This is Kathy in Boise. Let me butt in. Last winter when I was having a lot of trouble with a very painful shoulder, PJ sent me some patches she got from her Chinese pharmacist. They smelled rather strong, but boy, did they help! I no longer have any trouble at all. My brother goes to an herbalist here in Boise, too. Although the "tea" he makes tastes terrible, he swears by it -- and he IS the picture of health! -- Kathy

Hi Nancy
You won't find any books that will help you with herbs.
What you need is word of mouth.
I live on Long Island which is about 1 hour out of NYC.
I have 1 acupuncturist/herbalist in Flushing. We were lucky to find him
through word of mouth.
Please dont' confuse the herbs (raw) that I am talking about with the
over-the-counter herbs in a bottle.
THe herbs I use and my mom uses are raw. These herbs are handpicked leaves,
roots, branches, twigs that are specifically selected for individual needs.
You boil them in water to make a tea with them. The tea tastes not so nice
but the end result is worth it.
My advice is to look around and find a herbalist who has been around for a
while. Someone who knows his craft. My herbalist speaks little English but he
has a translation book that helps.
My mom's herbalist is in Florida and he also speaks no Englist but uses the
book to understand what we are saying. He is the most compassionate man I
have ever met. He kisses my mom and loves her so much. We consider him
family.
If I can be of further assistance please please ask.
Lovingly,
PJ
