Antispasmodic herbs have an affinity for softer tissues and smoothe muscles. They can help relax muscles and reduce pain relief in specific areas of the body. Some pain relieving herbs act on the nervous system, such as St. John's Wort, and can help provide relief from nerve pain. Other herbs should only be applied topically, as a liniment, such as Arnica, due to its toxicity. 
 
My herbal tinctures are produced using fresh, wildcrafted herbs whenever possible, but may also be made from dry herbs that have been wildcrafted or produced by certified organic farms. 
 
Each herb has a unique solubility that is taken into account during the formulation process. Many herbalists mistakenly believe that using 100proof Alcohol makes for the strongest extract, but this is simply not true when we consider the many water soluble phyotchemicals that exist in many plants. By using appropriate dilutions of Alcohol and Water, I am able to achieve the most potent herbal extracts unique to each plant, ensuring a robust whole plant medicine that leaves very few compounds behind!
