Why Betula?

"When I was first reading about herbal medicine I read how the birch tree can support those with skin cancer. As I've had my own trouble with skin cancer I felt very drawn to the birch tree. I've had some really spiritual experiences facilitated by the birch tree. I hope to bring that wisdom to my practice." Dr. Craig
