Chinese Herbal Medicine by Houston Acupuncturist

Classical Formulations used for 1000s of years;

Derived from nature, plant-based products used to treat diseases or to maintain health are called herbal products, botanical products, or phytomedicines. These products, born from the earth, are a testament to the healing power of nature. A product made from plant sources and used only for internal use is called an herbal supplement.

Herbal supplements are all-natural and have been used for thousands of years as a primary form of medicine.

Unlike many prescription and over-the-counter medicines, herbal supplements stand out for their potential to contain entire plants or plant parts. This unique approach to health and wellness offers a range of potential benefits, including more holistic treatment and a significantly reduced risk of side effects, providing users with a sense of security.

For classical formulations, a provider must be a licensed Herbalist by the state, having studied Herbology at the Master's or doctoral level.

All of our brands meet high U.S. safety guidelines and have research-backed studies.  Herbal products and supplements do not need to be FDA-approved, as they are plant-based.  Only products modified by humans need FDA approval.

Formulations come in various forms, including capsules, granules, tinctures, and loose herbs.  For ease of use, we primarily prescribe capsules to patients.

It's a little-known fact that all medicine has its roots in nature, with herbal medicine being the source.  In modern medicine, most medications are derived from plants or bodily functions and use a plant or bodily function's chemical or metabolic products to create the medicine, primarily for chronic and severe conditions, but may not address lesser symptoms. Herbal medicine, by contrast, may not be life-saving, but it is a gentle alternative that can naturally improve lesser symptoms.
