A FREE VIDEO EVENT

With Master Clinical Herbalist, Researcher & Educator of Natural Medicine
David Crow, LAc

What happens when you combine the powerful healing properties of essential oils and herbs?

You experience effective, potent prevention and healing — but only if you know when and how to combine them safely...

World-renowned plant medicine pioneer David Crow will be your guide as you discover the compatibility of specific species and their therapeutic benefits for your respiratory, digestive, and nervous systems.

Have you applied medicinal herbs to help heal yourself or your loved ones, either as an alternative or adjunct to Western medicine?

Or perhaps you’re a seasoned practitioner and integrate botanicals into your work with clients...

In either case, you’re probably familiar with the beneficial effects of essential oils on the body, emotions, and mind...

These powerful natural remedies “trigger” the brain and immune system to respond in specific ways — empowering your body to heal and rebalance itself.

And of course, medicinal herbs have their own vast healing potential... allowing you to address common health conditions, chronic illness, and other challenges... and helping you harmonize your body, mind, emotions, and spirit.

What happens when you combine essential oils and herbs?

Naturopathic doctors and herbalists are not generally trained in use of essential oils… and aromatherapists are not usually trained in herbal medicine. So the answer to this important question has eluded both individuals and practitioners… until now.

Using both essential oils and herbs is not simply a matter of deepening healing — as in two remedies are better than one. Rather, the key is learning when and why to combine them... and how to do so safely and effectively.

Administering “complementary” medicinals through different routes (inhalation and ingestion, for example), you can definitely amplify their healing properties.

And combining herbs and essential oils is not difficult. It can be as easy as drinking an herbal tea while using an essential oil in a diffuser. There are many, many simple combinations, which are easy to apply.

World-renowned plant medicine pioneer David Crow is here to expertly guide you...

During this special, complimentary workshop, he’ll share with you his innovative approach to combining herbs and essential oils to increase their therapeutic power and depth.

In this hour-long free online event, you’ll:

  • Three herb-and-essential-oil combinations to boost your immunity during the cold-and-flu season
  • Specific guidance for applying potent, yet gentle combinations to improve your digestion and strengthen your nervous system
  • Essential-oil-and-herb “pairings” that every home pharmacy should have
  • The science behind combining herbs and essential oils — when to combine and when not to
  • How to safely combine different forms of the same herb to maximize the therapeutic benefits

To properly combine herbs and essential oils, it’s important to understand different therapeutic categories of medicinal plants, and whether they're compatible with the unique characteristics of the highly concentrated aromatic oils.

For example, aromatherapy works at a deep level in the nervous system — yet essential oils do not work safely (or effectively) at deeper organ or tissue levels, which is where complementary herbs can help.

David will share with you some of the formulas, reasoning, and rationale to help you understand why specific herbs and oils are used together... and how to combine them for exceptional results.

For example, to effectively treat specific health conditions, the underlying principles of both herbal medicine and aromatherapy enable you to use both, safely and effectively. David will touch on these principles as well during this free event.

Whether you’re a plant medicine novice or an experienced practitioner, you’ll receive scientifically backed information and practical guidance for combining essential oils and herbs. You’ll also be among the first to hear about an upcoming program with David, which will give you a deeper understanding — and simple instructions for daily applications — of this powerful, innovative method.
