herbal therapy

Chinese herbs are often used in conjunction with acupuncture for added therapeutic effect. There are thousands of herbs in the Chinese materia medica, of which about 300 are commonly used. You will generally receive a mixture of several different herbs in a formula that has been tailored to your condition. Herbal formulas are sourced from manufacturers who follow the standards of current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP), established by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and World Health Organization (WHO).

Chinese herbs are extremely effective; however it is very important to tell your practitioner about all the medications and supplements you are currently taking so that we can avoid any unwanted interactions with your formula. If there is any reason to suspect a negative drug/herb interaction, we will forego prescribing herbs and address your health condition in other ways, such as acupuncture, and dietary counseling.
