At Dancing Willow Herbs, we take pride in our extensive apothecary of single-herb extracts. Each plant is prepared with care, using extraction methods tailored to its unique chemistry and vitality. Depending on the botanical, we employ percolation techniques with precise alcohol and water ratios for optimal bioavailability, or fresh-plant maceration for herbs whose delicate constituents are best captured immediately after harvest. Every tincture is made in small batches to ensure freshness, potency, and a deep connection to the plants themselves.
Usnea, sometimes called “Old Man’s Beard,” is a lichen that grows in pristine forests where the air is clean—reflecting its long-standing traditional association with purification and resilience. Known for its role as an immune and respiratory ally, Usnea has been valued for helping the body maintain balance and defense during seasonal shifts. Energetically, it is cooling and clearing, offering strength and protection to both body and spirit. This ancient woodland medicine carries the essence of the forest—slow, wise, and quietly powerful.
