THE SCOPE OF PRACTICE OF A REGISTERED HERBALIST
The practice of herbal medicine is the promotion, maintenance, and restoration of an individual’s health primarily through the internal and external use of plant-based medicines. Whole plants or parts thereof may be harvested and processed by the herbalist.
During a consultation, methods of assessment may include but are not limited to case history, physical/visual examinations, and the review of diagnostic test results. Topics such as nutrition, exercise, hygiene, environment and stress-management will be considered and may be discussed through the consultation process, with acknowledgement of each individual’s abilities, lifestyle, etc. The use of other natural health products may also be recommended. The therapeutic requirements for each person are assessed and herbal medicines are prepared and dispensed in a manner consistent with the tradition and training of the individual herbalist and government regulations, including checking any prescription medication for any herb-drug interactions.
