KENT, UK, October 8, 2026: Green Gold Clinic, led by Kent-based clinical herbal medicine practitioner Maria Shahin, has unveiled a new website designed to help people learn more about herbal healthcare and explore the clinic’s consultation services. The launch represents a further step in developing the practice’s regional presence and making information about its services more readily available online.
Based in Kent, Green Gold Clinic is led by Maria Shahin, a fully accredited and professionally insured practitioner of Western Herbal Medicine. The website forms part of the clinic’s ongoing development and offers prospective patients a complimentary five-minute discovery consultation.
The clinic also works with the corporate sector, supporting employers who want to help their workforce improve productivity and workplace effectiveness. Maria focuses on areas including stress management, menopause, andropause, hormonal health and metabolic wellbeing.
The website launch represents an important development in Maria Shahin’s professional career, which has been shaped by more than a decade of involvement in herbal medicine. Although she completed her formal training in the UK, her interest in plants and natural remedies dates back to childhood.
Maria remembers being fascinated by botanical ingredients from an early age, experimenting with natural fragrances and mixtures while other children spent their time playing.
This early interest eventually developed into a career spanning more than 20 years in the perfume industry, where she gained considerable experience working with plant-derived ingredients and understanding their characteristics.
Following three years of living and working in the United States, Maria returned to England in 2019. She subsequently completed her clinical herbal medicine training and has been fully qualified in the UK since 2023.
Green Gold Clinic supports adults aged 18 to 80, with particular attention to health concerns that may arise during midlife. Consultations provide an opportunity for patients to discuss their medical history, nutrition, supplements, and acute or chronic health conditions.
Maria is a member of the National Institute of Medical Herbalists, the UK’s leading professional organisation for medical herbal practitioners. Her education combined academic study with supervised clinical experience, preparing her to work with a wide range of health concerns.
The new website aims to simplify access to information about clinical herbal medicine while helping visitors understand the services available through the practice.
“Launching the website is an important step in making it easier for people to understand what clinical herbal medicine involves and how consultations can support their health needs,” said Maria. “For many people, the first challenge is knowing where to find reliable information, and the website helps provide that starting point.”
The launch coincides with growing public interest in herbal medicine and lifestyle-based approaches to health. Online platforms are becoming an increasingly important way for specialist practitioners to share information and connect with potential patients.
Maria believes that a clear digital presence is an important part of delivering a modern healthcare service.
“My experience through study, clinical training and professional practice has reinforced the importance of taking an individual approach to health,” she said. “The website enables patients to learn more about that process and decide whether a consultation may be appropriate for them.”
Through the new platform, Green Gold Clinic aims to reach more people across Kent and offer information for those interested in herbal medicine prescriptions, nutritional and supplement advice, and exercise guidance.
As the practice develops, the website is expected to become its main online resource for existing patients and people considering a consultation.
The website is now available at greengoldclinic.com.
