Hans Horst Frohlich (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 30, 2001

Imagine gardens all around your home filled with healing plants--flowers, shrubs, vines, and trees selected for their medicinal benefits. Follow the vision of a famous 19th-century pioneer of holistic medicine, Sebastian Kneipp. This guided tour takes you through a "nature garden"--specially designed for harmony of body, mind, and soul. Then charts based on the garden's 300 medicinal plants and herbs show how to grow and use the healing properties of various roots, branches, leaves, flowers, fruits, nuts, bark, oils, resins, tannins, and acids. Treatment instructions help prevent or heal a range of ailments including colds and coughs, joint and muscle pain, heartburn and abdominal pain, heart, bladder, kidney, and prostate problems, as well as aid to sleeping and treatment for stress and depression.
