Single Herb Tinctures
Herbal tinctures are a liquid solution of herbs and alcohol. The herbs in our Single Herb Tinctures are always harvested with respect and care at their peak seasonal potency and processed in small batches. Tinctures are produced with pharmaceutical grade organic cane spirits according to standard tincturing ratios. They are infused for one complete lunar cycle in glass jars and are then pressed and bottled.
Many of these single herb tinctures are indicated in herbal protocols for Lyme infections. See the link below for our current offerings of single herb tinctures that can be used in herbal protocol for Lyme and its co-infections.

Wood Betony (Stachys officinalis) is cultivated in our gardens in Mount Shasta, CA and tinctured fresh in organic cane spirits. A beautiful and easy plant to grow with many medicinal virtues, yet one that has fallen out of use in western herbalism.
Wood betony is a relaxant, bitter and astringent nerve tonic. These properties have been extolled in its traditional use and indicate its virtues in easing digestive problems and minor afflictions of the nervous system. Specifically, it can be used for acute tension headaches and migraines, as well as chronic headaches. It can reduce tension and the frequency of chronic headaches over time. Wood Betony has a grounding effect and is useful to clear energy stuck in the head that can create looping thoughts and mental exhaustion. It can also ease anxiety and pre-menstrual tension. In addition, it can be used as a bitter relaxant tonic for the digestive system. At one time this plant was so revered as a panacea , the Italians encouraged “Sell your coat and buy betony”.
