For the many years Plant Healer Magazine has published, and for however long it will make its caring contribution, the reasons for its existence and the efforts to create it are these: The propagation and empowerment of folk herbalism, the medicine of the people. Inspiring herbalism's practitioners and celebrating its many practical and aesthetic arts. Helping deepen the connection and relationships between human kind and the natural world, raising awareness about the needs and conservation of wild plants as well as about their safe uses.
Raising the profiles of many of the most wise, intuitive, and experienced herbalists, so that more people can learn and benefit from the incredible body of knowledge that they have to share. And providing the skills and tools required to develop the most effective herbal practice possible. It is for this last purpose that we compiled the 87 original pieces for The Herbal Clinician, pulled directly from the pages of past Plant Healer issues.
25 different writers/teachers cover a wide range of topics related to seeing clients and treating their ailments botanically. While in no way complete or comprehensive, numerous areas are explored from a wide range of perspectives, including but not limited to: Diagnostics & Evaluations A first step in addressing any health condition is accurate assessment.
You'll read about constitutions, tissue states, tongue and pulse diagnosis. Herbal Energetics & Actions Learn about herbal actions and properties, from demulcents to stimulants, tonics and trophorestoratives, as well as the energetics of the cardiovascular system. Treatments & Therapeutics Articles on organ systems including circulatory, immune, nervous, respiratory and urinary, plus female health from puberty to menopause, maternity and children, mental health and neurodiversity, treating animals, and first aid and external applications such as treating blunt trauma and soft tissue wounds, tackling parasites botanically, and topical application of herbs and honey.
Clinical Skills & Case Studies Learn important practical skills and tools, herb selection criteria, drug/herb interactions, and more, and then read the enlightening case studies. Clinics, Business, & Practice Articles about teaching herbalism to both adult students and kids. Herbal entrepreneurship and making a living in the field of botanical healing. Community herbalism, nursing and herbalism, tips for beginning herbalists, and self care of the hard working practitioner. As with our other Plant Healer compilations, the pages of this book are taken directly from past issues of the quarterly magazine. One result is that some articles/chapters begin with a "Seeing People" or other department header at top, while other equally significant articles do not.
Hey, you. We're committed to giving you the best stuff out there, and sometimes that means we find other cool people making awesome things. It's like we're the best matchmakers for your self-care routine.
This product is from one of those super rad, small businesses that we’ve vetted and love. But since they're the experts, they'll be shipping it directly to you.
So, don't be shocked when this little gem arrives in its own separate package, all by its lonesome. It's just a special delivery from a friend of the family!
(Real) Ingredients
(Real) Ingredients
We use real pronounceable ingredients that are ethically sourced and high quality for your product.
We either grow or work with local growers to source for our formulas. This supports the local economy, gives us the most potent plants & reduces reliance upon fossil fuels.
We make products from herbs that will grow here over herbs from the Amazon, China, or Africa. Oftentimes, those trendy herbs are taken in an unsustainable way & local people do not have access to their native medicines any longer. Bioregional herbalism is where it's at!

Packaging
We are working to eliminate plastic from our packaging. Currently, 99% of our packaging is metal, glass, or paperboard. We are always looking for ways to eliminate microplastics from your body and the planet!
How to Use
How to Use
Herbal remedies, supplements, and tonics are fundamentally different from pharmaceuticals (and we like it that way). They are designed to restore your body and its systems to homeostasis gently- working with your body.
Specifics on dosages and administration for all products are in our FAQ. Find the FAQ in the menu under the "About" Section.
We post basic dosage guidelines, but keep in mind if you have more body mass or a faster metabolism than the average bear, you may need to take a larger dose than indicated. If there are hard-and-fast limitations on how often you can take the product, it will be listed on the package. Most can be used up to six times daily without problems (but we doubt that you would need to do that).
Remember, there are no "magic bullets" in life, and any product (herbal, pharmaceutical, or otherwise) claiming 100% success without knowing you, your constitution, and your lifestyle is lying and trying to get into your wallet. Often, herbalists (and MDs) need to try several products before we find the one that works for your unique biochemistry.
Feel free to email us if the product didn't quite do the job, we can recommend another that could do the trick. We are blessed with many plants that have the same action in the body- and often it's just a matter of finding the right one for you.
