Consultations
In your private consultation, the job of the herbalist is to help you understand what is going on with your body. With this understanding, you can then decide how your healing can begin. You will learn how to put foods, vitamins and herbs as well as your emotions and spiritual tools (all working together) into your healing process.
Herbal Consultations
What is Herbal Medicine?
Herbal Medicine is the art and science of using herbs for promoting health, while preventing and treating illness. Studies show that 75% of the world's population still rely primarily upon traditional healing practices, most of which is herbal medicine.
Herbal medicine can be as easy as taking a spoonful of herbal bitters for gas and bloating after a heavy meal, or soaking in a bath with rosemary tea for headaches. For long-standing conditions such as gynecological problems or chronic fatigue, treatment could include daily herbal tonics and supplements, as well as dietary changes. Herbal medicine has the advantage of benefiting many parts of the body, often without the negative side effects that most pharmaceutical drugs have. Herbal medicine works to support the body to heal, not just treat symptoms.
How does Herbal Medicine Help?
Herbs offer a wide range of safe and effective therapeutic agents that can be used as an integral part of your health care program:
- to prevent disease
- to maximize one's health potential
- to provide symptomatic relief of minor ailments
What can you expect at your first Herbal Consultation?
Most visits begin with a detailed assessment of your past and current health history, your dietary and lifestyle practices, and other factors related to your health issues. With your involvement, we develop an integrated health program that addresses your specific needs, looking at the whole person, not the disease. Herbal recommendations can involve varying forms of preparations: e.g. teas, extracts, aromatherapy, flower essences, capsules, or culinary herbs.
