Phytotherapy – Herbal Medicine

Phytotherapy – herbal medicine has been used by healers and medical practitioners for humans and animals for thousands of years. It is one of the oldest forms of therapy and an important component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) as well as Ayurvedic Medicine.

Based on extensive empirical material, herb books, and scientifically founded medicine, phytotherapy is an important component in the treatment and prevention of illnesses and discomforts.

Special forms such as PhytoKinesiology have developed from phytotherapy, which, among other things, works with the energy released by plants.

Our food should also be our remedy, as the famous natural physician Paracelsus already taught. "All things are poison, and nothing is without poison; only the dose makes a thing not a poison."

If the remedies obtained from plants are administered to the body daily in controlled doses over a longer period, they stimulate the organism to address existing disharmonies and initiate healing processes.
The power of plants with their ingredients, vitamins, trace elements, minerals, pigments, and energies are essential for health prevention and can be specifically used in cases of illness according to their effect.

Herbal Medicine Therapy

Chinese herbal medicine therapy primarily uses plant parts, but also minerals and some animal products. All of them have proven their healing effects over two millennia of application. A principle of Chinese Medicine is the realization that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Therefore, individual herbs and substances are usually combined with each other.

Phytotherapy or herbal medicine is an important component of all traditional medical systems and of the herbal medicine therapy of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Administering plant extracts is useful to support in case of complaints.
