The Amchi are local healers in Tibet: they have been treating the locals for centuries with medicinal herbs, which they transform into herbal teas, ointments, and others. Besides their knowledge of plants, Amchis have an acute understanding of the human body, and are capable of making diagnoses by simply taking a pulse.
