Traditional Chinese Herbal Medicine
Chinese Herbal Medicine is the oldest unbroken system of herbal medicine that has continued to evolve to this day. Its roots can be traced back thousands of years throughout Chinese civilization. Since the 1950s these time-tested herbs have been scientifically researched by the Chinese government in modern clinical and hospital settings. Research on these herbs has yielded comprehensive data on organic chemical composition, along with physiological, clinical, and nutritional properties.
How Chinese Herbal Medicine Works
Chinese Herbal Medicine is a pragmatic and predictable system of therapeutics that can be employed to effectively treat most diseases. It can also be beneficially used while receiving treatments with allopathic medicines, often reducing their side effects and giving a more favorable outcome.
Of special interest is the influence of Taoism in Chinese Herbal Medicine, which places emphasis on oneness with the natural world and physical longevity. This provides an excellent system of therapeutics for syndromes associated with aging. Chinese Herbal Medicine has the power to rejuvenate the body, and offers a comprehensive system of preventative health care.
In the traditional Chinese medical model, there is a detailed diagnosis of the energetic and physiological processes behind disease. Equally refined is the Chinese herbal pharmacopoeia. Each herb has many properties that are selected to match the whole person in a balanced formula. I prepare Chinese herbal formulas, customized to meet the individual needs of my patients, using the finest quality ingredients, in convenient, easy to take forms, that do not require cooking.
