In this episode of The Revital Health Podcast, we explore the fascinating role of the placebo effect in clinical care, with a special focus on herbal medicine. Joined by expert herbalist Kris Walker, we discuss:
- The science behind placebo and nocebo effects
- How belief and intention influence health outcomes
- The therapeutic relationship and its impact on healing
- The art and science of herbalism, including the doctrine of signatures and energetic matching of herbs to individuals
- Why personalised medicine goes beyond just symptoms and compounds
- The importance of intuition in health and how it shapes clinical decisions
We also take a deep dive into how herbs, frequencies, and intention interact in healing, why understanding the personality of herbs is key, and how practitioners can harness the power of placebo for better outcomes.
If you're curious about how your mindset and belief can influence your health - or just want to geek out on herbal wisdom and energetic medicine - this episode is for you!
