Schisandra chinenses
Schisandra berry is prized in traditional Chinese medicine because it possesses all five flavors recognized in TCM. Practitioners consider it beneficial to all five of the yin organs- the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, and spleen. It also acts as an adaptogen, helping the body restore balance when prolonged stress and exhaustion have given rise to physical complications. It is great for relaxing the central nervous system, preventing or treating stress-related immune system depletion, reducing brain fog, and calming stress-related palpitations and respiratory complaints. TCM practitioners also employ schisandra in combination with lung-specific herbs for persistent cough, phlegm, and asthma. Its astringent properties help to dry excess fluids, making it useful for diarrhea, frequent urination, excessive vaginal discharge, and excessive sweating. It also has an affinity for the skin, especially during eruptive or inflammatory skin conditions brought on by stress.

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
