Chinese Clinical Herbal Medicine

Chinese Herbal Medicine (CHM) is an ancient and well-established form of healing, with roots tracing back to the Tang dynasty. One of its most influential figures was Sun Simiao, often called “The Herbal King,” whose work laid the foundation for CHM during the period between 618 and 907 CE. The first school dedicated to CHM was established around this time, and since then, this herbal tradition has continued to evolve and thrive.

Herbal therapy is a powerful and versatile remedy that can address a wide range of health concerns—from fertility and menstrual discomfort to sprains and beyond. We’re excited to offer this time-tested medicine as part of your wellness journey. It’s important to share any medications or supplements you’re currently taking, as there can occasionally be interactions, though many pharmaceuticals can be used alongside CHM safely.

Over the centuries, CHM has developed a variety of approaches to better meet individual needs, with new solutions and more personalized treatments emerging. Herbs can be consumed in several forms, such as pills, powders (ground herbs), tinctures, patches, soaks, and more. Based on your unique needs, we will work with you to determine the most suitable way to administer the herbs. We use top-quality herbal products, including Evergreen, Golden Flower, Bluepoppy, and others. For specific conditions, we may also create a custom formula tailored just for you.
