Herbs

"The scope of herbal medicine ranges from mild-acting plant medicines such as chamomile and peppermint, to very potent ones such as foxglove (from which the drug digitalis is derived). In between these two poles lies a wide spectrum of plant medicine with significant medical applications. One need only go to the United States Pharmacopeia to see the central role that plant medicine has played in American medicine."     ~Donald Brown, N.D., of Bastyr University, in Seattle, Washington

•   Better results using herbs in some chronic cases like Inflammatory    Bowel Disease compared to standard western medicines like              metronidazole and prednisone.                                           

•   Worked well for asthma in cats. 

•   Arthritis cases to reduce the need for harsh pharmaceuticals

•   Because of our training in both fields of Western and Herbal         medicine,  we can closely monitor any issues of herb-drug   interactions.             

•   We carry over 75 organic dry herbs frozen  to maintain potency.     We  make our own herbal mixtures and tinctures specific for   individual  cases

 

Archeological evidence dates the medicinal use of herbs back 60,000 years to the neanderthals. Eighty five percent of the world's population employ herbs as medicine, and 40% of pharmaceuticals in the U.S. contain plant derived materials. Fewer than 10% of higher plant species have been investigated for their medicinal components.

Plant medicine does not just improve symptoms; it approaches healing the whole of the body - as opposed to Western medicine, which may just approach the symptom.
