Bramble Low-Cost Community Herbal Clinic
​

Our Model

At Bramble we believe that the health of a community is directly related to the well-being of its members and the health of its environment. Our sustainable medicine model promotes locally grown & ethically wild-crafted herbs to support regenerative practices and to help economically support the farmers and wild-crafters of our region.

Our Vision

One of the foundations of our sustainable medicine model is providing the community with accessible information about herbal remedies. Our monthly classes, workshops and events, as well as our in house Alternatives Lending Library offer general herbal information on a variety of topics.
​Our in-depth, personalized consultations offer a chance to gain information directly from a knowledgeable herbalist that is specific to your own health goals. Consultations are by far the most thorough means of sharing herbal information, but they are also the most costly.

Our community is fortunate to have many gifted herbalists. By fairly compensating these herbalists for their knowledge and good work (paid in part by their client and in part through subsidies provided by the generosity of our neighbors), we are further sustaining the well-being of our community.

With a firm commitment to accessibility and empowering our neighbors to properly use herbal remedies, we've created the Low-Cost Community Herbal Clinic.

The Low-Cost Community Herbal Clinic is open by appointment only, at a time suiting both the patient and the consulting herbalist, during hours when the store is closed to ensure privacy and facilitate a productive consultation. 

Each herbalist approaches their consultations in a way that is unique to their practice, however, every consultation will include a discussion of your health history and the health goal you have in mind, information about how specific herbs may support your body, an individualized preparation of herbs (teas, tinctures, salves, etc.) and suggestions for resources to further your understanding and empower your ability to take your health back into your own hands.

***
Full Consultation (1 Hour): $5-45:

Full consultations are great for getting your questions answered and recommendations for chronic health issues (such as, "I have been dealing with allergies for years, what can I do to relieve the symptoms?" or "I have chronic pain and inflammation in my knee, what can I do to help my body heal?). These consultations are done in private while the store is closed with the herbalist of your choosing. Full consultations include a thorough discussion of your health history, written recommendations, as well as a 1 ounce tincture, oil or salve, and/or 2 ounces of tea depending on the herbalist's practice. Additional herbs can be purchased separately during the consultation at 50% the retail price.

***
Follow-Up Consultation (30 Minutes): $5-20: 

Follow-Up consultations are scheduled with your herbalist after you have completed your initial consultation. Follow-up consultations are done in private while the store is closed and allows you to bring up any questions related to your treatment plan, discuss your path to wellness and make any adjustments necessary in the future. 

Since the Low-Cost Community Herbal Clinic serves those who could not typically afford private herbal care, consultations are offered on a sliding scale basis. 

Not sure where you fit on the scale? Take a look at this useful infographic to determine your suggested financial contribution:












​​​Herbal remedies, much like the problems they treat, take some time to show their effects. Please consider scheduling a follow-up consultation sometime after an initial consult in order to assess and perhaps reevaluate your recommended treatments and maximize your use of herbal medicines.

Please schedule your consults directly with members of our herbal staff. Please specify whether you are scheduling a Low-Cost Community Herbal Clinic consultation or a personal consultation with the corresponding herbalist.
