Herbal therapy is a modality of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is 3000 years old, and utilizes thousands of herbs, each one meticulously catalogued and documented. Rather than use a single herb in isolation, we use herbal formulas, in which herbs work synergetically to treat the condition and counteract any possible side effects. Using our vast arsenal of herbs, we tailor the herbal formula to you, after performing a physical examination, including tounge, pulse, palm and ear diagnosis, and accounting for your symptoms, lifestyle and constitution.

Herbal therapy works very well in conjunction with acupuncture. We use herbal therapy to help with:


  • chronic pain
  • migraines
  • gastrointestinal issues
  • chronic infections
  • autoimmune disorders
  • diabetes
  • weight management issues
  • allergies
  • food sensitivities
  • emotional disorders
  • infertility
  • women’s health issues
