NATIVE MEDICINES
All over the world, plants used to be the main source of medicine. Through the ages, herbalists have passed down knowledge about the healing and restorative properties of plants.

The rise of modern Western medicine was initially accompanied by a decline in the practice of herbalism in all cultures and we came to believe that synthetic chemicals were the best medicines to treat illness and cure disease. Although many modern medicines made use of natural products as their main ingredients (quinine, morphine, codeine, aspirin, digitalis, penicillin, reserpine and ephedrine to name only a few), most Western people saw herbal medicines as 'hocus pocus' or, at best, an 'old wives tale'.

More recently, however, many people have come to realize that modern medicine does not always hold all the answers. There has been a return to more natural, ways of traditional medicine.

Special-mates.co.uk does not provide you with any advice or recommendation regarding the effectiveness of alternative medicines, but feel we should give information about them so you can make up your own mind.

A major provider of alternative treatments 'Native Remedies' has searched long and hard to find a wide range of natural and homeopathic remedies that not only help to treat myriad ailments and conditions but are also effective and professionally produced.
