  • Are Chinese herbs safe?
    1. We only use high-grade non-sulfured herbs in our herbal treatment. Herbs have a balancing or regulating effect on the body and are gentler than pharmaceutical drugs. Side effects from herbs are possible, but are usually minor. The most common problems may include gas and bloating due to difficulty digesting the herb. If this or any other problem occurs, discuss it with your practitioner so he or she may change your formula. Our practitioners keep up to date on any possible herb/drug interactions.

  • How are herbs administered?
    1. The Chinese herbal Materia Medica is composed of over 5000 plants, mineral and animal substances. Depending on your condition, we might recommend raw, tincture or a patent (also known as teapills or tablets) form of herbs. Although the taste is sometimes bitter, most people find this acceptable given the health benefits.
