle and fall asleep. After a week we were no longer needing to give it to her and I was only needing to drink the tea 3 times a day. After 2 weeks we now have a happy, content, alert and interactive baby. The tea is a huge relief for our daughter and all of us around her. I don't usually enjoy herbal teas but the bonus about ARTEMIS tea is that it is delicious! A fabulous product! I am keen to try more of the Artemis range.

I am a mother of 5 month old girls one of which had been suffering bad reflux, I had tried a couple of other natural remedies but neither helped. I decided to give the ARTEMIS Baby Gripe Tea a go as I have always been a fan of their products. I am so glad I did as the first time I gave her the tea she did not have an attack and drunk the full bottle! I'm very grateful because it meant I did not have to put her on losec which I wanted to avoid at all costs!!
Mrs E Percy, Mt Maunganui
My 6 week old baby was very fussy, crying a lot. He's been on reflux medication since 10 days old and while this made a huge difference initially it didn't stop him entirely from being fussy. The first day I started taking the baby gripe tea, he went down for all his naps during the day with a lot less fuss and in the evening he was considerably more settled than he had been before. That first night he slept 7 hours - something he hadn't been doing since about a week old. We have now been drinking the tea for 10 days and he's averaging 8 hours sleep a night. I have been recommending this tea to everyone I can think of with a baby both here in NZ and overseas.
Rochelle, Invercargill
This lovely, fresh smelling ARTEMIS Baby Gripe Tea was not only tolerated well by my (very fussy) eight year old, but it stopped her painful tummy cramps almost immediately and the diarrhea within 12 hours. A trained medical herbalist myself, I know a good product when I find one. I'm just so glad that your product was readily available as (typically) my daughter got sick when we where away from home and my supplies! Thanks!

I started giving my baby ARTEMIS Baby Gripe Tea when he was about 2 months old. Kyran had reflux and I didn't want to give him medicines to help it unless I really had to. My friend Amanda is a Naturopath and recommended that I try the ARTEMIS tea. I gave Kyran the tea 3 times a day after nursing (approx 10mls each time). I noticed a difference after a couple of days and within the month I stopped giving the tea to him because he wasn't showing any signs of reflux!
I believe the ARTEMIS Baby Gripe Tea helped Kyran's body fix the problem itself without the use of drugs. I now have a contented, happy wee boy of 7 months and would highly recommend using this tea to help with reflux of any age.
To those who think preparing the tea is a hassle, what I did was make up the tea as per the instructions, and then I froze it in ice cube trays. Every time I needed to give Kyran the tea, I would put a cube in a little bit of boiling water in a bottle and give it to him after it had melted. No sweat!!

Breastfeeding Tea

As a midwife I am always on the lookout for natural ways to support women during pregnancy & while breastfeeding. ARTEMIS Teas are a fabulous product. We have had great success with the ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea particularly when trying to boost milk supply in tired, stressed mums. I am currently purchasing it for a new mum with 2 day old twins, to support her and her babies in the busy months ahead. It’s fabulous to have such a product on the market & a product of New Zealand too! Thanks heaps and keep up the good work ARTEMIS!
Vicky, M
I started using ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea two weeks ago because I was concerned my breast milk was not enough for my little girl. Being my third child I had tried other products before and found varying results but none has been as good as ARTEMIS. My milk increased after 3 days of use and I know my little girl is getting a more consistent amount during the day. She is feeding better and is sleeping longer because her tummy is full :) It’s a great product, would recommend it to any breastfeeding mum. I'd also like to mention that her colic has improved since using the tea and she is a lot more settled.
Tania Searle
We bought the ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea two months ago, and find it extraordinary for mum and baby. We had previously tried many medications (even for adult) for our baby's colic and reflux. A friend came over from Auckland with the Breastfeeding Tea and gave me some to try. As magic, a few days after our little angel stopped crying at night and since then no more colic at all. I now recommend to all friends here in Tahiti to try this tea.
Teiva Plenet, Taihiti
As a new mother I was concerned that my baby would receive enough breast milk for nourishment. I noticed that when drinking ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea my milk production was noticeably better and that my baby was burping herself more easily resulting in less digestive discomfort for her. I had used straight Fennel before but it did not achieve the same results. ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea is easy to make and use and I find it tastes delicious both hot and cold.
Deborah Jayes, Medical Herbalist, Tauranga
I had the opportunity to try the ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea, and WOW it really works. After two days I had a huge supply of milk. I have continued to drink a cup a day to keep my milk levels up and also really enjoyed the pleasant taste. Thank you ARTEMIS.
Camille Moore, Dunedin
I just wanted to let you know what fantastic results I've had with your new ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea. I had some problems establishing a settled milk supply and within one or two days of taking the tea I was over the moon! Not only did I have a great amount of milk, the baby was a LOT more settled and I could finally start eating like a normal person. My very many thanks for putting this product out for breastfeeding mums who don't have a lot of choice on what medicines they can take. Great taste too!

Cardio Care Tea

I used the Chest Relief Elixir, Immuno Boost Tea and Cardio Care Tea to fight off a rampant chest infection before I ran the Dunedin Half Moro Marathon and I thus managed to get a very good time. I also used the Tissue & Strain Repair Tincture for the last 6 weeks in my build up. All worked wonders. Now I head straight for the ARTEMIS range for any health concerns for myself and my customers.
Tracey Crosswell, Health Consultant, Dunedin
Since I am drinking the ARTEMIS Cardio Care Tea I find that I have more stamina during my busy day. While I was exercising I found to have more aerobic capacity during a long bike ride or long walk in that I was not as tired near the end and in fact felt much less tiredness than when I did not drink the Cardio Care Tea. Interestingly I found that the results were better if I drunk the ARTEMIS Cardio Care Tea the night before I did the exercising. My husband has confirmed the same experience.
Jan Clark, Massage Therapist, Hamilton

Digestive Ease Tea

I have to tell you how much I enjoy your teas! I had been having some digestive problems due to stress and the ARTEMIS Digestive Ease Tea has calmed and settled my stomach. I also use the ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea - well you know when - and it's also great! ARTEMIS Rest and Relax Tea is my little soothing night-cap. What a great way to end the day or anytime I feel stressed. I love them all!
Leslie Stager Jacques, Dunedin
This lovely, fresh smelling ARTEMIS Digestive Ease Tea was not only tolerated well by my (very fussy) eight year old, but it stopped her painful tummy cramps almost immediately and the diarrhea within 12 hours.

I'm just so glad that your product was readily available as (typically) my daughter got sick when we where away from home and my supplies! Thanks!
Sarah P
Having recently given birth I was prescribed antibiotics to clear a persistent infection. Unfortunately I was on them for a month and this caused havoc with my stomach, which affected my baby as I was breastfeeding. After a day on ARTEMIS Digestive Ease Tea my digestive system had completely calmed down and my baby stopped being so scratchy. I continue to take the tea, and so does my husband as the taste is delicious.
Happy Mother, NZ
I spoke to you on the phone while visiting Dunedin and would like to endorse your ARTEMIS Digestive Ease Tea. I have had an irritable bowel and digestive system for nearly 2 years and have tried several treatments including making changes to my diet (such as cutting out wheat products). I have been taking your ARTEMIS Digestive Ease Tea twice a day for about a week and I can't believe the relief! I feel so much better and can only assume it is the tea. Thank you so much, I would recommend this tea to anyone with stomach and digestive problems.

Tracey Crosswell, Health Consultant, Dunedin
Having been sick with the flu followed by nasty sinusitis, then a week later I had a sore throat just before my son's wedding, I drank a pot of ARTEMIS Immuno Boost Tea and woke up totally well (very grateful). Then following some late nights and a very lousy time, days later I woke with a sore throat and after another pot of ARTEMIS Immuno Boost Tea, was totally well after lunch and very happy. Amazing!
Fiona Greer (Registered Nurse)
ARTEMIS Immuno Boost Tea proves to be a popular tea at our cafe. People just love the taste and the effectiveness of it. We have regular customers who come to us because of this beneficial herbal tea. They tell us that when they drink it at the first signs of a cold, they manage to get rid of it straight away! The ARTEMIS Tea Range is also popular with people who love authentic, fresh tasting herbal teas, which are caffeine free.
ARC Cafe, Dunedin

Kidney Cleanse Tea

I brought the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea to help support the removal of Kidney Stones. Since having the tea, I have had no reoccurring pain from the stones at all.
Teresa, Nelson
After the peaceful home birth of my first daughter I had real difficulty initiating breastfeeding. After 3 days of no latching success at all (resulting in a hungry, dehydrated baby and one very stressed out mother!) a lactation consultant diagnosed an unusual level of fluid retention through my breasts which was causing a great deal of engorgement but not from milk! She prescribed your Kidney Cleanse Tea in conjunction with some lymphatic massage to shift the fluid. It worked! I breastfed my daughter until she was well past two! Thank you so much.
Rachel Pettigrew, Dunedin
Over the past years I have had an increasing problem with my bladder waking me up in the night. I had to go to the bathroom 3-4 times a night with the annoying consequence that I was unable to go back to sleep. I was getting more and more tired until I discovered ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea. I take 2-3 cups during the day and now I sleep through the night with my bladder not waking me up a single time. I am extremely happy about this and would like to thank you from my heart for your effective products which have improved the quality of my life significantly.
Jennifer, Dunedin
I have had problems with ongoing bladder infections for a couple of years. The antibiotics would clear the infection which would only come back shortly afterwards with a vengeance. It was a vicious cycle and I was getting very tired of it. After speaking with Sandra Clair she recommended me to take the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea 3 cups a day to start with, then 1-2 cups a day ongoing as a preventative once the infection had cleared. Not only has the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea helped me to completely get rid of my bladder infections, I have had no infection for over one year now. I am sold on the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea which is so simple to take as I need to drink anyhow for hydration and helps me to stay infection free. Thank you.
Yvonne S., Singapore
I have just finished the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea and I found it to be extremely helpful for my gout. After two weeks I found that I felt fresher and lighter (I am guessing its the effect of less toxins in the body), and most importantly my joints felt no longer stiff but loose and there was no gout attacks during that time.
Laurence Liew, Singapore
I have taken antibiotics regularly for recurrent kidney infections as I have a problem with reflux in the kidneys. However, after finishing a course of antibiotics a new infection would occur. Since drinking ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea I haven't had any infections for the past year. The stinging while urinating stopped and also the kidney pain.
P.Thevers, Alexandra
I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know what fantastic results I have had from using your Kidney Cleanse Tea. During the last 8 months I have had one kidney infection after the other. The antibiotics make me feel awful and the infection always comes right on back. As a single Mum of 3 girls I just can not afford to be 'under the weather' and the cost of doctors/scripts were huge. Six weeks ago I had yet another infection but this time I went to the health shop instead of the doctor. They sold me your tea and within 24 hours I felt an improvement. The ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea will be staying as part of my daily intake!! It is fantastic, thank you so very, very much for such a great product, I feel fantastic!
Sarah Davies
My wife is a kidney transplant patient for almost 7 years now and after trying the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea, her urea acid drop from 19 to 11 points. Creatine reduce from 338 to 280. There is a significant improvement in her health; me and my wife are very familiar with Kidney transplant.
Steven Wong, Singapore
Thank you Sandra for your wonderful ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea. I discovered it about 2 years ago and am now sold on it's benefits. I have had eczema outbreaks, of varying severity, most of my life. After drinking ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea daily for about a month my eczema disappeared. I now only have minor flare-ups when I've been remiss in drinking the Tea. Incidentally, it's a very pleasant drink. Thank you.
Jude Hamilton, Dunedin Herb Society
The administration manager I work with was an instant coffee addict but after me talking to her about your herbal teas she has cut the coffees at work and having your ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea and she also bought the ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea that she has at home. She is quite a different person. The only coffee she has is a real one once or twice a week and she is so much calmer. She used to get low blood sugar moments previously but that hasn't been happening since taking on herbal teas.
Jeannie H, Dunedin
A customer of organic evolution had been suffering with a very bad urinary tract infection. She had tried all sorts of different tablets that she could not tolerate because of the binders and fillers. She went onto the ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea and had immediate relief.

Liver Detox Tea

One of my clients has a number of health problems including a chronic viral infection. She used to wake up 3-4 times per night. She has been on a course of ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea (1 cup before breakfast) and ARTEMIS Kidney Cleanse Tea (1 cup after breakfast) and she is feeling much improved with only waking once a night now for going to the bathroom. She also mentioned that it cleared her 'morning fog'.
Eva Lee, Bowen practitioner, Tauranga
When I first started to drink ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea with the purpose of keeping good health, I found it very bitter and had to swallow it quickly. I knew then, that my liver was in need of support. I drink the Liver Detox Tea every day before breakfast as a cleanse and sometimes also during the day and I now love the taste and can drink it easily hot or cold. Interestingly, when I have a bigger than normal meal, rich food or a couple of drinks then the tea tastes bitter again indicating that my liver is overworked.
Anne Cubitt, Naturopath and Beauty Therapist
When I first started using the ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea, I could notice a difference within a few days. My body felt like it was cleaning out all the bad stuff - my skin got clearer and my digestion seemed better, I was also able to lose weight easier. If I go for a couple of weeks without it, I can notice the difference. I can definitely recommend this product!
Cath Broome, Christchurch
I use the ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea on a regular basis and find it very good. I notice a lift in my energy levels, I can literally feel the ARTEMIS tea working on my system. I would and do recommend to anyone looking to make a difference to their health to try the ARTEMIS teas.
Hamish Harcourt, The Herb Centre, Christchurch
I have every faith in ARTEMIS Therapeutic Herbal Teas and the Liver Detox Tea is generally the first product I think of when a customer needs liver support or cleansing. I know it will be a safe and effective form of treatment. I believe the fact that we sell so much of it is testimony to its effectiveness as a product.
Ailsa Rosa, Naturopath, True Foods Health Shop, Dunedin
Through recent surgery and the need to have taken a quantity of unnatural pain relief for quite some time I feel the need for a little liver care to be well overdue. I have discovered your herbal ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea and am pleased to say that after recent surgery and the overload effect this had on my system, this tea brought about great relief within just a short time. I now have a desire to get my internal system back on track and to try and keep it there.
Lester Baxter, Kaikoura
I have used the ARTEMIS range of teas many times in the past and have recommended them in my natural health clinic for clients with great success. During the early stages of my pregnancy the ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea blend was all I wanted to drink. It cured me of my morning sickness immediately after drinking it each morning. After 1 week of taking it at 4 cups/day the nausea had completely gone. I am still drinking it daily in my pregnancy, in place of my morning coffee and I have found it very beneficial for stimulating bowel motions when I have felt slightly constipated. Thanks ARTEMIS for making such wonderful and safe blends for pregnant Mum's!
R. Schliebs, Nutritionist and Herbalist, Auckland
A customer of Organic Evolution who has some liver problems. Consequently she cannot break down the tablets as they are fill of binders and fillers and make her sick. She has received exceptional benefits from the ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea and is very pleased as these seem to be the only medicine she can tolerate.

Menopause Tea

Last year, while going through the tail end of menopause as well as a stressful period in my life, I was looking for a natural way to calm and balance my system. I visited Jon’s Photo Pharmacy and settle on two varieties of ARTEMIS herbal tea – ARTEMIS Menopause Tea and ARTEMIS Rest and Relax Tea. I took ARTEMIS Menopause Tea in the afternoon at a time when I would normally be looking for a cup of coffee as a pick-me-up, and drunk a cup of ARTEMIS Rest and Relax about an hour before bedtime.

I believe they made a difference and helped me through that period. I also really enjoyed the aroma and taste of the two formulae, and the fact that you can practically see the goodness of the natural herbs in them. Thanks ARTEMIS! P.S. My Liver is currently in need of support so I have embarked on a regime which includes ARTEMIS Liver Detox Tea.
B Richards.
I am ringing to tell you how wonderful your ARTEMIS Menopause Tea is. I take it for hot flushes and usually after 3-4 days on the tea they are under control. As a bonus when I take a cup in the evening I have a good night sleep guaranteed.
Adrienne, Dunedin

PMT Ease Tea

I have been using ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea for the last month and am so pleased with the results so far. I have had less pms and after only 1 month! I will definitely be doing the recommended full 3 month course. I have had severe pms for years and already took hormone supporting herbs which had helped but this tea has achieved so much more in a small space of time. Roll on next month you no longer have power over me!
Carmen, Hamilton
Diagnosed as having developed a large uterine fibroid, I experienced many painful, heavy periods with abdominal tenderness and discomfort over the uterine area. Since regularly drinking ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea I have no pre-menstrual symptoms, my periods are lighter and pain-free and I no longer experience any uterine discomfort. I can wholeheartedly endorse this product and recommend it to any women with menstrual problems.
F.Bolgar, Dunedin
The ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea has given me back control over my monthly cycle. I was finding 1 - 2 weeks prior to my bleed I would feel pressured and like I couldn't think straight. By the week prior to my period I would find I'd be eating everything, not just sweet things but just more of all kinds of food. Once I started taking the ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea I found these symptoms faded until I noticed no difference in each week of my cycle. My husband jokes that I no longer throw Tupperware! The irritability and tenseness has all gone and it is very satisfying to know that through a gentle natural way the imbalance in my cycle has come back to a healthy balance. I have no hesitation in supporting Sandra with her products, she not only has provided very efficient natural remedies but the taste of the herbal teas far surpasses any caffeine and tannin free herbal teas I have ever found on the Supermarket or Health food shelves. I have used her products for over 4 years successfully and would recommend all women to try them. I will certainly continue to be a life long customer.
P. Leishman, Dunedin
I have a girlfriend who credits using your ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea with getting her cycle back on track after years of irregularity, and the conception of her first child. Your ARTEMIS PMT Ease Tea is currently my best friend. Thank you for your lovely teas.

Pregnancy Tea

I always introduce my clients to ARTEMIS Pregnancy Tea. They all really enjoy it as part of supporting a healthy pregnancy. I believe the ARTEMIS Pregnancy Tea is an integral part of the preparation for good labours and births that my clients tend to have.
Tracy Botica, Registered Midwife
Hi, I just wanted to say how much I love your products. I am pregnant with our first baby and I love the ARTEMIS Pregnancy Tea, it works wonders. It makes me feel so good and helps with a range of ailments. I have also been using the ARTEMIS St Johns Wort Oil from the beginning, its so lovely and so far no sign of stretch marks! Thank you for making such wonderful products. I also appreciate the packaging you use, as it is recyclable.

Repower

I recently purchased the new ARTEMIS Repower Tea because it is a green tea with a difference. I found myself thoroughly enjoying the flavours and often make a cup in the afternoon for a tasty pick-me-up. The spearmint adds a refreshing element and I always feel an energy boost.
I have recommended this new tea to family members who have also commented on the delicious taste!
TP, Auckland
I have been a heavy coffee drinker for the last 15 years drinking 6 plus cups a days. Since I switched to ARTEMIS Repower I have noticed that my energy levels are a lot more consistent throughout the day. Previously I found I would be on a high after having a coffee, but this would quickly subside. For sometime I had been looking for a natural drink that would give me a kick start with out all of the side effects and guess what? I've found it with ARTEMIS Repower

I have been using your ARTEMIS Rest & Relax Tea and have come to get my second container. I sleep much better and more soundly and if I wake in the night I can easily go back to sleep. Thanks heaps!
Sonya, Motueka
After the Christchurch earthquakes, I have used the ARTEMIS Rest & Relax Tea and found that it gave me the best night's sleep I have had in ages!! Thank you!
Eileen, Homestead Health, Christchurch
I brought the Rest and Relax tea for my 18 month old son. At 16 months, he stopped sleeping through the night and was waking up 2 to 3 hours into his sleep. I tried everything, including breastfeeding him to sleep. But nothing worked. After your talk, I realised that his nervous system was over-stimulated from being at daycare and he needed something to help him wind down. The first time he had it, he slept through the night. I continued using it for 4 weeks, and he is now down to having it twice a week. It has been a lifesaver and also ensures he gets the restorative deep sleep he needs to grow.
Denise Carter-Bennett
Artemis Rest and Relax is heaven sent. I've started giving it to my 2 and a half year old and he has stopped sleep walking basically the first night and is having lovely restful sleeps at night (12 hours last night!). In turn my husband and I also get a good nights sleep. Would recommend to all parents who need a little help getting their kids back into a good sleep routine. And it smells divine. Fantastic product! Thanks.
Donna Holley
A medical doctor in Timaru recommends ARTEMIS Rest and Relax Tea to her patients. She noted that the tea worked so efficiently that they required less sleep and pain medication when taking it. She was also delighted that a medicinal tea could taste so nice, as this increases patient compliance.
Forwarded from Golden Harvest, Timaru
I find your ARTEMIS Rest and Relax Tea excellent and it has changed my sleeping (or not sleeping!) And I am not so anxious anymore.
Jennifer Hamilton, Upper Hutt

Stress Relief Tea

I have been using the ARTEMIS Stress Relief Tea for the last 3 months with wonderful results. I have had ongoing depression for 16 years. I was initially nervous about trying this tea due to previous interactions between antidepressants and St John’s Wort. These interactions have had severe ongoing consequences for me. However I bit the bullet and gave it a try. I am currently still on some medication and am finding the addition of the tea has had a significant impact on my mood. I'm definitely a lot more upbeat and relaxed when having my few cups a day. I never thought a tea could have this much of an impact when I have tried so many other things!

From ARTEMIS: St John’s Wort in TEA form has been officially endorsed in the Commission E Monographs to have NO interactions with anti-depressants. Therefore, St John’s Wort in TEA form is safe to take alongside anti-depressants and we have many happy customers (as illustrated here) who take it safely and effectively alongside their medication.
C.H., Hamilton
I had trouble sleeping since I hit menopause but now that I drink ARTEMIS Stress Relief Tea, sleep is great again. Also, my husband is a carpenter and usually has sore limbs in the evening. I rub ARTEMIS St. John's Wort Oil into his sore body and it has been the only thing that gives him real relief.
M. Fitzgeralds, Dunedin
I like the way ARTEMIS Stress Relief Tea gently lifts my spirits, in a sunny kind of way (vital if you live in Dunedin!).

Arthro Ease Cream & Arthro Ease Tincture

For the past few months I've had fungal skin infections, mostly around the neck, below shoulders and on both thighs. Treatments prescribed by my doctor only made it worse so in desperation I went to see the local chemist, who wasn't able to offer anything else. So my next stop was Health 2000, where the assistant recommended your ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream. I couldn't believe what difference it made! They didn't have the ARTEMIS Itch Calm Tincture in stock, but it came in a week later. So now I'm using both your products and I am more than impressed! Thank you for these great products I would recommend your products anytime.

A lady came to our stall at the women's expo complaining about her arthritis. She had to use a walking stick as she had so much pain. We put her on the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream & Tincture. Five days later she came walking into our offices WITHOUT the walking stick and in a whole heap less pain. Now that is a real "walking testimonial"!
Reported to ARTEMIS from the Women's Expo 2010
I have been treating a cancer survivor who has developed arthritis post Chemotherapy. I prescribed her ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream and to her delight she experienced pain relief in her hands and feet within the first week. By week 2 she found some movement was returning to the 'stuck' areas of the small bones - grip had increased in her hands and her feet had started to free up, enabling her to wear small heeled shoes which she had been avoiding due to discomfort. She is now using the Arthro Ease Tincture as well.
Another lady had very painful arthritis in her A/C joint of the shoulder, which prevented her from caring for her large and well-loved garden. Her doctor prescribed heavy doses of Voltaren for pain relief, but she found it affected her stomach badly. She found the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream gave instant relief and continued over time has enabled her to reduce her Voltaren to very minimal doses, and sometimes she's able to go without it at all.
Josephine Anderson, Remedial Massage Therapist (MNZ)
I recommended ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream to a client that suffers from chronic pain and inflammation of her ankle due to arthritis. After a three week trial, I was pleased to see that her inflammation and pain had reduced, providing her with great relief!
Marie Jackson (Dip. Massage), The Dunedin Clinic of Professional Massage
I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and have been using the Artemis Arthro Ease Cream for approximately three years, as I find it so effective. I recently combined it with the Arthro Ease Tincture and found that the two work together so well. I have been able to reduce my medication significantly. I will continue with this combination and work towards complete removal of the medication. So good to find something that really works!
Lorraine McKenzie, Motueka
I have been suffering from a painful hip for the last 6 years brought about by 25 years of competitive Squash. This has been diagnosed as Osteoarthritis and likely to require a Hip replacement, something which I have been loathed to consider. A few months ago I discovered Artemis Arthro Ease Cream and have been applying it regularly throughout this time. I am pleased to say that my pain has reduced significantly and my flexibility increased, all during a time when I have been playing more and better Squash than I have at anytime in those 6 years! It is fair to say I am absolutely sold on this and others of the ARTEMIS range of products.
K. Aitcheson, Dunedin
I have arthritis in my wrists and since I have tried the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Tincture it has helped a lot. I now am able to do my normal housework. I have talked to the Arthritis Society about how well the product worked. I will continue to buy your products, Tinctures and Creams.
Shirley Black, forwarded by Naturia Health 2000, Christchurch
I am writing to tell you about a customer who came into the shop approximately 3 months ago with a severely swollen finger, and complaining of gout-like symptoms. In response, I recommended the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream Extra Strength, and also the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Tincture. An elderly woman on a pension, she opted for the cream only as she found it affordable. About a month later, she returned to the shop very pleased, as the swelling in her finger had gone down and there was no pain. She had also decided to take the tincture, thinking it may also help her arthritic hip. Now, another several weeks later, I met her on the street and she is ably dressing herself (where before she had been extremely stiff in the shoulders) and said that she is also able to sleep much more comfortably at night, as the pain in her hip has eased considerably. She is very pleased with the results so far and has been telling all her friends about the benefits of the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Tincture. With results such as this I will have no hesitations to continue to recommend your product to our customers, along with of course, a few dietary considerations.

During my visit home I found the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Tincture in a store in Wanaka and decided to buy a bottle to try. What a pleasant surprise, IT WORKS! I couldn't be more happy as I've tried so many different things. Before I came back to Canada I bought another bottle in Wellington plus also the ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Cream Extra Strength. I have told friends how good it is, but I am too selfish to part with any of mine. Thank you for producing such a good product.
Dawn, Canada
ARTEMIS Arthro Ease Tincture is wonderful. After taking it for a while I noticed that the soreness of the knee joints and other joints in the body went away.

Itch Calm Cream & Itch Calm Tincture

I have been suffering from very dry skin on my upper lip for many years. I have tried many steroid creams and they only worked short term for me. The moment I stopped using the cream the problem kept coming back. It went to an extent where I would scratch the area like crazy and it had a burning sensation. Then I found ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream. What drew me to it was its non steroidal properties which are hard to find. I knew I had to give it a try and there was no harm in trying it because I didn’t have to worry about the thinning of skin like other steroid creams. I am very happy with the results and I carry the tube in my bag everywhere I go. Thank you for this miracle product.

Have just found your remedies!!! I wish to say THANK YOU!!! Both my daughters suffer eczema, and my 7yr old has just had a flare up. We have started using the ARTEMIS Itch Calm Tincture and seeing great results! Within a day the redness was nearly gone and she has now been taking it for 8 days and it is nearly all gone! So from a mum who suffers having to see her children suffer, thank you!!!!

I had terrible eczema on both my hands several years before I discovered your cream. I had been using a steroid cream and that was working, but I wasn't keen on continuing to use it. I had also read that after a while the steroid cream stops working too. I tried a few natural remedies but none of them could stop the eczema from coming back. I read about your Itch Calm Products in the Organic NZ magazine and decided to try. I have to admit that I didn't think it would work. When I first started using the cream, for several months my eczema got a lot worse. I suppose that is because all the toxins were now being able to get out of my skin. But then the eczema slowly started to improve. It did take a long time to get better, 6 months to a year, but I did have very bad eczema. Now about 90-95% is completely gone and I use no cream at all on those areas. I have a few small stubborn spots but as long as I put a little cream on twice a day my skin is fine. I have been truly amazed and absolutely delighted with this cream. It's miraculous stuff, I highly recommend it.
Jill Freeman, Tauranga
I adore your products!! Thank you so much for your big effort. The Itch Calm Cream was my life saviour when I was stung by a bee - no itching and my swelling went down quickly!
Michelle Ammann
Over the past year or so I have had very bad problems with dermatitis on my legs due to skin allergies. I was in extreme discomfort from irritation and inflammation and couldn't go a few hours without giving into the unbearable itch. Dermatitis cream prescribed by the doctor after a few weeks of use proved to have little effect, thus I used ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength and Itch Calm Tincture. They were quite honestly a life saver and cleared up the dermatitis and eliminated the irritation as soon as I started using them. I still have reoccurring problems and immediately turn to ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream and Tincture because I know it works effectively and efficiently! AMAZING STUFF!!
Erika Rawlings-Blackmore, Dunedin
Your ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength is my 'life-line'. I am currently recovering from surgery I had in June 2006 to remove a tumour. As a result of the surgery and the chronic pain that I have, I am on a high dose of morphine. This high dosage causes severe skin irritation. I have tried several prescribed anti-itch creams which were not effective and am unable to take antihistamines due to the possibility it may have an adverse affect with the medications I am taking. Then I discovered your amazing Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength, it is the only thing I find that gives me relief. I think your cream is fantastic.
G.B, Northland
ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength & ARTEMIS Itch Calm Tincture were a lifesaver for me! In January this year I developed a nasty case of psoriasis. After a week the red swollen lesions covered 90% of my body. During the ten weeks that psoriasis was present I used ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength and ARTEMIS Itch Calm Tincture, essential fatty acids (8000mg a day to start with then 6000mg for 3 months), a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement and implemented a change in diet to relieve, control and remove the psoriasis. I also practiced stress management. I felt an immediate relief once I was on ARTEMIS Itch Calm Tincture and ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength! The psoriasis is now completely gone with no scarring.
Paul James, Dunedin
I have been using ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength for a period of two months to relieve Eczema, and have found it to be most effective. I would recommend its use for similar skin complaints.
Paul Palmer, forwarded by Salus Health, Invercargill
Just for the record, the ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream is a great cream for eczema, I have used many others, my own herbal ones made with dry herb tinctures and also the horrible steroidal and this one has worked incredibly well. Many thanks.
Diane Keaney, Medical Herbalist
I have recently adopted using ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength to relieve the itching of an irritating skin complaint. I have found the Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength relieves the itching considerably. I was concerned about the ongoing use of prescription steroid creams and was very pleased to find a natural product was equally effective.
A.S. Marshall, Christchurch
I have a two year old daughter with very sensitive skin. I have tried almost every homeopathic cream available and know without a doubt, your ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream is the best. We also use the tincture when it's really bad. I have used your other products including the ARTEMIS Pregnancy Tea and ARTEMIS Breastfeeding Tea and loved them.

I wanted to let you know that I got a little sun and wind burn today even with sun block. Two applications of ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength an hour apart, had the burn all out and feeling so much better, so thank you for the treasures that you make.

I have had for several months' sore and annoying eczema under my eye. I have tried many different products but nothing seemed to work. After using the ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength my eczema has completely disappeared!

I have been suffering from jock itch, which was aggravated by stress and alcohol. After trying several products I eventually found the ARTEMIS Itch Calm Cream Extra Strength. This proved most helpful in easing the itch entirely.

Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil

“I have been using ARTETIS Nerve and Skin Rescue Oil for a year now in my Natural Facial products which are sold from my Skin Clinic in Blenheim. I have worked in the cosmetic industry for 10years now have worked with hundreds of oil verities and this oil stands out from the rest. It is absolutely beautiful and hundreds of Marlborough clients are using “Flamingo” my facial moisturiser in which ARTETIS Nerve and Skin Oil is a key ingredient. ALL clients have had good results and continue to repurchase regularly. I also use this oil during facials and on skins which are irritated to the point where you are limited to what product you can place on the skin. This oil is worth every cent you pay for it and I now couldn’t and wouldn’t produce my product range without this lovely oil.”
Juliet, Skin Beautiful Blenheim
I have found that the Nerve and Skin Rescue Oil eases the pain in my ankles and wrists caused through chemo. This pain is severe, rubbing the oil in makes a huge difference. My daughter gave it to me, wished we had known about it 3 years ago. Nothing else works.
J. Grogan
A customer of ours has regularly used the ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil during pregnancy and she hasn't got a single stretch mark. It is great to be able to recommend a product that is reliable.
Christine, Body and Soul, Te Puke
A client of mine was pregnant with her first child. I prescribed ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil as a perineum guard. Her birth went beautifully with no tear or cut in the perineum.
Anja, Medical Herbalist, Wellington
Just a week out from my best friends wedding I got a terrible case of dandruff/flaky scalp. I didn't want to use a strong chemical based anti-dandruff shampoo from the supermarket, so I combined equal measures of ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil and Jojoba oil, rubbed it into my scalp and left it overnight. The next morning, after washing with my regular shampoo and conditioner, the flakiness was gone! What a relief - thank you so much!

Katie, Health 2000 Taradale
I am very impressed with ARTEMIS products. The ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil made with wildcrafted hypericum (St John's Wort) forms part of soothing Breast Care oil that my clients have found to be comforting and calming. Thank you ARTEMIS.

I would like to share a story of a woman who had suffered from 'jumpy legs' at night-time since the birth of her fourth child. She had not been able to find any relief from all the products she had tried until she used ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil . It worked straight away and she said it is fantastic!
Vrena, Watson Hare Health Shop, Queenstown
Hi, I just wanted to say how much I love your products. I am pregnant with our first baby and have been using your ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil from the beginning; it's so lovely and so far no sign of stretch marks! I also love the Pregnancy Tea, it works wonders. It makes me feel so good and helps with a range of ailments. Thank you for making such wonderful products. I also appreciate the packaging you use, as it is recyclable
Tyreena C
Suffering from a painful, swollen elbow with nerve pain running down my lower arm, I went to the Doctor. I was originally diagnosed with 'Tennis Elbow' for which I was given anti-inflammatories. After two more weeks the pain was just as bad and my stomach felt upset from the medication. The pain was going right to my hand and I could hardly even lift a cup of tea. Then I remembered Sandra Clair had said that ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil is for nerve type injuries. I massaged the oil that night when I couldn't sleep from the pain, into my elbows and down the arm. Within 5 minutes I felt relief and within 10 minutes I was able to sleep. I have continued to massage the oil 3 times a day and at night - the condition is improving everyday.
Mazz Haslemore, Dunedin
Our infant daughter had some cradle cap which was rather persistent. After an unsuccessful attempt with olive oil, we applied ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil before she went to bed, and the next morning gently combed her hair and found the dead skin came away beautifully.
Tracy Botica, Registered Midwife, Dunedin
I would like to give you feedback about my experience with your wonderful ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil. I've had an accident which has resulted in severe pain in my lower back. I am unsure whether the pain is coming from a joint, the nerves or ligaments. I could hardly walk anymore. By chance I passed by the Destination Organic Shop in Queenstown where I decided to try the ARTEMIS Nerve & Skin Rescue Oil. Now, two days later - I am ecstatic! There is still pain, but the healing is happening. This is so fantastic! The following morning after I first used it, I could feel a huge difference. I was actually able to walk with far less pain. As the days go on the pain is reducing. I am so happy and thankful.
Your product is amazing - I am really excited about it. I have quite a large experience in herbal products and I have to say this oil is really outstanding. Thank you very much for providing me with such a wonderful healing-oil.

Strain & Tissue Repair Creams & Tincture

I was on a snowboard instructor training course in New Zealand and had been playing in the park on the mountain and hit the edge of the box smack bang on my coxyics. This fully enflamed my coxyics and caused an old injury to re-surface, so much that it disrupted my sleep It prevented me from sitting for any lengths of time. Medicated anti inflammatory and pain medication didn't touch it. However, lucky for me, I was hitching up the mountain with a massage therapist; she said that she was out of stock of this tissue repair tincture and tissue repair cream. She said one of her competitions had some in and I should buy it. Now recommending a competitor a sale there had to be something in it. I used both of them on the acute dose for two weeks, and my coxyics healed to how it was before the original injury. This stuff is really amazing!
Christopher Combs, UK
At times with my work as a massage therapist I have been experiencing pain at the base of my thumbs. I used ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream just once and the pain disappeared almost instantly. I was so impressed with the result. It was 2 weeks before I needed to apply the cream again and had the same result. I have been using the cream on clients who have been suffering with sore shoulders and lower back pain, again with wonderful results. I am so impressed with the product that I am now stocking it in my clinic along with the tincture and many other Artemis products.
Lynette Mills, Body In Mind Massage Therapy
Earlier this year I managed (very successfully) to tear some intercostal muscles. The osteopath I saw assured me all would be well and pain free in about 6 weeks. I applied ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream and applied a hot pack as well at night. I also took the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture 3 to 4 times a day and within 2 weeks was completely pain free. Completely brilliant and I have never been let down by your splendid products yet!! Thankyou!!
Cathy Garton
I used the Chest Relief Elixir, Immuno Boost Tea and Cardio Care Tea to fight off a rampant chest infection before I ran the Dunedin Half Moro Marathon and I thus managed to get a very good time. I also used the Tissue & Strain Repair Tincture for the last 6 weeks in my build up. All worked wonders. Now I head straight for the ARTEMIS range for any health concerns for myself and my customers.
Tracey Crosswell, Health Consultant, Dunedin
I bought the Tissue Repair Cream for my 18 month old after he hit his forehead hard into a coffee table. It came up with a bruise straight away, so cancelled daycare and went straight to the health shop. After 2 applications, the bruising and swelling has almost gone.
Denise Carter-Bennett
I had to finish work as an Auto-Electrician due to a chronic back injury and wrist pain from an infected nervous system, a specialist told me my working days were over! I purchased ARTEMIS Herbal Cream in 1999 and to this day wouldn't be with out it as other creams and medications have had very minor effects. My number one product ARTEMIS Strain Relief Cream has helped so much and I truly believe this to be one of the major influences in helping me to do any work again. I use this cream nearly everyday after a shower and it takes the pain away without damaging my body. Thanks Sandra, your herbal medicine has most certainly improved my life and is an everyday blessing, thank you.
T. McCarthy, Mobility Scooters, Otago
ARTEMIS herbal creams are definitely the best on the market in New Zealand. I started using them after a patient recommended them to me and although skeptical at first, I became quickly converted. I now stock ARTEMIS and recommend the product to patients, particularly those with chronic conditions like sciatica or sports injuries. ARTEMIS Strain Repair Cream Extra Strength works brilliantly on post trauma tissue and works for a long time following application. The creams make a marvelous stand-by when travelling and in between treatments. Many of my patients would not have achieved such good results if it had not been for ARTEMIS products. I would recommend the products to physiotherapists, chiropractors and osteopaths everywhere and often do so at seminars.
Katrina O Neill Osteopath, Queenstown Osteopathic Clinic
In my clinic and for personal use I find the ARTEMIS Strain Repair Cream Extra Strength particularly effective in treating muscles that are acutely strained from overuse. It is also very useful once the acute phase has passed but the muscles are still feeling 'tight'. Tension headaches can also be relieved by rubbing the ARTEMIS Strain Repair Cream Extra Strength into the back of the neck at the base of the skull.
Annette Mills, Physiotherapist, Dunedin
I used the ARTEMIS Strain Repair Cream on a back injury to keep it warm especially when I was out running in the cold. I loved the way it just kept my back warm for nearly 24 hours which was part of the success in keeping it mobile whilst sitting and playing sport. My back is much better these days, but because this was such magic cream I thought it would be good to have some more in the house. I have also used it on shoulder injuries and again having that continual heat is more convenient than any heat pad. I am just careful not to get it anywhere near the face!
Karen Shepherd
In despair as a golfer's wife hearing about the 'sore bod' always, I thought there may be a product out there for him. ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream has come to the rescue. Two applications - one in the evening, another prior to golf. Well, this is fantastic, he has played 18 holes, and come in actually standing straight! I have come for another jar in case it runs out. Thanks!
C Fraser, Dunedin
Last week I bought your ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture as I had a very painful hamstring/tendon injury. I pulled this tendon in April (it was an old injury from 2004) here we are in August and it is still painful. It hurts to sit for more than a few minutes, sending a pain down my right outer thigh. I have been to a chiropractor since June and done various exercises, without relief. I have been taking your tincture for 6 days and I am really thrilled to feel the pain is finally reduced. Also, my daughter had rhinoplasty two weeks ago and I thought it would benefit her (for swelling etc), so she too has been taking it for the last 6 days also and daily she is looking and feeling better.
L. George
I have been recommending the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture and Tissue Repair Cream Extra Strength to my customers and patients for many years now, as I feel that these are the most effective therapeutic tissue healing products on the retail market. Recently I had some pretty impressive feedback from a patient who had torn her hamstring a few days earlier. The leg had extensive black bruising and the patient was on crutches and in considerable pain. Her prescription included ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture at the acute dose for the first 4 days, then reducing to the chronic dose for 3-4 weeks thereafter. The cream was to be gently applied to the area twice daily. The patient came in to see me 5 days later, purely to let me know how rapidly her leg was healing and to show me that she was already off the crutches!
Anya, Naturopath, Commonsense Organics Wellington
Dear Sandra, you will recall that several months ago you gave me some advise for treating the Raynauds problem I have, with regard to my hands where I have suffered chilblains during the past winters - and also painful cracks at the fingertips. You recommended the use of your ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream. I am very pleased to tell you that this product is quite remarkable. By applying it several times a day to my fingers I have remained free of chilblains all winter, and even more importantly, I have stayed free of those painful cracks in my fingertips which have troubled me so much in the past. Consequently, your ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream has brought about a significant improvement in my quality of life over the cold months of winter. I cannot speak highly enough of this product and I've recommended it to others. Your product is the only one which had these important advantages, among all the others I have tried in the past. It's also excellent for relieving dryness of the skin on my hands. I presume your product achieves its benefits because of its particularly strong concentration of valuable herbs, and because of the presence of Comfrey in its profile. Thanks so much for your valuable advice to me
John Morine
I have used ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream for many years now on clients suffering from hypertonicity - swelling and overuse injuries to soft tissue. I find this cream assists greatly in their rehabilitation, as it nourishes these stressed tissues, soothes the immediate area, enabling progressively improved function and pain relief. I highly recommend ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream.
Karen Jacquard, RN, Massage Therapist, Dunedin
I brought your ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream and ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture to help with OOS. I have used it for 6 weeks and found it great so far, with a reduction in pain in my arms. Thanks!
J. Bews-Hair, Auckland
In my clinic work as an Aromatherapist I have found that applying the ARTEMIS herbal creams to particular areas before a full body massage to be very effective. One case that comes to mind was with a client who had a noticeable red, swollen area by her shoulder blade. I applied the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream before a full body massage and then worked gently over the area with a blend of essential oils. When I had completed the massage I thought that I would apply another application of the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream. When I went to apply it I was amazed to find that I was not able to visually see that area as I had at the beginning of the massage as the redness and swelling had gone. I applied the second application anyway, as I felt this appropriate. My client was pleased with how different her shoulder area felt.
Sharyn Crawford, Aromatherapist NZROHA, Dunedin
I am a 52 year old with a medical problem involving the deterioration of the peripheral nerves of my lower legs and feet causing immense pain, which is unable to be controlled by medication. Two years ago, when the pain was causing me great distress, I was recommended by a naturopath in a Natural Health shop, to try the Artemis product, ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream, to see if I had any lessening of my pain, or if I gained any comfort from it. I also took the ARTEMIS Tissue & Strain Repair Tincture in conjunction to absorb as much of this product when I needed it most.
I am pleased to recommend this product to you, as I have been using it ever since, the soothing cream creates a coolness on the skin, reducing all the heat which occurs, then goes down through the tissues, giving much needed pain relief. I also use it as an anti-inflammatory pain reliever for strains and sprains, and because it contains only natural herb extracts, it can be applied as much as required.
If you are in a similar position to mine, try it, for although my problem can't be cured, I have a better quality of life due to this ARTEMIS herbal medicine.
Bev White, Dunedin
I have been treating a client of mine with ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture for a torn meniscus. He had booked a trip to china for 2 months and when I saw him he was apprehensive about going because of the pain and limited movement in his knee and leg, he was contemplating canceling his trip. Two days after being on your mix he called me and said he was not going to cancel his trip and how well he was doing....virtually pain free!
Rene Harris, Medical Herbalist, Auckland
I am writing to say how much I appreciate the ARTEMIS products, ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream and ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Tincture. I teach eight 1 and a half hour Yoga classes each week and undertake extensive meditations in my practices as a Buddhist nun. I also need to maintain an area of the garden for the Centre and do my share of housework. <br />I find at times that my back and legs in particular can become stressed and painful. When this happens, I find that these ARTEMIS products - especially when used together are the only medicine that is of any real help. Thank you for your effort and expertise in providing these wonderful herbal treatments.
Ani Kunzang, Dhargyey Buddhist Centre, Dunedin
Cinical Observation - As a physiotherapist in private practice, I have used Sandra Clair's ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream on my patients for over four years now, and have been most impressed by its efficacy. I used it initially on a patient with an inflamed supraspinatus tendon in the shoulder who was allergic to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). I was pleasantly surprised when not only was there no allergic reaction to the cream, but it worked better in calming the inflammation than I would have expected topical Voltaren to. Since then I have used the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream as a regular adjunct to manual physiotherapy techniques: I have never seen a skin or other allergic reaction to it. I have found it most useful in treating particularly inflamed structures, where I would want to add in something extra to actively counter the inflammatory part of the problem over and above just treating the mechanical aspect.
It has been especially useful in treating tennis and golfer's elbows, supraspinatus and Achilles tendonitis, De Quervain's tenosynovitis, and components of occupational overuse syndrome (OOS). Patients needing to continue with straining or stressful activities have found regular use of the cream highly effective for keeping things under control and not letting them build up to an acute flare of the problem area. I also use it regularly to ease the after-effects of manipulation or deep soft tissue massage or frictions.
My clinical impression is that the ARTEMIS Tissue Repair Cream gives results on strained, inflamed soft tissue problems as good as, and usually better than, the standard topical NSAIDs, and without any of the allergic reactions that can occur with these medications. I fully recommend it to practitioners and patients.

Vein Support Cream & Vein Support Tincture

I have recently brought your ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream and I think it is fantastic. I have been using it for 5 days and have started to see an improvement. I am now thinking of getting the ARTEMIS Vein Support Tincture as well. I have some varicose veins I would like to see improved before summer time when my stockings are coming off.
M. Penberthy, Australia
I wish to endorse a product I was recommended by one of the excellent people employed by Commonsense Organics in Paraparaumu. The product is ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream. I had a rather nasty haemorroid and thought I may have to go to the doctor. Fortunately I was in Commonsense and asked this lady if they had any remedies. I purchased the Vein Support Cream and applied it twice a day and continued with the application over a period of approximately 2-3 weeks, and it disappeared, so most impressed. I also sometimes have skins itches appearing and disappearing and nothing much seems to help. Although this product doesn't mention helping this type of problem, I tried one application and received immediate relief, so will continue to use the cream for this purpose. I will look for ARTEMIS products from now on for any problems I have.
D. Nicol, Paraparaumu
I am very impressed with ARTEMIS products. In my practice I have used ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream for haemorrhoids and congested varicose veins on the areola of nipple and breast. Thank you Artemis.

I would like to thank you wholeheartedly! I have been using your ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream & ARTEMIS Vein Support Tincture for the last 3 or 4 weeks, for spider veins initially but a miracle has happened. I had a lump (1 1/2 yrs) diagnosed as a cyst and was thinking of surgery when I realised a few days ago that it had reduced to almost nothing and from extremely hard the whole area has become soft i.e. normal again. Many thanks again, I will continue using your products they're wonderful, I'm so happy.
Arzhela Henton, Auckland
My son complained about chilblains on his fingers and toes. I gave him a bottle of ARTEMIS Vein Support Tincture to try and he was impressed that this product gave him relief within two days. He now keeps it on hand for the cold winter months.

I have been taking ARTEMIS Vein Support Tincture and after a week finally have shrinkage of haemorroids. I am a competitive sportsperson and am glad to find a natural remedy as I have had them regularly since the birth of my second child almost 15 years ago!
A. M. Wycliffe Street, Onekawa, Napier
A customer presented with very swollen, throbbing and painful veins due to a heart condition. She urgently needed pain relief and a remedy, which would help to reduce the swelling and inflammation. We prescribed her ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream to rub onto her legs 3-4 times a day and ARTEMIS Vein Support Tincture internally. She responded very well to this treatment and after 6 weeks her painful symptoms had resolved. She continued with the ARTEMIS Vein Support Cream for another 6 weeks in order to prevent a relapse. We were impressed with the results and have no hesitation in continuing to prescribe the ARTEMIS range to our customers.

Chest Relief Elixir

I used the Chest Relief Elixir, Immuno Boost Tea and Cardio Care Tea to fight off a rampant chest infection before I ran the Dunedin Half Moro Marathon and I thus managed to get a very good time. I also used the Tissue & Strain Repair Tincture for the last 6 weeks in my build up. All worked wonders. Now I head straight for the ARTEMIS range for any health concerns for myself and my customers.

I have found the Artemis Chest Relief to be amazing! I had a very heavy chesty cough, that usually lasts for weeks, and after three days of taking your syrup it has almost gone! So much better than the other so called cough medicines. Thanks heaps
Trevor Lewis
We just used your ARTEMIS Chest Relief Elixir for out 11 month old daughter, very impressed! She has had a lingering cough for a month or so and it has cleared up over the last week using the elixir, it also tastes amazing, so great for child compliance!
Steve and Ursula, Dunedin.
I suffer from asthma which is particularly bad in winter time. Since I am taking a regular daily dose of the ARTEMIS Chest Relief I experience much less wheezing. Also, I have not had a cough this winter which is extraordinary. I now use my inhaler only on very rare occasions which is fantastic!
Bruce T, Wellington
After trying EVERY other cough syrup with no clear result or benefit I decided to give the ARTEMIS Chest Relief a try. Within one day, I had relief from the cough and with subsequent use I cleared up the chest problem completely. This is now the only cough syrup I use and recommend to my customers.
Lorealle, Pharmacist Gardens Unichem Pharmacy, Dunedin

Elder Lemon Syrup

I have suffered for many years with sinus problems and severe bouts of sinusitus. Since using the ARTEMIS Elder Lemon Syrup, I have not had sinusitis once and found my daily drink of this delicious syrup has kept my other sinus symptoms at bay.
D Scelly, Dunedin

Thyme Lemon Syrup

My father was suffering from bronchitis which he was unable to shift. He received two rounds of antibiotics but was still quite ill with a lot of coughing. I gave him the ARTEMIS Thyme Lemon Syrup and within 2 days he brought up the irritating phlegm, the cough disappeared and the bronchitis resolved. He was very pleased with the quick results, especially after the unsuccessful antibiotics.
K.B. Nelson
I am an absolute advocate of ARTEMIS' Thyme Lemon Syrup. Until recently I have always suffered from chest complications following colds & flu with an annoying cough. Now I have been introduced to this product I no longer have this problem. At the very first sign of a cold I immediately reach for my Thyme Lemon Syrup! For me it has really worked and I am extremely grateful to ARTEMIS for making this product available. I feel so much healthier and energised.
Sue Flintoft, Nelson

ViroGone Elixir

I was booked to go on a holiday in three days when I felt I was coming down with a cold, experiencing the typical signs of sore throat, blocked sinuses and aching joints. Knowing that the flight would be difficult to endure I took the ARTEMIS ViroGone and was pleasantly surprised how quickly the symptoms cleared up. I was able to travel without any discomfort.
Karen Jacquard, Registered Nurse, Dunedin
I caught a very nasty virus whilst travelling to London. My white blood platelets rose significantly and I was booked in to remove my spleen as it had blown up trying to cleanse the virus. I was given the ARTEMIS ViroGone and started to feel much better within a short time. The following week when I had the next blood test my doctor was shocked that the white blood platelets had decreased significantly. I never had the surgery and have not caught a subsequent viral infection. I now take a daily dose during the colder months to protect myself from viruses.
