"I think it's going to become more and more popular and widely accepted," says Andrew Bentley. He is a herbalist in Lexington, Kentucky.

"Insurance companies are starting to pay for it -- that's an indication. Several years ago, the only people interested in it were hippies. And now herbalists are involved in government committees. So it's definitely become a lot more mainstream and I see that trend continuing."

Herbalists are generally paid by the session they spend with a client. How much they charge depends on their experience and environment.

"So how much you make in a year depends on how many clients you have," says herbalist Shawn Schultz. "It really varies from year to year, depending on your clientele. It depends on how much you want to work. It could be a little or it could be a lot. Some people devote their whole career to it, and others do it more on the side."
