This is a live interactive 2-hour workshop that includes herbs shipped to students within the US. You can participate from anywhere you have an internet connection! You do NOT need to be in our area to take this workshop!
———————————————————————
The population over 65 years old is growing rapidly and the US healthcare system is struggling to keep up with a huge workload for chronic and acute conditions specific to the aging population.
In this workshop, we will cover some of the common aging conditions that respond well to natural and herbal therapies. This is especially helpful for those who are sensitive to or can not tolerate pharmaceuticals and need extra care. I will teach you how to make and use several formulations that will help support and strengthen the body.
- Learn about soft tissue and joint issues like arthritis, muscle atrophy, bone fractures from falls and how we can support the musculoskeletal system with herbs
- We’ll cover recipes and herbs that can be used as a powerful herbal liniment
- How does the digestive system fare in the aging process and what changes
- Herbs to support elder digestive health, appetite and sensitivities
- Non-pharmaceutical nutritional support and how to incorporate this into your practice
- How to work with the fragile skin tissue of an elder, frequent bruising, skin tears and dryness common from dehydration
- Mental health and depression support for the elderly
