In Chinese & East-Asian Medicine herbal medicine is an essential part of most treatments. There are hundreds of ancient and modern texts that detail the physiological effects of each herb and how they work together within a formula to bring about homeostasis. Herbal medicine also works in conjunction with acupuncture to extend the effects of the treatment. To put it into context, during any given week you have one hour of acupuncture and 167 without - and herbal medicine helps you make the most of those 167 hours without.

 

Each herbal formula is tailor-made for the person who needs it. Unlike Western pharmaceuticals that are designed to be "one size fits all" for a symptom or diagnosis, East-Asian herbal medicine emphasizes custom design of formulas to treat the specific pattern that is causing the symptoms.
