In traditional Chinese Medicine, food is considered medicine. It is used to nourish and feed not only your body, but your soul as well. The health of the digestive organs is responsible for nourishment of the entire body, ensuring that the body can run efficiently.
Herbal Medicine is a highly effective component of Oriental Medicine. Most herbal formulas are made up of roots, flowers, nuts and seeds. When prescribed correctly, herbal medicine can achieve results very quickly, with little or no undesirable side effects. Not only do herbs lessen the symptoms of an imbalance or disease, they also target the cause of those symptoms. This is referred to as treating the "branch" and the "root." For this reason, herbs are taken for a determined length of time, and do not need to be continued indefinitely.
An herbal consultation is included in each treatment session, and each patient is provided with nutritional advice based on their constitution and specific needs.
