Fundamentals of Herbalism
Fundamentals of Herbalism
Program - (64 Hours Cost: $1295)
Our
mission is to educate health care professionals about the science
and application of Herbalism. Healing Path seminars include
lectures, demonstrations, case studies and experiential learning
sessions using the herbs.
This seminar was developed for health care professionals
to understand and safely use herbal therapies. This eight
day course will give you the basic building blocks of an herbal
practice. We will begin by looking at the three primary perspectives
on healing: the cultural, social, political, and spiritual
origins of these perspectives, and how they influence the
way herbs are used as medicines. You will receive a thorough
introduction to the various forms of herbal products that
can be purchased and created. A hands-on workshop will give
you step-by-step instructions on how to make plant medicines
such as tinctures, infused oils, salves, and syrups. Well
also cover the use of essential oils and flower essences in
herbal healing. Finally, you will learn how to create herbal
formulas, set dosages, and create a basic herbal therapy for
acute and chronic conditions.
