Herbal Medicine

Herbalism have been a part of healing since the dawn of time. Many pharmaceuticals are based off the isolated consistuents found in plants. There is something to be said about synergy, and in herbal medicine we gain the benefit of synergy by using all of the compounds in a plant to support the body's natural ability to heal amd achieve homeostasis. Herbs can be prepared in an assortment of way for you to use, depending on what issue is addressed.

Clinical and holistic herbalists assess multple aspects of a client's life to gain a clearer picture as to what may be the root cause of their health concern so that we more effectively correct imbalances. Herbs are not pharmaceutics and should not be considered a direct replacement for medication; they have a more gentle approach as a catalyst for change in the one's health. Capsules, liquid extracts, teas, and ointments are but a few of the methods of using herbs for wellness. I tend to favor tinctures in most cases since they are shelf-stable, concentrated extracts, and easy to use.

Herbal Inquiry
