Chinese Herbs
Chinese herbalism is a highly sophisticated system with thousands of years of experience handed down from teacher to student. Each herb, and there are thousands in the Chinese pharmacopoeia, has been studied for its effects on organs, tissues, disease factors, excess and deficiency.

A standard herbal prescription has several herbs in a balanced group that help a person build where there is deficiency and move where there is stagnation. While I can obtain raw herbs for cooking at home, for convenience, I usually provide herbs as powders, capsules, tablets or liquid extracts. I do not provide herbs without doing an examination and traditional Chinese diagnosis.
