Phytotherapy is using plants in their natural form, either in tea, tincture or infused oil to support people on their healing journey. Herbalists utilize the seed, root, leaf, bark or flower in either a tincture, tea or infused oil. Herbal medicine addresses the root of the imbalance in an individual, not just the symptoms that are presenting themselves. The goal is to stimulate the individuals innate healing power by teaching your body how to heal and how to defend itself. Therefore the goal of herbal medicine is therefore not to prescribe a herb for an indefinite amount of time but to increase the body's own ability to thrive.
