Black cohosh is a native to North America plant primarily found in woodland environments.  It has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine to soothe irritated tissues.  It was also an important part of Native American medicine, where they believed the roots and rhizomes possessed healing properties.  The North American colonists adopted medicinal use of the plants, particularly to promote gynecological health.

Black cohosh is used in health supplements today to soothe menopause and premenstrual discomfort.
