Herbal Medicine
Creating a living herbal home apothecary that is suited to you and
your family’s particular constitution.
Our Professional Herbalist tailors the herbal garden to have the right medicinal plants for you and your family.
We use the principles of Traditional Herbal Medicine which work with Western Herbalism, Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda.
Your tailored herbal garden will keep you healthy
and allow you to deal easily with health concerns that you are prone to.
A large part of the herbal medicine tradition is to nourish ourselves
in this finer way to prevent illness and promote a good and long life.
For colds we plant angelica, lovage, hyssop, sage and thyme.
For rashes and high fevers, plants like catnip, lemon balm, mint, chamomile, yarrow, basil, feverfew will treat these well.
For chest-based infections and coughs we would grow mullein, coltsfoot, marshmallow, chickweed and elecampagne.
Making teas, enhancing cuisine, putting the herbs in the bath; footbaths, handbaths, or whole baths, making oils or tinctures to preserve the medicines.
