Too often western herbalists must rely on a previously made medical diagnosis and as a result lack the precision to achieve fundamental psycho-physical organic changes that will allow the body to reestablish a better degree of homeostasis. Traditional herbal medicine relies on principles
of Interrogation, Observation, Listening, and Palpation, to evaluate energetic differences and select the most effective herbal treatment approach. In this workshop, we will outline a model of how and what to look for in order to achieve a diagnosis that is most appropriate for the therapeutic use of herbs.
