Herbal Medicine:
Chinese herbal medicine has been used for thousands of years to treat all sorts of conditions—physical and emotional. An herbal formula is put together only after the practitioner has taken a detailed history about the patient’s condition, current functioning and past medical history. The formula is then created using anywhere from 3-15 different herbal ingredients, tailored to the individual patient.
Chinese herbs traditionally work on the level of the qi (body’s energy) and blood (nourishment), aiming to balance both physically and energetically. Modern research has shown the biomedical actions and benefits of many Chinese herbs. This information is also taken in to account when creating formulas for patients.
Supplements & Vitamins:
We use only the highest quality, whole food supplements.
Why do we need to take supplements? Isn’t eating a healthy diet enough?
- We don’t eat the traditional foods for optimal health anymore (eg. fermented foods, liver, and other organ meats)
- The soil that our food is grown in these days is less nutritious, mineral depleted and treated with pesticides, and other chemicals
- We have increased the amount of refined convenience foods in our diets which deplete essential nutrients
- Our environment has become a lot more toxic. We are exposed to toxins on a daily basis in our food, air, water, cosmetics, bedding, furniture, electronics, etc. These all deplete nutrients.
- Our gut health has become less optimal due to refined foods, excess refined carbs and sugars in our diets. This prevents us from absorbing vitamins and nutrients properly from foods.
