Botanical Name: Stachys officinalis
Common names: Bishopswort, Bishop's wort, Betony, Stachys betonica, hedgenettle, purple betony
Wood betony has a long list of traditional uses in Europe - it was seen as an herbal "magic bullet".Modern herbalists prescribe betony to treat anxiety, gallstones, heartburn, high blood pressure, migraine and neuralgia, and to prevent sweating. It can also be used as an ointment for cuts and sores, and also used to make a strong infusion for use as natural mouthwash and gargle. Wood betony can be steeped as tea, applied in external applications, or tinctured.
Wood betony is also found in folklore for use in protection, nightmare prevention, and deterring ghosts.
