I work primarily with tinctures. They are both potent and convenient. Tinctures are one of the most effective means of working with herbs. Fresh plant tinctures contain the full spectrum of constituents that an herb has to offer. These are whole plant medicines. I personally make all the tinctures in the dispensary. My main focus is to work with those plants that are native or naturalized to the Ottawa Valley bioregion. We are fortunate to be surrounded by an abundance of medicinal plants. As an herbalist I am a steward of the green. I honour the herbs I work with and the ecosystems that support them. When herbs cannot be grown or wildcrafted in sufficient quantities or where wildcrafting would have a negative impact on local plant populations I use organically grown or ethically wildcrafted herbs. These herbs are sourced from suppliers whose standards I trust to match my own.

When your tincture formula and protocol is ready, we will have a brief meeting to review how to properly take the tincture and to go over my recommendations. This meeting will last about 20 minutes. This meeting will give you the opportunity to ask me any questions you have. There is no charge for this meeting.
