Herbal medicine has been used throughout history and it can be a highly effective form of treatment for patients. Many of the current pharmaceuticals we take are based on the active ingredients in herbs. Herbs however work very well without the typical side effects of many pharmaceuticals.
Herbs are an important part of treatment in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Many internal conditions respond well to the use of herbal medicine. It is a safe and effective treatment when used properly. In my practice I use the highest quality herbs that have been rigorously tested for contaminants and exceeds the FDA’s standards for c-GMP (Good Manufacturing Process guidelines).
Herbal Medicine plays an important role in treating many conditions including, digestive disorders, infertility, high blood pressure, menopause symptoms, sleep disorders, anxiety, many women’s health issues and many more.
By creating a customized herbal formula, patients can be assured that their specific constitution is being addressed to restore homeostasis.
In prescribing an herbal formula, consideration is always paid to the prescribed pharmaceuticals a patient may be currently taking and any potential for herb drug interactions is carefully analyzed.
