Spring forward with a cleansing and energizing, herbal infusion! Herbal infusions are therapeutic strength teas. They are gentle, yet powerful when consumed as part of your daily routine.
Check out this seasonal blend, brought to you by our clinical herbalist, Amber, to support you through depletion, allergies, and fatigue, as we move from winter stagnation into the movement and growth of spring. This infusion is a gently detoxifying blend, perfect for a spring cleanse! 🌱 Learn more about our herbal medicine services with Amber here.
Give it a try!
Spring Forward Infusion
Ingredients: oatstraw (avian sativa), stinging nettle (urticaria dioica), and fennel (foeniculum vugare)
Oatstraw: a sweet restorative yin tonic that is supremely soothing for the nervous system. Oatstraw is moistening and full of minerals - A perfect ally for dry, depleted, burnt out folks, who could use a hug and a mug!
Nettles: a blood building tonic that can benefit the body in so many ways, perhaps due to their high amounts of vitamins A, C, iron, potassium, and magnesium. Nettles are both detoxifying and nourishing for the adrenals and kidneys, and act as a natural anti-histamine, which can bring needed relief of springtime inflammation and allergies.
Fennel: a warming, calming digestive that regulates qi, facilitates the absorption of nutrients, and moves the stagnation that can cause bloating, cramping, and flatulence. These herbs really pack a punch - offering tons of vitamins and minerals in a highly bioavailable way, while simultaneously encouraging your body to rid itself of built-up waste.
Directions:
✨Place 4 spoonfuls of oat straw, 4 spoonfuls of nettle and one to two spoonfuls (to taste) of fennel into a quart size jar, or French press
✨Add 4 cups freshly boiled water
✨Cover and steep at least 20 minutes to break down the cell walls of the plants for optimal extraction of the minerals (you can steep for longer).
✨Strain and enjoy with a bit of honey.
Drink 2 to 4 cups daily for two weeks and take time to notice how you feel! ❤️ |

BRING US TO 200! At the time of sending out this newsletter, we have 197 five-star reviews! A HUGE thank you to all of you who have shared your experience with the community. If you would like to share your healing journey with the community, please leave us a google review. It may be featured in an upcoming newsletter! ❤️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Today was another 5 star experience at Pellegrino Healing Center. I was in need of an IV infusion after a lingering infection. I was assisted into the building by Tara and the care began! Kay, my outstanding nurse, made me super comfortable in a downstairs suite. Christine Pellegrino, my forever acupuncturist and Kay consulted and determined the best IV infusions for my ailments. Christine arranged a special place of comfort to me to relax and infuse. I was so pampered. Kay explained everything I was going to receive and why, then she painlessly started my IV. She talked to me to make sure I was handling everything well and then she left me to rest, checking in periodically to see my progress. Words cannot express the gratitude I had and have for these truly caring professionals. This experience was definitely above and beyond what I expected. What a wonderful service, one of many, that Pellegrino Healing Center can provide." ~Joanne F. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "If I can be honest, this was the best deep tissue Massage I've ever had. Mary DeMicco was my therapist and when I tell you that she knows her trade...she really does! Can't wait to get back to see her again. I feel like a new person in my body. Thanks so much for your professional services and time." ~Kevin L. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Easily the best facial I’ve ever had and definitely top 3 massages. The deluxe combo was a great choice. I feel like Chelsea utilized the time perfectly and didn’t rush through anything. She wasn’t overly talkative, which made my experience very relaxing. Definitely booking again!" ~Cristine L. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Have been treated recently for numbness in my left leg and foot, sciatica symptoms, and stiffness after a fall. Great help available Pellegrino Healing Center!" ~Harvey S. |
