Chinese herbal medicine includes treatment with substances such as plants, roots, minerals and more. Like acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine is used to re-harmonize imbalances in the body. Chinese formulas are comprised of herbs designed for each individual patient. This special formulation is crucial because these formulas must be delicately composed for the purpose of achieving balance in each disharmonious state of being. Even small deviations in dosage or herb composition can change the entire focus of the formula and therefore, the results. Chinese herbal medicine is often used in conjunction with acupuncture treatments. Please view our video on acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine.
