Herbs & Health...Medical Herbalism

Medical Herbalism

Medical herbalism is the oldest form of Medicine. It offers a safe, gentle and natural approach to well-being for people of all ages.

Just think: over 80% of the world’s population uses plant-based medicines and 75% of prescriptions used today were derived from plants. Popular examples? From the barks of willow trees came Aspirin; morphine from poppies and Digitalis from the leaves of foxgloves.

While pharmaceutical companies focus on extracting isolated “active” constituents from herbs, herbalists use whole plants or whole plant extracts and the resulting natural balance makes medicinal herbs a safer, gentler approach to well-being.

Whereas contemporary Medicine tends to rely on single solutions for multiple individuals, “You’ve got this – take that”, Medical Herbalism adopts a more holistic approach. Herbal interventions are tailored to each individual so that imbalances can be corrected, allowing the body to regain its vitality. As vitality improves so does strength, wellness and the ability to fight disease.
