Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
- Are Chinese herbal formulas safe?
- Classical Chinese herbal formulas have been used clinically for centuries and have a well-documented safety record when prescribed by a trained practitioner. We use pharmaceutical-grade herbs tested for heavy metals, pesticides, and adulterants. Your full medication list is reviewed before any formula is prescribed.
- Can I take herbal formulas with my current medications?
- Herb-drug interactions are possible with certain medications, particularly blood thinners and immunosuppressants. Your practitioner reviews your medication list before prescribing. Most patients on standard medications can safely use herbal formulas with appropriate attention to potential interactions.
- How are herbal formulas prescribed?
- Herbal prescriptions are based on your individual TCM diagnosis, not your Western diagnosis. Your practitioner takes a detailed health history, examines your pulse and tongue, and selects a formula that matches your constitutional pattern. Formulas are adjusted at each follow-up based on how you respond.
- Do I need acupuncture to receive herbal medicine?
- You can receive herbal medicine as a standalone service at our clinic. Many patients use herbal formulas between acupuncture sessions or as the primary treatment for conditions better suited to internal therapy, such as chronic fatigue, hormonal irregularities, and digestive conditions.
