Chinese Herbal Medicine

Chinese herbal medicine has over 3000 years of history. Its use is based on a holistic approach, taking into consideration physical, mental and emotional states. The herbal mixtures are specifically formulated- tailor-made according to each individual‘s condition, after the consultation. By checking the tongue and pulse in addition to asking questions about the symptoms and lifestyle, your Chinese doctor can identify the imbalances in the body. You will then be prescribed a herbal mixture. Each mixture consists of 10-20 different types of herbs, each with specific function. Some of these have a synergistic effect in order to increase the efficacy of the mixture, while others balance out the effect of other herbs to increase the safety and  eliminate side effects. The mixture is modified when the patient’s condition changes. Herbal treatments in the UK do not use animal parts.
