Herbal Medicine

Clever Herbs

Herbal medicine is one of the oldest forms of medicine. Using the plants that surround us, herbal medicine draws on our knowledge of the various uses and actions of specific plants, to craft a bespoke remedy. This remedy may be made from leaves, flowers, berries, bark or roots, and may be given as a liquid tincture, tea or in capsule form internally, or applied topically as a wash, cream or salve.

Herbs are incredibly versatile and incredibly effective. Many pharmaceutical medicines are based on the active biological compounds of plants and may interact with other medicines, herbal or otherwise. Always seek professional herbal advice prior to taking herbs.
