Botanical Medicine
Medicinal plants have been,
and will continue to be a valuable part of health care. These plants and
plant substances are highly effective and safe in the right dosage and when
used correctly with other herbs and treatments. Herbs can be prepared in
many forms - teas, tinctures or capsules. Naturopathic doctors are
extensively trained in both the art and science of botanical medicine.
Naturopathic doctors are currently the only health care providers in Canada
to be licensed for the use of botanical medicine
