Why Work with a Clinical Herbalist?

 

• Are you ready to take your health to the next level, but you don’t know where to begin?

• Do you feel intuitively drawn to herbs and holistic practices, but are also taking pharmaceuticals and are concerned about herb-drug interactions?

• Are you living with complex medical conditions that other modalities have not been able to support you with?

• Are you already working with plants, but have not been able to get the results you were hoping for?

 

Herbs have been supporting human health since time immemorial, but modern lifestyles have made that partnership more complicated.

 

Pharmaceuticals, mystery illnesses, processed foods, microplastics and manmade chemicals have all added layers of complexity that our ancestors never had to contend with.
