There
are many qualities to the humble tea making that we all
enjoy. Our Sunday afternoon rituals of cream teas and
buttered scones on balmy hot summer days,
when our grandparents would adorn their best clothes, and
sit outside whilst the magnolia blossom's heady fragrance
filled the air with its subtle but heady aroma, and the
only shade was from the pergola covered in wisteria and
clematis, or the flimsy parasols so favored by the genteel
and elegant ladies of yesteryear.
From
the age old traditions of the Chinese Tea ceremonies to
the herbal chamomile  flavored
teas of today it still remains the most drunk beverage the
world over. The natural health benefits and therapeutic
value, inherent in all teas are only just being fully
discovered by the masses, and indeed the established
medical profession.
Although
our forefather's and the ancient tribal medicine men and
herbalists, certainly knew many of its wondrous qualities
for all
manor of ailments. Native American's have understood the
true value of herbal and plant extract teas for thousands
of years within their culture, and the small pockets of
tribal medicine men who still survive today are indeed
worthy practitioners in the art of Remedial Tea making.
Chinese herbalists, Steeped in their  ancient
mysteries, are today still using tea recipe formulations
which the western world are only just discovering and
being introduced to, yet for nearly 3000 years the Chinese
people have enjoyed their medicinal benefits.
We
have an extensive but not complete collection of exotic
and herbal remedial teas for you to savor and enjoy.
Many
certainly do have specific health benefits, however we
here at TC4Women Health Center are not experts in this or
any medical field, and would never profess to be, so do
take qualified advice from a Herbalist or Homeopathic
practitioner before partaking of any tea, other than the
standard supermarket variety freely available.
By
contacting the various tea manufactures direct you may be
given lots of free and useful information, after all they
certainly WILL know more than we can impart here.
To
your continued good health
