Chinese herbal medicine

Chinese herbal medicine is an essential part of traditional Chinese medicine, alongside acupuncture, Tui Na massage, Qigong and Chinese dietary therapy. Like food, herbs directly regulate the body’s functioning via the digestion.

Chinese herbal medicine range from simple food-like substances such as ginger and cinnamon, to potent drug-like substances. In the same way that we would use rosemary or thyme, some Chinese herbs have a culinary use, and are common in Chinese cooking and every day teas.

I normally give Chinese herbal medicine in the form of powders, packed into little sachets. Patients will then dissolve the content of 1 or 2 sachets  into a cup of hot water, and take this normally twice per day (morning and evening).

I am passionate about Chinese herbal medicine. I have had incredible results with them. Please click the   testimonials link to see some of the reviews.

I am a member of the Register of Chinese Herbal Medicine (RCHM), and I always source my herbs from RCHM approved suppliers who ensure that their herbs comply with CITES regulations on endangered species. CITES regulated species are not used in the clinic unless they come from a legal cultivated and certified source. I do not use animal and mineral medicinal. This because the UK forbid their use.
