Praise for Herbal Medicine for Women and Aviva Romm

Dr. Romm represents what our broken health care system most needs right now – the integration of ancient healing wisdom with the best of modern technology, all delivered straight from the heart. She understands that it’s not enough just to dose up herbs, prescribe drugs, or perform surgery, that as doctors, our job is not just to cure, but to facilitate healing of both the body and the soul.
~ Lissa Rankin, MD, Author of What’s Up Down There? and Mind Over Medicine: Scientific Proof You Can Heal Yourself,  and Blogger at LISSARANKIN.COM

 

Aviva Romm is respected as one of the leaders of herbal medicine and the midwifery movement in the United States. As president of the American Herbalists Guild for over ten years, she brought new life and vision to that organization. I don’t know of any other among my herbal colleagues and friends who have and continue to accomplish so much and at such a high level. Anyone who elects to interact with her as colleague or student should count themselves blessed and extremely fortunate.
~ Michael Tierra, Author of The Way of Herbs

 

Aviva is a rare individual. Few in the world today are equally accomplished as a midwife, herbalist, and  medical doctor. Few can provide patients with complete integrative medical care, from birth to end of life, as she can. And, few have the vision and drive to change the very basis of our health care system from one with a limited focus on disease management to true health care. Her knowledge and experience are but reflections of her character and deep commitment to healing people and the planet.
~ Roy Upton, Executive Director, American Herbal Pharmacopoeia

 

Aviva Romm has a thirst for knowledge that is unquenchable, and wonderfully, just as strong of a desire to share that knowledge and all the insights and wisdom it brings!
~ Chris Hobbs, PhD, Author of Vitamins for Dummies, Women’s Herbs: Women’s Health, Herbal Remedies for Dummies, and many other titles

This course has been amazing for expanding my knowledge; the depth and quality of the information is invaluable. When I signed up I had NO idea how comprehensive this course would be – it has added so much to my comprehension and confidence. This course has reinforced my inner passion for herbs and greatly expanded my knowledge about them.

~ Lark F.

You are absolutely going to love the course. It will change your life.

~ Lisa P

You are such an inspiration! Your course is incredible; it’s a direct reflection of you and your commitment to women and their health. Your textbook and emails are completely invaluable – your textbook has become my life manual! I have learned more in the past year than in 10 years studying herbal medicine.

~ Joanne C.

I absolutely love the student/instructor dialog and the excellent documents available to us on the website. The wealth of information and your virtual support gives me confidence in my own ability to become a competent provider for my community. Whenever I pick up my course books, I am overwhelmed with gratitude for your [Aviva’s] hard work to create a rigorous but understandable curriculum that is rich with historical, cultural, and medicinal relevance. All that to say, I am blessed – and blissed – to be a part of this group of wise women!

~ Sarah W.

Although I am an easily distracted person who has often times requires one-on-one interaction with an instructor, I have had no regret with going outside of my comfort zone and taking this course. And it’s 100% because of the awesome personal extras that Aviva adds. 
 Quite honestly, the course is superior to anything I have seen. I think for women’s practitioners such as myself there is no better course. I also think that for those who desire to be practitioners for all ages and genders would be able to provide much better care with this program under their belt.

~ Anji C.

Thank you again for all the work you have done over the years and presently to gather, organize and make this incredible info accessible for all of us, a service that so many of us for generations to come will benefit from.
~ Marcia C.

OMG thank you! Seriously, you’re so on top of it and such a good teacher, herbalist – and I’m sure a great doc. I really, really appreciate you and your approach to herbs, teaching, healing and life. I had a very unfulfilling and rather uncomfortable herb class with someone else today and it made me appreciate you all the more! 🙂 Big hearts to Aviva!

~ Vanessa R.

Aviva, your intelligence, experience and insight offered so much to everyone who attended your workshop…This gift would have been more than enough! But the love and respect you offer to students, and clearly to your patients, modeled what it truly means to bring grace and empowerment to teaching, the healing arts and plant medicine. Thank you, Aviva, for who you are and all you do.

~ Kris Miller & Tammi Sweet, Heartstone Herbal School, Van Etten, NY

Aviva is insightful, brilliant, caring, witty and quite funny; all of the qualities you hope a speaker will have.  Although both days were filled to the brim with information, pearls of wisdom, stories and personal experiences, the time flew by quickly.  Aviva is very skilled at capturing her audience and keeping them interested.  I found myself hanging on her every word.

~Correne O.

I wanted to share this story with you [about my birth] because if it wasn’t for this time I’ve had learning from you and knowing that my body knew how to do this, I would have been freaking out. I would have been scared to death in all honesty. But instead it never once crossed my mind that anything was wrong which made this experience the most amazing, life affirming event of my life. Thank you so much for your support and sharing your knowledge so freely.

~ Melinda S.

From the first assignment I sent to Aviva in the fall of 2006 to the last assignment in the fall of 2010, Herbal Medicine for Women has been incredibly enriching. This course has really solidified my love for botanical medicine and women’s health. Completing Aviva’s course has imprinted the confidence, inspiration, and empowerment into my path to keep on going.

~ Samantha A.

I absolutely love it! It speaks directly to my heart and this way of being. This course has been INVALUABLE to my midwifery work!

Just finished listening to both of your talks from the past teleconferences while making herbal syrups last night. Thank you for the compassion, care, and wisdom you expressed in both of those talks, I was moved to tears by them! I was amazed at how your talks helped me shift the energy with which I spoke to my acquaintance as well as gave me help with which questions to ask. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

– Courtney B.

This course was incredibly challenging and we were held to a high standard of knowledge and coursework. Thank you very much for putting the course together – I learned so much!
