When I first met Tish I knew she was incredibly special. She was so easy to talk to, so thoughtful, caring and offered advice and support to help make important changes. The combination of herbs and Tish's support have helped me make some huge and very positive changes in my life.
I recently had 3 days of Ayurvedic Marma Massage with Tish. I've had massage before but this was on a completely different level and I know I will be feeling the benefits as I continue to make these important life changes.
Tish truly has a gift and I feel incredibly grateful to have met her and couldn't be happier having her help guide me through life's ups and downs.

Stress, Psychosis, Weight Loss
Tish, has helped me a lot in a serious low point in my life, shortly after my second episode of psychosis, brought on via stress. Tish, managed to help me by looking at my imbalances and providing me with herbs, food recommendations and healthy mindfulness practices. After a short 3 months, I am back to how I used to be. I no longer have prolonged low moods, and my eating structure has improved immensely. I have also lost weight and gained my energy back. I now run daily and do the things that used to bring me joy. I researched into Ayurveda and was drawn to Tish as I was finding it hard with western medication. She gave me balance and hope -a life changing experience and something that I would like to continue for the rest of my life! Massive thank you to Tish, for her love, support, help and inspiration. I highly recommend!

Energy, Stagnation, Weight Loss
Tish asks a lot of questions, which I hadn't asked myself. She is honest, open, very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Tish changed my diet and gave me specific herbs and immediately I started to lose stubborn weight. Despite this I still felt stagnant and Tish recommended Ayurvedic Marma Massage and Shirodhara over 3 days. It was fabulous, and I woke up the morning after the last session totally revitalised, with my old energy and enthusiasm back. I can't thanks Tish enough for giving me back my old self!

Allergies, IBS, CFS
I have suffered from hayfever and allergies for 40 years, and they have been getting worse. When asked what else was wrong health wise, I said nothing but began to realise that I have been living with IBS, CFS and insomnia for the past 15 years. I felt that it was normal at 60yrs to have poor sleep, wake up feeling tired, poor energy levels and bloating, sluggish bowel. 5wks in and I am sleeping well, wake up more refreshed, have massively increased energy levels (like they were 20yrs ago)! I have lost my bloated tummy, so smaller waist and hip measurements and feel blooming brilliant! To say the words ‘life changing’ is not an exaggeration.What surprised me more than anything is that I have fallen in love with cooking! The recipes are delicious and I relish preparing the delish Masal Chai, to the best curry I have ever tasted in my life, to realising that making homemade soup is easy peasy.Oh and it really helps that Tish is a super lovely, wonderful human being and explains everything so well.

Chronic Pain, Mood, Energy
A few months after my first appointment with Tish and I am already feeling massive benefits. Tish has been very helpful, informative and encouraging and Im amazed at how a few tweaks in my diet has improved my overall health, energy and mood. Ive learned to listen to my body more, and eat whats right for my body type rather than relay on the medical professions advice. The initial herbal treatments helped a great deal, as did the massage oil. The Marma massage was also great, very relaxing and energising at the same time. I would defo recomend, Tish has helped me manage my chronic pain, energy levels and overall mood; i feel so much lighter, relaxed and happier in myself after just a few months. Thank you Tish :D

I attended Highland Ayurveda with general and menopause health issues. Tish was great and her advice was spot on. I followed her guidance taking the prescribed herbs and oils, which took a bit of getting used to, but had great results. It was just what I needed and gave me back some control and motivation. Highly recommend a visit.

I have been working with Tish for some months now and for the first time in a couple of years I have finally started to feel like myself again. I was suffering from various symptoms including brain fog, lethargy, mood swings, heart palpitations, and anxiety, and many more. I am happy to say almost all of my symptoms have cleared up since since following the nutritional and lifestyle changes Tish recommended. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with her and feel now that Ayurveda is very easy to integrate into everyday life. Tish makes understanding it uncomplicated and treats you as a whole being. I highly recommend the Ayurvedic Marma Massage and Shirodhara head massage - they’re amazing!

Energy, Anxiety, Food Sensitivities
I did a 4 day ‘Ayurveda Retreat’ with Tish which was incredibly powerful, particularly as it came at a time when I was making decisions about my future life direction. I felt deeply nurtured and reconnected with parts of myself that I hadn’t been in contact with for a long time. Since the retreat I have a lot more confidence in my energy levels, which means for the first time in years, I am being active without any hesitation or anxiety. I have also felt safe enough to expand the foods I eat (since developing food sensitivities 8 years ago) and this is continuing to get better and better. The week of the retreat lots of pieces fell into place around my future life direction and I feel I’ve turned a corner. I’m truly grateful to Tish and to Ayurveda for the unfolding of this new chapter.

I went to Tish a few months ago and am now beginning to go off my herbs. Over the months I have noticed changes in my physical health and emotional state, not necessarily as things change in my life, but because I deal with then a lot better and I have Tish to thank for that. Tish has been an amazing person to talk to and know, and she always listens. I’m so glad I went to her for guidance and I strongly recommend Highland Ayurveda.

Chronic Neck and Shoulder Pain
Visited Highland Ayurveda whilst holidaying in Nairn. Tish's Ayurvedic Massage treatment provided immediate and lasting relief of some chronic neck and back pain. The Treatment Room, with an Eastern feel and art that Tish has collected in her travels, creates a relaxing vibe.

CFS / ME - IBS- Fibromyalgia
I can honestly say that I feel like a different person 6mths on. Tish recommended a treatment plan which was very different to anything I've seen before, which felt like a total body, mind and heart scan - very holistic. After 10yrs of being a prisoner to ME/CFS/Fibromyalgia I am really enjoying being free of pain, nausea, exhaustion to my core and other symptoms which would swing from one extreme to another., I now feel liberated and much more in control of my own body, rather than wait and see what I could manage in a day. I also have confidence knowing that if any symptoms were to creep back in, I have a way of dealing with them as well as expert guidance form Tish. This has been life changing and I'm grateful for your attention, focus and support. I have never received such a holistic treatment despite seeing various consultants over the years.

Tish's professionalism and care shine through. I had a long history of inflammation and more recent severe health concern. She was able to give a totally thorough investigation into my mental, emotional and physical history of health, and clearly explain the process of healing. 2 months on and my conditions are all but gone and I'm feeling great, able to eat what I like and the problems of the recent past are behind me. Highly recommend - Thank you Tish.

Osteoarthritis and General Health
I experience quite a lot of pain from osteoarthritis. Following an in depth assessment from Tish she advised use of an Ayurvedic massage oil. This I found to be very effective for pain relief in addition it doesn't have the side effects of making me drowsy which my conventional medicine does. Tish is a warm understanding person who listens to you and provides advice tailored to meet your needs

In 3mths, I can honestly say I feel calmer, more relaxed, hot flushes and sweats have decreased, headaches have reduced and coeliac digestive issues improved considerably. Since my second massage I am much calmer, more balanced with a shift in energy and I am sleeping deeper, my circulation has improved and my diet is much healthier. I've now lost over a stone and am confident I will reach my ideal. I am extremely comfortable to discuss my problems with Tish, as she is very caring and professional and her calm nature made me feel at ease. She's obviously been trained by the best and her teacher must be very proud of what she has achieved! I feel lucky to have found her.

Tish has always been really approachable, calm and understanding.The main thing I found useful was that Tish really listened to me and helped me to open up. With her great life experiences she helped me to put things into perspective with recommendations that have helped me to get onto a good, balanced path for the future. The Treatment Plan she suggested was well rounded and specific to me, including exercise, diet, natural remedies and simple activities, such as breathing exercises, which I love and now take time each day, for myself to do this. I found the natural home remedies very effective too and still use them. Follow up sessions were great to check in on my progress and Tish was always encouraging and supportive.
I feel much more healthy and have a better understanding of myself, and am so grateful I started with Tish. I would thoroughly recommend Tish as an Ayurvedic Health Practitioner.

Jeanette had deteriorating health for over 10yrs which many approaches had failed to resolve. She was becoming increasingly frustrated and angry, with low energy. After 3wks her confidence and happiness had shifted dramatically, she adopted a healthy eating regime and increased physical activities with Talking Therapy and herbal remedies. Her symptoms improved dramatically and she was able to cancel a planned tonsillectomy, stop taking painkillers and antacids. Jeanette says that she 'feels like her authentic self'. She loves herself and is loving that her old clothes are already too big. Jeanette has a much better understanding of who she is and how the foods she eats affect not only digestion and physical health, but mental and emotional health too. She can see life much more clearly, with evident positive change in all areas.

Tish's compassionate and insightful approach makes Ayurvedic wisdom a million miles more achievable and effective. I will now always come to Highland Ayurveda when I need to. The care and detailed, tailored approach to the individual's character is absolutely spot on! I'm so grateful to have found Tish, she's working with my son and in a very short space of time, has completely understood him and joined the dots between body and mind. He feels supported, listened to and respected. Tish's suggestions are spot on and he's really empowered to follow the treatment plan and feel better. I can't thank Tish enough for her warm, sensitive and down to earth approach. She's really shone a light onto a tricky time. I highly recommend her. Excellent.

This was my first time learning about Ayurveda. Tish took her time, really listened to me and explained things simply. It was so different to any experience I have had with Western medicine, as she wants to understand you wholly, as a person in order to treat you holistically and get you on a better path in life. My consultation caused me to reflect on my habits (good and bad) and elucidated some subconscious behaviours that have been affecting my health for many years, I'm excited to take this new approach to a healthier and happier life.

I had never heard of Ayurvedic practice before, and I was of course skeptical however during my first session I left feeling lighter and feeling more enthusiastic about my health journey than I had before. I was listened to and I felt I was able to say anything without judgment or stress. Every remedy and herb recommended to me was given with an in-depth explanation on how they worked and how they would work for me. I've seen dramatic changes in my mood, my eating habits and the way my body generally feels after six months. I could not recommend more- thank you very much.

Inflammatory Skin Disorder
Tish has a warm energy, is attentive, honest and knowledgeable. She embodies the qualities you look for in an Ayurvedic practitioner. I was feeling very let down and hopeless after being on many different treatments and waiting months to see a dermatologist while the skin condition got worse. I came to her when I was having a very bad inflammatory outbreak on my skin causing a lot of pain and discomfort. She was really busy but fitted me in and gave me something to help temporarily, then moved on to treatment later. In 3 mths. I feel like I can do things normally in my life again. I would recommend Tish to anyone, she is wonderful and reliable and has helped me so much - I'm truly grateful.

Prior to visiting Tish, my symptoms included stress, memory loss, poor concentration, regular migraines, mood swings and daily headaches. I have seen a marked improvement, not least that I no longer take Omeprazole as my acid reflux has completely gone and I have reduced my Sertraline by 50%.I am very grateful to have been introduced to Tish and Ayurveda

Tish changed my life. I couldn't recommend Highland Ayurveda more! After just a few weeks of following the meticulously designed diet plan (so detailed and tailored to my individual needs) I already noticed a huge difference in my health and energy levels. I have developed healthier eating and lifestyle habits thanks to Tish that I hope to continue with forever. After a miserable year of repeated infections that I was unable to get rid of via the NHS, my ayurvedic plan has fixed everything! I've not had a single kidney infection since. Truly life changing.
Tish couldn't have been more kind, patient and professional in our sessions, she is truly a wonderful human and I cannot sing her praises enough!
Thanks Tish for bringing such goodness back into my life

I went to Highland Ayurveda for the full Ayurvedic Marma Massage and Shirodara treatment. It was such a lovely, warm welcome from Tish, who listened compassionately to understand what I needed most.
What followed was pure bliss! The Shirodara was like a hug for the soul. It was like an out of body experience that left me floating on air. I have been feeling lighter and brighter with more clarity ever since. I can't thank you enough and I will definitely be back soon! Jamie🙏🥰

Our goal in starting ayuvedic treatment was to improve our overall health and wellbeing. We are now two months into our treatment plan and feeling the benefits.
Tish has a very professional and friendly manner. We had a detailed assessment, followed by an individualised treatment plan. The herbal remedies and adaptation to our diets did take a bit of getting used to, but we have persevered, with ongoing support from Tish.
We feel it has been a worthwhile investment in effort and time and recommend Highland Ayurveda

You read about ways to find calm and change your life, but until you've spoken face to face with someone like Tish, it's hard to actually make positive changes. Tish is a legend!

I'm now more aware of my choices, and stick to the plan because I can see positive change in many areas of my life.

I've been in medical practice as a GP for 25 yrs and can't recall anything like that happening. I have had thanks on several occasions for ''saving'' patients by picking up diagnoses etc, but changing someone's life in such a positive way is a different thing altogether. You are a born practitioner Tish, I can see that very clearly.

I first saw Tish at a talk she was giving in the community centre. I was feeling quite ill at the time and anxious about an upcoming medical procedure. I made an appointment and I didn’t look back. Tish listened to me and with care and understanding helped me through a difficult time. She turned my life around with some changes to my diet and lifestyle including how, what and when to eat. I’m now enjoying some nutritious meals. I feel fitter, happier and more energetic. I hope to maintain this lifestyle but I know Tish will be there to advise if I let things slip.

I was interested in Ayurvedic treatment and luckily I found Highland Ayurveda. Tish is an amazing healer, listener, guide and friend. From very first day she approached me friendly, knowing that I am new in the UK and do not know anyone. She listens carefully and asks the right questions to know what kind of treatment you need. She approaches individually and explains everything so easily anyone can understand. Besides, she gives you understanding about Ayurveda so later you can continue your treatment yourself. I am happy that I have met her and very grateful.
