Frederick MD Herbal Therapy

Herbal Medicine offers significant benefit in supporting health for all ages. For children and elders dose is adjusted accordingly. Often in conjunction with lifestyle and dietary changes, herbs tend to nudge the body towards wellness. Herbs may prove beneficial with issues such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, low energy, high stress, PMS, menopausal complaints, joint pain, digestive issues, including irritable bowel syndrome, constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, and more. Safety with herbs and any interactions with current medications are always taken into consideration.

As a clinical herbalist I review all the body systems (i.e. digestive, nervous system, cardiovascular, etc.), review health history and current health concerns, lifestyle patterns, including diet, and make herbal and lifestyle recommendations. Taken into consideration are the clients' unique constitution and health issues.

I see clients one-on-one or with a parent if a child is being seen. Initial consultations last 1 1/2 hours, with continuing care appointments of 1 hour duration approximately. Clients receive a written explanation of the herbs and other elements of their unique protocol. - Elizabeth Bartlett, MS, Clinical Herbalist & Wellness Counselor
