Sweet Woodruff - Asperula odorata
Sweet woodruff (Galium odoratum; synonym: Asperula odorata) is a perennial, winter-hardy herbaceous plant belonging to the star-leaved family (Rubiaceae).
The use of woodruff in herbal medicine is known, but due to its coumarin content, caution should be exercised due to possible effects on blood clotting and teratogenic effects. It is no longer used in modern medicine.
In ancient times, woodruff had various uses, such as giving scent to clothes and enriching the taste of wine. It was also known as an "anti-magic" herb, used to ward off evil spirits. For example, it was hung in bundles near windows and doors to protect the home against the plague.

Sweet Woodruff - Asperula odorata
Sweet woodruff (Galium odoratum; synonym: Asperula odorata) is a perennial, winter-hardy herbaceous plant belonging to the star-leaved family (Rubiaceae).
The use of woodruff in herbal medicine is known, but due to its coumarin content, caution should be exercised due to possible effects on blood clotting and teratogenic effects. It is no longer used in modern medicine.
In ancient times, woodruff had various uses, such as giving scent to clothes and enriching the taste of wine. It was also known as an "anti-magic" herb, used to ward off evil spirits. For example, it was hung in bundles near windows and doors to protect the home against the plague. In England this mainly happened on the east coast, where it was believed that the 'evil wind' came from.
The plant has a thin, creeping root with many suckers. The square, erect stem is 10-30 cm high, delicate, unbranched and hairy only at the nodes. The six to nine single, lance-shaped leaflets are 1-4 cm long and resemble star petals. Actually there are only two leaves; the rest are stipules of similar shape and function, arranged like spokes around a wheel.
The plant blooms in May and June. The star-shaped flowers are white and grow in multiple branches on a long stem. They have a tubular to funnel-shaped structure, are fused and usually have four lips. They contain a lot of nectar. The spherical, two-piece split fruits are 2-3 mm in size and have hook-shaped bristles. Pollination takes place by flies and other insects.

Therapist
A therapist is a professional who deals with the treatment of physical or mental illness as a profession. There are countless specializations within this broad field, each with their own treatment methods. Some examples are physiotherapists, dietitians, occupational therapists, homeopaths, kinesiologists, osteopaths, mental coaches and hypnotherapists. An important aspect of the therapy is the orthomolecular treatment method, in which nutrition and supportive supplementation play a role.
In contrast to symptom management, the focus of therapy is often on addressing the underlying causes of disorders and promoting preventive health. All aspects that influence health are taken into consideration, such as diet, stress management, exercise and emotional state.
Each client receives a personal treatment plan that is developed by the therapist. This plan is drawn up on the basis of consultations, questionnaires and food diaries to gain an in-depth insight into the client's lifestyle. In addition, various tests and examinations can be performed to determine the balance in the body.
