Chinese Herbal Medicine offers a time-proven solution to your health problems. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a complete medical science with its own theory of how human physiology functions, its own diagnostic techniques, and treatment modalities which include Acupuncture and herbal prescriptions. The cornerstone of TCM is Chinese herbology, which has a 3,000-year history of continual evolution and success. It is one of the most sophisticated clinical systems in the world for analyzing patterns of ill health and treating them successfully. Unlike the generic herbal supplements that you buy at a vitamin store or health food store, we offer customized Chinese herbal formulas for our patients. Herbs are very powerful, but to be effective they must be prescribed on an individual basis. Generic herbal supplements have a ‘hit or miss’ effectiveness. The important thing with herbs is a proper diagnosis and an individualized prescription.

TCM nutrition uniquely differs from modern Western nutrition in that it determines the therapeutic properties of foods instead of analyzing the chemical constituents of them. The advantage of this approach lies in its ability to customize to every individual’s needs. Furthermore, TCM nutrition takes into consideration such factors as method of preparation, body type, season, and one’s geographical location in determining the appropriate diet.
