The course goes on to present a wide array of important medicinal herbs - discussing in depth their habitats, collection, actions and indications - and teaches methods of effectively and safely cultivating, storing, and preparing these herbs.
The course concludes with a series of modules on the development of a professional herbal medicine practice, including skills in consultation, diagnosis, and prescription.
