What is an Herbalist?

An herbalist is a trained practitioner who uses the healing properties of plants to support health and well-being. Herbalists create personalized recommendations based on your individual needs, combining traditional knowledge with modern insights into herbal medicine. They focus on addressing root causes of imbalances, supporting the body’s natural healing processes, and empowering clients with tools for holistic health.
