Chinese herbal medicine is often used in conjunction with
acupuncture or as a sole therapy. These herbs are remarkable
in their ability to promote the body to heal and strengthen
itself. Unlike western medications, which simply control
the symptoms by masking them, Chinese herbs treat the
underlying conditions and truly address the root-cause.
It may take a bit longer to feel the benefits after taking
the herbs. However, they rarely cause unwanted side effects
often associated with taking prescription medicine.
