Herbal Medicine
Strengthen your body with herbal medicine to prevent disease and relieve symptoms of illness.
What is Herbal Medicine?
Herbal medicines are derived from plants and minerals and are used to help you regain balance in your body and strengthen your body’s resistance to disease. Prescribed to supplement acupuncture treatments, herbal medicines are an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Thousands of years of study have gone into Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal formulas. There is a prescription for just about every modern illness and condition from stress-headaches and diabetes to back pain from prolonged sitting. Formulas can also treat chronic disease associated with an organ system. Most formulas are taken internally while some are applied topically.
Herbal formulas usually contain several main ingredients that address the origin of the illness and the primary complaint. Additional herbs are added to assist the primary ingredients and mitigate any side effects.
Strengthen Your Body with Herbal Medicine
Most herbs are taken three times a day. Taken in the dosage and time frame prescribed, you will see results with improved health and wellness. When used properly and prescribed by a trained herbalist, herbs are extremely effective and safe with few to no side effects.
Herbal medicines are available at Acupuncture by Andrea as tablets, capsules, powders, teas, and extracts. We purchase herbs only from companies that have strict quality control standards.
Prescribed herbs may be used alone or in combination with acupuncture, cupping and moxibustion.
