Erica's
wholistic herbal consultations are a unique opportunity to explore your health
in mind, body, and spirit from a whole new perspective. An
herbalist strives to view each person as their own unique self rather than identifying
only a specific disease process within that person. Herbs are diverse and support
the body in a variety of ways including preventative health, nourishment, to compliment
other therapies in any number of illnesses or used alone for specific purposes.
This is in contrast
to the western medical approach which attempts to treat the illness or disease
often ignoring the person who has it. The western model works well in acute illnesses
and emergency care. However, it often fails in regards to preventative health,
nourishment and chronic illnesses and disease because this model uses one typical
treatment or overall protocol for everyone who has each specific illness. Whether
suffering from the common cold or chronic fatigue; two people will react and process
the issue differently. An herbalist honors these unique differences in individuals
and educates about the use of herbs to gently guide the body back to health. Herbalists
do not diagnose or attempt to treat illness or disease, but instead we educate
about herbs and their traditional, common and scientifically proven uses. An
herbal consultation with Erica is relaxed and comfortable and can take place anywhere
that you feel most comfortable. Erica has a home office available for most consultations. Please
call Erica for an appointment. 573-445-5053
