Herbal Tinctures

My husband had been seeing a local naturopath for a year and when we learned that she was leaving we got a referral to one that was 4 hours away.  Kevin went in for his appoint to start treatment for adrenal fatigue and the visit went less then stellar.  He left the appointment feeling taking advantage of and was deflated.  After seeing how upset he was I decided I was going to become his "naturopath" and create a protocol to treat him. 

I started off with a herbal tincture that was filled with herbs designed to help restore his adrenal's ability to work properly.  The tincture was pretty easy to make and I am happy to say that is has been working wonders on his adrenals.  For the first time in years we are seeing progress and the chance that he will start to get better.
