Chinese Herbal supplement

Acupuncture Medical Practice uses herbal medicine to treat a wide number of ailments. There are over 400 different kinds of herbs commonly used for health care. They derive from grasses, flowers, roots, leaves, bark and other substances. The doctor will choose a variety of different herbs to make a formula based on the patient's symptoms or will perscribe a patent formula for the specific problems. Chinese herbal supplements were the mainstream medical practice for much of the China's history and has been used to save many lives.

Whether you are suffering from internal disease such as high cholesterol, gastritis, hepatitis B/C, diabetes, asthma, desertion, insomnia, cancer with chemo/radial therapy, hair loss, infertility, menopause, women's health issues, even sneezing due to allergies, we can provide you with a 100% natural herbal formula. These time-tested herbal formulas are brewed from plants and herbs. The Chinese Traditional Medicine believes that the herbs restore Qi to its natural quality and state. Qi (pronounced chee) is the vital energy that is the force of all living things.


Chinese Herbs Formula

Like acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine is one of the major branches of Chinese medicine. It is a powerful and safe method of treatment. When used correctly, it has almost no side effects. There are around 400 major herbs and approximately 5000 minor ones, which have been concentrated into powders. 90% of herbs are derived from fruits, flowers, bark, twigs, seeds and roots. 10% are derived from minerals or animals.

During the course of your treatment, we may find it useful to prescribe an herbal supplement. Chinese herbs are always combined together in a group called a formula. Your herbal formula would be based on classical formulas and then adapted for you based on your particular symptoms. You would have your own formula that would be changed according to your response to it. It is very convenient and easier to use by mixing the herbs with hot water, and drinking it like coffee and tea.

Acupuncture works to balance the climate in your body. It calms or stimulates the system. Traditionally acupuncture and herbs are often used together to enhance the treatment outcomes. Cinese herbs can help you and are gentler than western pharmaceuticals so generally you won't have the sam kinds of toxic side effects you can experience with western pharmaceuticals.
