Herbal medicine is a major component of Traditional Chinese Medicine and has been used for over 3000 years in China and worldwide.

Before pharmaceuticals (and even the use of acupuncture needles) herbal remedies were used to heal and balance the human body.  Chinese herbs have shown their effectiveness under the scrutiny of both empirical study and modern clinical trials. These herbs can be used to augment the treatment of a particular imbalance, working together or sometimes in place of acupuncture and other medicines. Unlike most pharmaceuticals, herbal prescriptions in Chinese Medicine are tailor-made for the individual.
