Common Myths About Herbal Treatments

The internet has made natural remedies popular—but also confusing. Here are common myths we address during consultation.

Myth 1: “If it’s natural, it’s always safe.”

Many plants are powerful. Safety depends on:

  • Your health history
  • Other medications or supplements
  • Correct preparation and dosing

Myth 2: “Herbs can replace all medical care.”

Ethical traditional practice does not claim to replace emergency care, surgery, or necessary prescriptions. Our approach is supportive and education-first.

Myth 3: “One herb cures everyone.”

There is no universal formula. Traditional healing is individualized—especially for digestion, stress, pain patterns, and women’s wellness.

Myth 4: “More is better.”

Overuse can irritate digestion, raise blood pressure, or cause unwanted effects. Follow-up matters.

How we keep care ethical

We emphasize:

  • Clear expectations
  • Safety screening
  • Collaboration with your doctor when needed
