Introduction
Pedicularis functions as a muscle relaxer and analgesic sedative, and is favored as a chief smoking herb. Pedicularis is an herb that was enjoyed by many Native American tribes and herbalists of the Americas, and is still used today as one of the premier muscle relaxers and nervine sedatives. In fact, Pedicularis, especially the flower buds of Pediculatis densiflora, is perhaps one of the strongest legal smokable herbs there is, right up there with tobacco and cannabis.
