How Phytotherapy Can Improve Everyday Health

For millennia, humanity has turned to plants not only for food but also for healing. Even today, a large proportion of medicines comes from active substances extracted from plants. The “simples” (basic plants and herbs), as they are traditionally called, are often the most effective plants because they are very well known and have been used for several generations.

Benefits for Women

Some plants contain phytohormones which, by mimicking or stimulating human hormones, can regulate hormone levels in women. This is particularly beneficial during important transitions such as adolescence and menopause. The phytotherapy course addresses these specific plants and their use to support female health throughout the lifespan, addressing pathologies of the reproductive system, premenstrual syndrome, menstrual irregularities, the perinatal period and female cancers.

Benefits for Men

Prostate health is crucial to the well-being of men, especially after andropause. The course emphasizes the use of herbal medicines to maintain a healthy prostate and treat conditions such as enlargement, prostatitis and prostate cancer.

For Children and Newborns

The arrival of a child is a time of intense happiness but also of challenges, especially when it comes to managing common childhood illnesses. The course explores how parents can use herbal remedies to treat conditions such as diaper rash, thrush, cradle cap, colic, respiratory disorders, earaches and contagious illnesses like whooping cough, gastroenteritis, impetigo and many others.

Support for Anatomical Systems

Finally, the Phytotherapy course takes an in-depth look at how medicinal plants can support the different anatomical systems. Herbs are studied for their ability to strengthen the immune system, soothe the digestive system, clear the respiratory tract, support the urinary system, maintain cardiovascular health, soothe the nervous system, treat skin conditions, balance the endocrine system and support the musculoskeletal system.
