Chinese Herbs
Chinese herbs are often used in conjunction with acupuncture for added therapeutic effect. While many cultures have herbal medicine traditions, the sophistication of Chinese herbal medicine is unsurpassed. Chinese herbal medicine has a long history reaching back several thousand years, and the resulting system is now used to treat everything from the common cold to many varying type of illnesses. There are thousands of herbs in the Chinese materia medica, of which about 300 are commonly used. Chinese herbs are extremely effective and normally have only mild side effects, however it is very important to tell me about all the medications and supplements you are currently taking so that we can avoid any unwanted interactions with your formula.
We must turn to nature itself, to the observations of the body in health and in disease to learn the truth.
