In the Clinic with Camille ·

2024/05/05

When a client's taking an herbal formula that seems to be resonating with them, they'll often want to know how long they should plan on continuing with the formula. When I first started practicing, I'd often give them a semi-standard answer centering around herbs taking time to work, guesstimates based on previous clients, etc. Since then, I've found an approach that feels more aligned with the way I want to practice, which I've described in this episode.

Branding and Website Design Isn't Easy Many practitioners spend a lot of time, energy, and sometimes money trying to cobble together a website and professional brand as they're just starting out.

As I was preparing for a lecture on ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), I came across a case report sharing information about a women who went to the ER with tachycardia, palpitations and other symptoms of hyperthyroidism.

Is Vitex Contraindicated in PCOS? You can probably tell from the episode title that, according to our current understanding, Vitex agnus-castus is not contraindicated for folks who have PCOS. In fact, there is reason to suspect that it may be quite helpful in this situation, at least in some cases.
