Chinese herbal medicine

A classical Chinese herbal formula is built around your constitution and the pattern we are treating, then adjusted as you change. We prescribe concentrated granules you dissolve in hot water, or traditional decoctions for those who prefer them.

Every formula is reviewed after two to three weeks. We check for interactions with any medication you take, and all herbs come from suppliers tested for heavy metals and contaminants.

Best for: digestive complaints, cycle irregularity, long-standing fatigue and skin conditions.
