Join Alyce for this in-person medicine making workshop
Herbal Body Oils are a timeless and nourishing treatment, practiced by countless ancient cultures across the world to support healing and beauty both internally and externally.
Our ancestors have been infusing herbs into oils, fats and butters for thousands of years to treat an array of ailments including skin and wound healing, pain relief, injury recovery, topical infections, detoxification, beauty rituals and overall support with wellness and longevity.
The medicine making techniques shared in this workshop draw on ancient herbal wisdom, practiced once upon a time when pharmacies were true botanical apothecaries and focused on healing and recovery through plants as medicine.
