Cost of Medicines
The cost of herbal medicine varies as treatment plans are crafted for each person individually. Treatment may include teas, tinctures, capsules and creams along with handouts, nutritional and lifestyle recommendations. One month of herbal medicine treatment can cost from $40-$150. MSP does not typically cover herbal medicine, but some extended health packages may, talk to your provider for more information.
Sliding Scale
Sliding scale systems are an honour system based on everyone’s individual income level. They are a tool for ensuring equal accessibility to health care, regardless of financial resources, and thus require active participation. An effectively implemented sliding scale would result in everyone paying a similar percentage of their income for the same services.
It is my goal to make herbal medicine as accessible as possible. I offer a limited number of sliding scale appointments yearly. Please get in touch to talk about sliding scale options if finances are a barrier for you.
