The HI-Shifa Clinic
HI Shifa Clinic was founded by husband and wife practitioners, Hamza and Ishrat, after graduating in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Middlesex University. Our shared goal has always been simple: to help people achieve better health through personalised, natural healthcare that looks beyond symptom management.
Today, HI Shifa Clinic operates primarily through online consultations and personalised herbal medicine, making expert care accessible wherever you are. For patients requiring physical therapies such as acupuncture or cupping, we also offer home visits in selected areas.
We believe every patient deserves to be listened to and understood. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, we take the time to explore your health history, lifestyle and symptoms to create a treatment plan tailored specifically to you — with practical guidance and ongoing support throughout, so you always understand your progress and next steps.
Whether you're struggling with persistent pain, digestive issues, fatigue, skin conditions, stress, or another acute or chronic health concern, our aim is not only to support your recovery but to help you understand your health and regain confidence in your wellbeing.
Five steps, from consultation to recovery
Book Your Consultation
Send a pre-consultation health summary — your main concern, important dates and diagnosed conditions, current medications, sleep and diet, and a clear photo of your tongue in natural light — so your practitioner can review it in advance.
30-Minute Online Consultation
We take the time to understand your health in detail, clarifying your medical history and identifying the underlying patterns contributing to your condition.
Personalised Treatment Plan
A bespoke herbal medicine prescription, dietary recommendations, natural therapies such as acupuncture or hijama, lifestyle guidance and self-care advice.
Herbal Medicine Delivered
Your personalised herbal prescription is prepared and posted directly to your home, with clear instructions on how to take it.
Follow-Up Support
Ongoing review to assess your progress, adjust your prescription if needed, monitor your response, and continue supporting your recovery.
