Herbal Medicine

Herbal medicine is the oldest system of medicine in the world, known as western herbal medicine in the UK, which traditionally uses indigenous and foreign plants in the form of non-industrially produced pure plant preparations. At its most effective, these are prescribed as a herbal formulation tailored to the person, after an individual, private consultation. Herbalists are trained to diagnose and treat most health problems that one would take to a doctor, and herbal medicine is suitable for every one, from infants to the elderly, in trained, professional hands. Various ready-made herbal formulas for specific medical conditions are freely available to purchase over the internet, but rarely work as well.

Self-help when guided by an expert in the field can be effective, particularly for self-limited ailments, non- serious chronic ailments, or the kind of minor problem that you would treat yourself with something from the pharmacy or drugstore.
