Chinese Herbs

How Do Chinese Herbs Work?

There are more than a thousand herbal remedies used in Chinese Medicine.  The key is to find the right remedy for the specific person at the moment in time.  Hence a detailed questionnaire is used in the consultation.  The remedies will change based on the changes in the body every week.  It is important to maintain weekly visits once you start an herbal remedy.  Each consultation takes twenty to thirty minutes.  You can get herbal consultation along with Acupuncture treatments or by itself.

The Chinese Herbs have been in use before Acupuncture. They are the basis for the main theories of Chinese Medicine. The herbs are organic matter, leaves, branches, roots, minerals, or animal parts that have been observed and used from ancient times for their energetic properties as well as their chemical effects on our bodies. Unlike manufactured drugs, herbs have an energetic vibration that affects our body-mind-spirit. For example, the effect of ingesting a root that has been in the ground for many months is very different than taking a pill that is made of its active chemical components.
