Herbal Therapy

The Chinese and other eastern people have studied and used herbs as part of their system of medicine for thousands of years. Over the centuries they have developed complex formulas that can be used in conjunction with acupuncture or alone to help restore or maintain health. Unlike western herbology which tends to focus on the use of individual herbs, Chinese herbal formulas usually contain several varieties of herbs and are traditionally boiled into a tea or soup. However, you can now take many of the formulas in pill or capsule form.

One of our qualified practitioners of Oriental medicine can recommend and customize a formula that will work best for your individual needs. We carry a wide variety of pill and granual formulas in house. However, if you prefer, they can customize and order a loose herb formula that you can brew into a tea at home. Our acupuncturist are also trained to understand how herbal formulas will interact with your current medications so you can feel safe adding this valuable tool to your current health plan.
