Chinese Herbology

WHAT IS CHINESE HERBOLOGY?

Herbology is the art of combining medicinal herbs. Herbology is traditionally one of the more important modalities utilized in traditional Chinese medicine. Each herbal medicine prescription is a cocktail of many herbs tailored to the individual patient.


HOW DO HERBS WORK?

Chinese Herbal Medicine is comprised of over 365 herbs. Each individual herb is understood by its nature, taste, temperature, and the meridians it enters. Herbs are the precursors for pharmaceutical drugs but offer less side effects since they are kept in their whole form. Chinese herbs consist of the leaf, stem, flower, or root of a plant as well as some minerals and animal products. A formula is a combination of herbs tailored for each individual based on their Oriental Medicine diagnosis. Each ingredient is purposefully used to create a balanced interaction within a given formula. Herbal therapy can be used alone or in conjunction with acupuncture treatments. When creating a special, individualized formula for you, our doctors ensure the prescribed herbs will not interact with other medications or supplements you may be taking.
