Why is phytotherapy flourishing nowadays?

Our era is deeply marked by the quest for a healthier life, a return to Nature, to essential values.

With its gentle, deep action, phytotherapy is the ideal answer to the ills of our time which are a feature of society, such as stress, loss of sleep and weight gain.

The success of phytotherapy is also explained by the level of technical and scientific excellence which has been achieved in this field. Progress in agronomy, chemistry and pharmacology has made it possible to develop safer, more suitable, more effective therapeutic and galenic forms.

A recognised science

It was in 1986 that phytotherapy was officially recognised in France by the Ministry of Health as a fully fledged medicine. Incontestable proof of its efficacy is provided by the fact that medicines recommended in phytotherapy all contain specific amounts of active principles, which means that they contain active materials in higher or lower, but always known concentrations.

The efficacy of phytotherapy medicines is based first and foremost on the choice of plants that form part of their composition. Thanks to plant chemists, we know the species which are the most useful within one and the same family. We know how to determine accurately the ideal date when they should be picked. We can define the best growing conditions, the best region, the best soil, the best direction the fields should face. Finally, we know how to make the most precise selection of the most active plant part.

This plant selection is made on strict scientific bases. That is modern phytotherapy.
