What is Traditional Chinese herbal medicine?
Many conditions can be treated with acupuncture alone but when Traditional Chinese herbal medicine is taken at the same time, the improvement in your health will come sooner. Chinese herbal medicine comes in a variety of forms: pill form, powder form, raw form consisting of bark, roots, and seeds, as well as patches that are applied to the skin. Modern Chinese herbal medicine comes in the form of powdered granules. It takes only minutes to prepare and is a customized prescription tailored to meet your exact symptoms. Chinese herbal medicine does not have side-effects in the same way as Western medicine. This is not because it is made up of plants, but because of the method of diagnosis that is unique to TCM.
