Herbal medicine works to correct the imbalance of Qi from the inside out. It allows a deeper and more effective treatment than acupuncture alone as the treatment continues between visits.

Herbal medicine was first recorded about five thousand years ago and many of the formulas used today were developed two thousand years ago during the Han Dynasty. Current scientific research has identified many of the active components in herbs supporting their function in prepared formulas.

Chinese herbal formulas are usually made up of four to sixteen different herbs mixed together to address your specific symptoms. I use only the highest quality, GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice regulations published by the US Food and Drug Administration) certified pills from Health Concerns, Golden Flower, Seven Forests and Mayway.
