How do Herbal Medicines work?

How do Herbal Medicines work?


Herbal Medicine uses the whole herb unlike many conventional medicines that single out an active ingredient of a plant and reproduce it in a laboratory. Herbalists use the entire components of the herbs; they believe the harmony represented in the plant will transfer into optimal success in treating ailments.
The success of an herb is determined by many components; the climate, the manner in which they are harvested, bugs, soil quality etc... Once harvested Herbal Medicine can embody several forms:
  • Oils
  • Teas
  • Juices
  • Creams
  • Tablets
  • Syrup
  • Tinctures
