 Medical Herbalism
Herbal medicine is the ancient practice of healing people with plants.

 Medical Herbalism
Herbal medicines provide gentle and effective treatment for a wide variety of medical conditions, both addressing specific symptoms and improving general health.
Herbal medicine can be used to treat almost any condition that you might take to your doctor.
Fundamental to the European tradition of herbal medicine is the view that the body has an innate tendency to heal itself.

 History of herbology, medical herbalism - RMHI
Medical theories arose to explain and codify empirically observed patterns of illness; however, Greek physicians were wary of knowledge that did not lead to relatively immediate clinical benefits.
This series of journal articles addresses the political difficulties facing Chinese herbal practice in the United States by examining the history of herbal practice throughout the world, with special attention to the process of change within a culture's health care tradition that is initiated by assimilating foreign herbal and medical knowledge.
In a period of only several centuries, the art of medicine evolved through six of the developmental phases of medical tradition: traditional and institutionalized shamanic healing, the age of epidemics, the age of sanitation and use of potent medications, the understanding of side effects, and the establishment of a philosophy of human ecology.

 Herbalism
Herbal remedies such as belladonna (Atropa belladonna), ephedra (Ephedra sinica), jaborandi (Pilocarpus jaborandi), foxglove (Digitalis purpurea), and of course opium poppy (Papaver somniferum), will indeed readily convince the sceptic that herbs can have drastic effects.
This use continues in our times, when herbal medicine still is of considerable importance: the medical treatment available to 70% of the world population, in fact, depends on it, as the non-industrialised countries still rely on herbal remedies to treat their people’s ailments.

 Health science
There are two parts to health science: the study, research, and knowledge of health and the application of that knowledge to improve health, cure infectious diseases, and to understand how humans and animals function.
There are many different branches of medicine; the other health care professions also have specialties or focus on specific populations or settings of care.
Counselling, hospice care, home care, nutrition, medical social work, alternative medicine, pharmacology, and toxicology are all considered part of health science.

 History of Herbalism
Herbal Medicine is the most popular, the safest, and the most reliable form of medicine in the world.

And hence we find that the wisdom of Oriental medicine and diagnosis is successfully applied to everything from herbal medicine, dietetics and exercise systems to massage, meditation and acupuncture.
It may at first sight seems strange to apply to aromatherapy (a therapeutic approach that seems so distinctly European) the theories of an ancient medical tradition that originated in China.
Whichever therapeutic tool one chooses to practice, however, its most fundamental action according to Oriental medicine is that of its effect on the energetic aspect of the body and mind.

 Herbalists rights, legal and historical basis - RMHI
Medical entities should not be the focus of herb choices for improving the client's health, a quality that one does perceive.
A medical procedure or treatment protocol is legitimated by a series of scientific experiments that "proves" it has the desired action (not necessarily from the patient's but from the medical researcher's perspective).
Besides the medical phrases "cure illness", "prescribe medicine", and others, use of the title "Dr." or referring to oneself as a "doctor" may also be used as prima facie evidence of practicing medicine without a license, when used in the context of presenting oneself as a health practitioner.

Black cohosh is a cardiotonic, causing dilation of the blood vessels, thinning the blood thereby lowering blood pressure and improving circulation, Antispasmodic actions and aspirin-like salicylates that dilate the blood vessels as well as constituents that slightly depress the central nervous system make it great for relieving pain.
A recent article in the medical journal Lancet (Apr 6/91) states a more logical treatment would be a direct change in the lipids (by for example changing the diet).
Black Cohosh has no specific effect on libido.
