Herbal Medicine and Supplements
Herbal formulas, exercise and diet are important and in some cases essential components to acupuncture treatment and subsequent healing. Patients who are prescribed herbs should follow the recommended dosage as well as be willing to undertake any dietary changes or exercise suggestions made.
Chinese herbal formulas are the result of a continuously evolving tradition that is over five thousand years old. Each formula is made from combinations of three to twenty different herbs. Given as a compliment to acupuncture treatment, Chinese herbs balance the organ systems and the interior climate of the body to support the body’s ability to heal.
Traditionally herbs are taken as a tea. For convenience and palatability we use concentrates that are made into pills, granules or tinctures.
