Herbal medicine and homeopathy are different practices within the realm of natural healing. Herbal medicine utilises plant-based substances, including leaves, roots, flowers, and seeds, to promote health and treat various ailments. It relies on the plant constituents to provide therapeutic effects, often using well-established dosages based on traditional knowledge and modern research. The preparation of medicine is more straight forward Homeopathy is based on the principle of “like cures like,” meaning that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used to treat similar symptoms in someone who is ill. Homeopathic remedies undergo extensive dilution and are typically created through a series of potentisation methods. Herbal medicine usually comes in the form of teas, tinctures, powders, or capsules. Whereas in homeopathy, it is usually administered in the form of tiny pellets or liquid dilutions that are highly diluted and succussed.

Plants have been used for centuries to treat and alleviate various symptoms. Many popular pharmaceuticals have plant origins, such as aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) from willow bark (Salix alba), digoxin from foxglove (Digitalis purpurea), and atropine from deadly nightshade (Atropa belladonna). The effectiveness of plant constituents is well-established, but it’s crucial to use the correct therapeutic dose to achieve efficacy.

Herbal medicine can be taken in various forms such as teas, capsules, tinctures, or extracts. The method of consumption depends on the type of herb and the desired effect.

It is essential to consult with a medical herbalist before taking any herbal medicine with prescribed medications. Some herbs can interact, thus it is always good practice to consult with your medical herbalist.

While herbal medicine is generally considered safe, some herbs may have side effects or interactions with certain individuals. It's advisable to consult with a medical herbalist to understand any potential risks or side effects before starting herbal treatment.

Medical herbalists are trained in the therapeutic use of plants, including their properties, applications, and active constituents, to understand their physiological effects on the body. They also study anatomy and physiology to gain a comprehensive understanding of body systems, their functions in health and disease, and how herbal medicine can support and restore balance across these systems.
