Unlike other herbal traditions, Asian herbal medicine theories rarely use an herb alone. Several herbs are combined in a holistic synergy to balance any harsh qualities while potentiating the desired effects of each herb. The correct formula for you is chosen from a vast repertoire that extends back through thousands of years of clinical experience and modified by your skilled herbalist to meet your needs today.
Formulas are available as pills, tablets, and powders for convenience - or, if you're really adventurous, as dried herbs to be cooked into a decoction, or “tea”, at home. Vegetarian formulas are available for most conditions.
