🌿 Devil’s Club Root Bark (Oplopanax horridus)

Alaskan Ginseng — Wild Strength for Balance, Skin, and Stress Support

Devil’s Club, also known as Alaskan Ginseng or Thorny Devil’s Club, is a powerful herbal root native to the misty forests of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska’s Tongass National Forest. Revered for centuries in Tlingit and Indigenous herbal traditions, this thorn-covered shrub belongs to the ivy family, closely related to American Ginseng — and carries a similar reputation for vitality, resilience, and restorative energy.

The root bark of Devil’s Club is prized for its anti-inflammatory, adaptogenic, and skin-soothing qualities. Traditionally brewed into teas or crafted into salves and ointments, it helps bring balance to the body during times of stress and supports the skin’s natural healing process.
