Traditional herbal medicine has a rich and intricate history in ancient Japan, deeply rooted in the cultural, spiritual, and medicinal practices of the time. Dating back thousands of years, the development of herbal medicine in Japan was influenced by various factors, including indigenous knowledge, Chinese medicine, and Buddhist teachings. This amalgamation of influences shaped the unique approach to healing that characterized traditional Japanese herbal medicine.
The earliest records of herbal medicine in Japan can be traced back to the Jomon period (10,000–300 BCE), where archaeological evidence suggests the use of medicinal plants for healing purposes. Over time, as contact with China increased, Japanese healers began to adopt and adapt Chinese herbal remedies, incorporating them into their own healing practices. This exchange laid the groundwork for the development of Kampo, the traditional Japanese system of herbal medicine, which became more formalized during the Nara (710–794 CE) and Heian (794–1185 CE) periods.
