About the Book

Why are traditional Indonesian jamu treatments now finding acceptance worldwide?

Indonesian jamu herbal preparations and treatments are part of an integrated system of inner and outer health and beauty--encompassing natural herbal drinks, powders, ointments, lotions, massage and folklore. These have been used by Indonesians for centuries but until recently were unknown to most Westerners.

How, when, where and why were these treatments developed and used? What is so special about them and why are they now becoming popular worldwide? In the pages of this book, you'll learn about:

  • The secret world of ancient Javanese palaces where Indonesian jamu was perfected
  • The healers and jamu makers whose skills and knowledge have been passed down for generations
  • Dozens of age-old remedies, with recipes and treatments that can be used safely at home
  • Detailed information about the natural ingredients and herbs used in jamu preparations
  • How jamu is sold and consumed traditionally, and the female pioneers of the modern jamu industry
  • And many other fascinating topics surrounding jamu!

This book is the result of ten years of research and over 100 interviews with jamu practitioners and producers--from housewives and home apothecaries to CEOs of multinational corporations who produce jamu products for export. It is designed for anyone interested in holistic medicine, health and beauty.

Jamu: The Ancient Indonesian Art of Herbal Healing is lavishly illustrated with over 96 color and 10 B&W photographs and is the first definitive reference in English on this exotic and practical healthcare system.
