Herbal Medicine Consultations

Herbal medicine is a wonderful treatment approach to address a variety of different conditions and presentations. A consultation involves a thorough intake and assessment of health history, in order to determine the appropriate treatment strategy. This extensive intake is necessary so that I can determine your body’s underlying predispositions (aka your constitution) as well as how it relates to your current presentation of symptoms. According to this philosophy, by taking into account an individuals tendencies toward the development of certain patterns, herbal medicine is able to treat the root of the condition, as opposed to treating the branch symptoms only.

Following through with a course of herbal medicine may require several changes your herbal prescription as your symptoms change. When you start to shift your health internally, it is common to become more aware of things that you may have not noticed previously. This is totally normal and to be expected as humans are dynamic beings and healing is not a linear process. I will support you through this process and provide feedback and guidance as you start to become more connected to yourself and your healing process.
