Toning
Toning herbs help to strengthen weakened, lax or depleted tissue states by restoring firmness, tone and resilience. They help to provide structural integrity and organ vitality. They can be applied to treat flaccid, atrophied or loose tissue states caused by chronic illness. Toning herbs may also have drying effects, helping to reduce excess moisture and secretions. When used long term, these herbs can help to maintain structural integrity and improve organ function and vitality.
Examples include astragalus (Astragalus membranaceus), agrimony (Agrimonia eupatoria) and meadowsweet (Filipendula ulmaria).
