What is Herbal Medicine?

Herbal medicine can be a very complex natural healing modality that uses plants and botanical material as a way to promote natural healing the body, whether physically or emotionally, and can be employed by both human beings and animals.

Herbal medicine has been a part of human civilization for millennia, as long as there has been illness or injury to people (and animals) there has been the steady pursuit of those learned individuals in some of the oldest societies on earth to combat these hardships. Since the beginning of recorded time, and in some cases dating back even farther than that, some of the most successful, readily available and cost effective natural healing products (at least by today’s capitalist standards of operation) have been the fungi, living plants, trees, grasses, and herbs that are all around us.

Today, after the scientific and economical phenomenon, of the pharmaceutical revolution of the 20th century, the plants and herbs used in the natural healing of countless generations of our forbearers has come into a new focus, of respect, and appreciation like a new, admired pillar of the community; And while it is still true that herbal medicine and natural healing mean different things to different people for some very different reasons, herbal medicine is becoming an increasingly integral part of our individual lives and modern medical treatments and solutions also, as more and more doctors are realizing that there truly can be ”to much of a good thing” when it comes to synthetic pharmaceuticals.
